[REVIEW] A little customization on MP3 Search Engine

Hello proxywhereabouts.
First of all the site looks like it is using the x10 mp3 script and these sites are pretty common, so what you need to make it better is making it different from the others.
Try adding some more stuff to it, here are some ideas:
1. Grab the MTV top 10 or Other Top for some categories and list it on the frontpage in columns, and link the songs to their match in ur site.
2. You can also make the same for artists, for instance make 3-4 columns with rap, rock, pop and house for instance and put 5 artists in each column(pictures). Put a link on the picture to the artist page on ur site, for instance: Artist: Eminem Link: index.php?search=eminem
I also have an mp3 site and from experience I say people click more on homepage songs/artists rather that going deep into the site.

Good luck with ur site

 

nice one

 

Thank you for your kind words Adrian, a rep has been awarded.

I will try to implement all those thing sometime later.
My server is now temporarily down due to the upgrade of system hardware.
Once it back online, I will sure to start working on some customization.

 

Great advice here...I am still clueless on these things but I understood it

Hi Muhammad,

(resend with publisher ID)

Hello and good evening. First of all, my apologies for sending this 
twice. The first was sent without providing my publisher ID.

I have a site which is a MP3 Search Engine. The site act as a proxy 
which is; crawl through the web for audio files. By using the site, 
visitors can listen to their desired songs and can choose to download 
the song for preview purpose since not everyone has decent internet 
speed to stream through.

I was told that if I place Adsense on the site, my account might get 
banned because these type of websites are considered as a copyright 
infringement and violate your terms of services.

I do have appropriate Privacy Policy, Copyright Policy & Terms of 
Services stated clearly on that site explaining everything.

So, I wonder if this is considered as violating your TOS if I placed 
Adsense on the site.


Thank you for reading and hopefully I will receive the answer that I'm 
looking for.

I do aware that you have millions if not zillions of emails asking for 
a similar question. I hope you will not reply the email with your 
policy as I have read them through prior sending this email.


regards,
Muhammad Shaiful Aizal Abdullah.

So, this mean even I have everything on the site, big G said no..

No adsense will ever be on this site then.

To all of you who are using adsense on your mp3 site, remove the download link if you want to use adsense or use other advertisers.

 

the idea is good but you have to redesign your site

 

Try to change the design

 

redesign the site.

Well, I would redesign the site if there is much UV flowing in but so far the visit are adequate and not in much favor of redesign.

Thanks for the input.

Referring to AdrianTec (which is now banned, wonder why :???) I will try to add some new features in it.

 

Does that mean streaming mp3s isn't against adsense tos or does download and streaming mean the same thing?

 

I'm not quite sure about that.
I won't be adding adsense on that site since thay clearly said its about copyright infringement.
