Fan Pages: Standard vs. Custom? [OPINION]
When I began creating fan pages, I admit to staying away from custom pages. This is mainly because I know too little html and frame code, and the iframe apps that are "code-only" favor the knowledgeable while having no mercy on the rest.However, if you scour the daily bombardment of social media information like me, you will have no doubt found that creating custom fan pages are becoming easier to create due to some very helpful applications.
There are many click, drag and save type of applications popping up all the time, paid and free. Once upon a time, creating a website had eluded the novice designer, but now it's easy as pie. I can guess the customization of fan pages will follow the same evolution.How do existing and potential customers view fan pages? If they have a genuine interest in page content, do they even care whether a fan page is customized or not? Does it matter?

Social Media Basics: Measuring Social Media ROI [INFOGRAPHIC]
Measuring social media ROI continues to be the hot topic between social media thought leaders, marketing execs and CEO big-wigs. While many feel it's too difficult to truly measure the ROI, it's only made difficult when trying to connect a dollar amount to each "Like", "Follower", or "Fan".

Music and social media: Focus! Focus! Focus!
The music industry has been historically tough on the struggling musician. But with advent of the internet, mp3's, cost-friendly cameras and social media, a person can share with hundreds or thousands of people in no time.
Unfortunately, many undiscovered artist tend spend the majority of their time online spamming links to people whom have no connections to share, nor money to spend, instead of spending the majority of time producing a marketable, quality product to sell.
But how does a musician stay on top of making quality music, making the best use of social media, and doing both well? From what I remember of my short lived musical pursuit, it's not very likely with out help. In a future blog I will get into some ways to effectively use social media for more than just link posting and shouting "follow me".
I guess this post is a mere suggestion to the talented yet undiscovered artists out there: find help maintaining your social media presence, and stay focused on what musicians love: MAKING GOOD MUSIC. (ok and partying too)
As usual, I've added a little bit of cheesiness to visualize the point. Enjoy.
