Monarch Music & Media - Update 01/12/2014

Monarch Music & Media

Update 01/12/2014

Time seems to be flying by, we're now into the final month of 2014 and many of us seem to be caught up in a bit of a shopping frenzy with the Christmas period fast approaching. I couldn't quite believe some of the scenes I witnessed on the news from Black Friday and I really hope we're not going to see more and more of that madness in future!

As far as Monarch Music & Media is concerned it has of course been the busiest time of the year, with the main focus being to try and get more involved with Twitter as I'm discovering it's just as good if not better than Facebook for networking, marketing and just getting your message out there. What started out as a tool to simply enhance the website and bring in extra traffic has fast turned into a larger scale cross-promotion operation and I've now created a YouTube channel where I can showcase some of the talented but as yet unknown bands, musicians, games developers and artists out there. As a result of all this activity the Twitter page has grown rapidly in the last couple of weeks and has now reached the 500+ follower mark.

There's also a new address for the Google Plus page as I've had to merge two existing pages in order to simplify things.

So almost a year on from starting this business there is still lots more to be done but it's been an interesting journey so far that has taken me in many new directions and brought me into contact with some great people.

Thanks to everyone for your continued support and I would like to wish a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all who celebrate!

Monarch Music & Media - Site Update 22/12/2013

Monarch Music & Media

Site Update - 22/12/2013

The past week seems to have really flown by and as usual for myself thoughts have turned to some last-minute shopping in preparation for the holidays. The major website news is that earlier in the week I took a good look at all the content and while I am reasonably happy with the amount of items available I did feel the general look and feel of the web pages could be improved. This of course is a longer and more drawn out task now than when the website was created only a month ago with around 85 pages to edit!

There has also been some positive news on the marketing front after a good friend kindly provided me with some advertising space on one of the virtual worlds programs which gets quite high visitor traffic so it's nice to see Monarch Music & Media now has a presence in cyberspace.

Hopefully the site now looks more linear and uniform that it did previously and this should make it quicker and easier when adding new content and replacing existing content in the future but as ever feedback is much appreciated so any comments, thoughts or ideas can be posted up on the site forum or you can contact me via Facebook, Twitter and email or simply reply directly to the site update blog.

As we approach the year end I think the next steps will be to add some more live eBay auction links to some of the pages that currently do not have them and possibly a little more content on the mp3 front.

There is still plenty of space for reciprocal linking so if you would like a link to your business or personal website, Facebook page, blog etc please get in touch and a banner ad or logo can be created.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to those celebrating!

Monarch Music & Media - Site Update 07/12/2013

Monarch Music & Media

Site Update - 07/12/2013

Into December and Monarch Music & Media is already 3 weeks old!

On reviewing some of the media content again I noticed that some of the CD pages were a little sparse compared to the Vinyl and DVD areas so this week I have been focussing on adding links in the House, Jazz, Pop, R&B and Trance CD sections, 60 in total and covering a wide range of musical tastes with lots of them being bestsellers and current chart toppers.

I'd like to be really flexible with the site regarding content so again visitor feedback and opinion is very much encouraged and appreciated, if there are any music genres or artists, tv or movie categories etc in particular that you would like to see more of for sale then you can either leave a message on the website forum, send an email to contact@monarchmusicmedia.com or find me via Facebook or Twitter.

I've not had much time at all to turn my attentions to my own Christmas shopping this week but I hope it isn't stressing everyone out so far!

That's about all from me for now so enjoy the rest of the weekend everyone :)
