Preparing your musician page before a premium upgrade

If you plan to upgrade your All About Jazz musician page to premium and take advantage of the benefits, you'll want to make sure your standard page is complete, which will ensure the upgrade occurs in a timely and smooth manner.

General info, tags and influencers

To get started, go to your musician page and click the blue Update Page button. From there, make sure your thumbnail image is 200x200 pixels. If it's an older photo, it may only be 100x100 pixels which means you'll need to upsize it. Also, complete the general information fields, your regional information and add your tags and your influences. Tags and influences position you on other pages while helping drive traffic to your musician page.

About

Add your date of birth but feel free to leave the year blank. Once set, you will appear on our mega-popular Born Today page which is highly trafficked by radio hosts and podcasters. Make sure you bio is in paragraph form and check for grammatical errors. You'll also want to add as many press quotes as possible and cite your awards.
