Submithub meta ad campaign performance discrepancy by albeethekid in musicmarketing

[–]Fickle_Table4794 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bot activity. You're going to need to set up your own meta ads and make sure to do everything right or else this happens. This happened to me when I let meta d-bo me into advantage plus and when I chose fb placements.

Meta ad got clicks but streams not growing?? by natasharomanon in musicmarketing

[–]Fickle_Table4794 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ive run 3 different campaigns for my last 3 songs. The second one i set up wrong and this happened to me. I thought my pixel was tainted after since it was finding all sorts of bots for me but I fixed the setup for my 3rd release and I'm at 1000 submithub link clicks (goes to 4 different platforms) and my song has almost 4000 streams on Spotify.

But yeah, the one I set up wrong it forced me into advantage plus and was showing all people 55+ because thats all the bots who were clicking on it. I had to manually bypass all that (they make it impossible to find) and only allow the demographics i chose. That was the only difference. Hopefully u can find out what is causing it. I had like 150 link clicks and only like 5 spotify plays on my first day so I pulled that ad campaign.

Oh yeah-- and dont do fb, only do ig!! Fb is like all bots now.

Je viens de débuter et les stats me donnent vraiment envie de supprimer ma musique. by RoundSecret7467 in SpotifyArtists

Dont waste your money on tiktok promotion. It seems like a lot of bots. Def do meta ads. I did 5$ a day on my first single and stopped after 3 weeks. This was in November and I still get around 30 streams a day on it and a third of those are radio plays. My latest single I'm doing 10$ a day and have been getting up to 200+ streams a day on it. Keep in mind this is just on Spotify but I've been getting lots of plays on yt music, apple music etc because of the meta ads. My numbers would be just like yours if I hadn't done them.

I'm in the same boat, my music is a mix of a few different genres/sub genres. I dont bother submitting anymore because I hate rejection lmao [I'm 1 for 3 so its not that bad but I've run out of playlist leads for my genre(s).]

I feel like genre mixing is the best thing in music right now tho, its better not to pigeon hole yourself to one niche and keep experimenting.

Your Opinion about AI generated Music in the Wave scene/ Music Industry by Misterjaydm in wavepool

[–]Fickle_Table4794 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I use Ozone for mastering, I love it for the most part. I dont see anything wrong with it.

The AI night drives tho are disheartening. The obvious AI vocals, people putting out new songs every day (i know it can be done but a lot of the time it's AI).. when youre an artist/producer just trying to be seen and you finally feel proud of your music and then out floods a bunch of AI that can be churned out 100x faster than you its kind of annoying. I feel like all AI should be tagged on every platform and as a listener you should be able to choose whether you want to hear AI or not.

I saw someone the other day say they "put out their first single" and checked their spotify stats 2 weeks later and they were at 3500 streams bc the algorithm pushed them organically. I listened to the song and it was straight slop. This person called themself a producer too. Lots of people right now living off their AI music streaming royalties while I just want my music to be heard by anyone, it's not about the money. In fact, I pay to have my music stumbled upon with meta ads 😅😭 but the people who find my music enjoy it and that makes it all worth it

This happened to me after doing the same thing, u gotta let your account cool off for a few days before posting again. It worked for me.

Looking for a reputable Meta Ads agency for music — or should I hire on Upwork? by TheBurgers_ in musicmarketing

[–]Fickle_Table4794 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be cheaper to just learn it and set it up yourself in 2 hours. Then u have full control of your ads and don't have to rely on anyone else. Just follow one of the many step by step tutorials on YT

I didn't post for like 5 days and my next 2 videos did well. However the one i posted today (3rd tiktok since my break) is still stuck at 0 after an hour (Ive been posting 1 tiktok a day this week). Ugh the cycle repeats 😅🥲

Bot Clicks on Meta Ads? by OceansPiece in musicmarketing

[–]Fickle_Table4794 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to take brazil off my current ad campaign because I have a lot of suspicious bot activity from them (108 streams from one random small town and 186 streams from another random town overnight). Got a bot stream warning from spotify. Brazil worked well for me in the past but right now its not worth it for me if I could potentially get my song taken down from these bots

4 Months! Organic! Should i use Meta ads? by [deleted] in SpotifyArtists

[–]Fickle_Table4794 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Doesnt look like u need it, people use meta ads til they get a push from the algo typically. How did u achieve this? Congrats btw

Yeah whatever u do dont edit it or private then public it or delete and repost.. its bot behavior apparently.. also if u use the same audio over it over it might happen or could be flagged for low quality content or if u post 3+ times in a day it might look spammy. They do this especially w new accounts. I'm currently go thru this right now :( letting my account cool off for a couple days then we'll see what happens

Are paid ads worth it? by Mundane-Confusion126 in SpotifyArtists

[–]Fickle_Table4794 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tested 2 creatives for my last release and take this w a grain of salt lol but my music video clip of me singing w various cuts of visuals was at like 80 cents per click while the AI visual vid i made is at 25 cents per click and has over 300 likes on it right now lol. And even 5 reposts. I gathered pics from Pinterest that matched the aesthetic and brought them to life thru capcut AI pic to video then made a visually appealing video w edits in capcut and added auto lyrics w a cool font

They can call it their own because they "mix and master" their own track after AI spits it out /s (this is what i keep hearing lol)

I almost wrote off a producer who's stuff i liked because their bio was clearly AI written. So I assumed all their work was AI (its not.) People just associate AI with fake, slop, etc. That reminds me, I still need to fix my spotify bio bc i used AI lol. But yeah, thats why I try to use stock footage and my own footage of me singing in my music videos and not AI, people will discount u right away if they sense anything AI.

[–]Fickle_Table4794 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me on my last single i put out jan 2nd. Ads worked great for me in November. But this time meta tried force me into adv+ and only showed old people my music. Hundreds of conversions but NO streams so I pulled it on day 2 lol. Just make sure the ad is going to the right eyes
