1. Share their images.
2. Share their music.
3. Share their news.
4. Share their thoughts.
5. Share their updates.
Although most artists does have official web pages, where there are forums and other online activites, social networks offer a much more personal relationship between the fan and the artist; on Twitter, you even get a chance to follow your artist and talk to them personally! So this is what I tried to do with the Saturdays.
This is a screen grab of The Saturdays official website.
You may not be able to see from the size of the picture, but on the top right corner there is a link to four social networking sites that the Saturdays have an artists profile on.
There are four main social networking sites, these are:
Facebook is more for the artist to share news and updates with. Some artists chose to write in the third person or have a representative doing it, but The Saturdays do it personally.
Twitter is where the artist will be really personal, the Saturdays will personally 'tweet' their thoughts as well as band updates.
MySpace
Myspace has one main purpose and that is for music. There is a music box on their page with their latest song which enables you to listen to them online.
YouTube
YouTube is the least personal, whereby you barely communicate or find out much about the bands updates. However, it allows you to watch their music videos AND any other video of them that has been uploaded.
My Personal attempt to contact The Saturdays!
Although the most realistic site for me to expect any kind of feedback from is Twitter, I decided to use facebook as I don't have a Twitter account. I did this by leaving a private inbox message for them; the likelihood of them replying is very low as i'm sure they recieve hundreds of these messages, but I won't let that dissapoint me. Even without their advice, I'm sure my group and I can produce a high quality video to their song!
