Summary: If you look at addresses on the street, your address points to the dirt that your house sits on. On the Internet, your address can be redirected to anything (your website, your facebook, etc). When you purchase your domain name using Godaddy.com, or namecheap.com, you want to make sure your domain name is set to auto-renew so that other people can't purchase YOUR domain name. Also you don't want your manager, lawyer, record label, etc to own the domain name. YOU should own your domain name (side point when creating a band you need to specify who owns the domain name, and if someone quits they should sign away rights to the domain name). If found Sara Haze through watching the television show Ruby on Netflix. I loved the song Lovely so much I Googled the lyrics. I then found Sarah on Youtube, and then went to her website (which doesn't exist).It's owned by some website design company. It's very weird, and a very strange situation. I've always said "make it EASY to buy and connect with people." I had to search, and finally find her on twitter, and hope she reads her tweets. I would love to have her as a guest on the show. So what do we learn from this? 1. Have your website ready before submitting your music to be used in movies, tv, etc. 2. Always own your domain name. 3. Music MOVES people and when your music touches them they will ask Uncle Google to help find you. 4. Put your lyrics on your website as people may be Googling for them (make it easy to be found). 5. Sara is missing the ability to collect email addresses and build her community. Sara I think you are awesome, and wish you the best. Please let me know if I can help.
