If you're an artist, musician, band, RUclipsr, or creator looking to maximize your impact and revenue with a website, this series will give you an inside look at what common design practices make entrepreneurs and marketers vomit =)

Hope this is helpful for you guys! Pay close attention to the continuity of purpose on this website - he's making the most out of EVERY visitor!
Also, I tried some new lighting and color correction on this video - let me know if it looks better!
Love adding the Facebook ad section! Very interesting
Wow, I’d have never thought to look at a website like Bruno’s for a model, but it makes sense. Thanks for pointing all this stuff out!
No problem Borin!
Wow. I like how in-depth these website reviews are. Good Stuff!
killing it again, on point!!
Kyle you crack me up! This makes me want to get designer merch and put it on every page of my website. And DEF retarget on FB for open carts, upsells, etc!!
Circa, love what you are doing with these videos. Coupled with the Indeprenur courses, these real life examples you are breaking down really brings the ideas and concepts you explore in the tutorials to life for us. Thanks for this. In this breakdown, you focused heavily on the FB pixels. Which pixels would you suggest are mandatory for an artist's webpage who is in the grassroots stage of their career?
Hey Circa, I’m an indie pro member! I currently have a wix site which I think will work well to capture email addresses as I know my way around it. However am worried about the e-commerce capabilities with regards to upsells, so would you suggest I have a separate shopify store that my wix site links to when you click on merch? Would appreciate the advice! Tom.
Hey Tom,
The Shopify store link-out strategy will work best. If you want to add upsell processes to your Shopify, use 1ClickUpsells by Zipify (their Shopify Page Builder is also flames). Wix is a really bad platform to build something serious on, so you'll eventually bump up against a need it can't provide. However, for now, a main Wix site and a Shopify you can link out to will do.
Good luck, and I hope that helps!
Idk how you do all these videos Circa! You're a machine! #RealestCiggaAlive
Really great to see a positive example to follow! I was wondering though, are some of the strategies being used only appropriate for high-profile artists? I had always thought an up-and-coming indie would want to have music/video before the fold, social icons, and probably a bio, but do you recommend we focus on merch and email sign up instead?
Excellent job Circa. Great Vid.
if Steve-O was on downers...and was a website guru...lol
Now i know what to look at when I'll be making my own website
I need all this right here...
“If was your designeeeerrrrr” is probably what you’re singing at this point lol
Gotta work on my site!
Nicely done
Wow! Hitting on all cylinders.
How would you go about getting something like this done for yourself?
Awesome
Every page = merch
Right? Whoever designed this is a stone-cold G
How would an artist get the most out of a website
Can you react to mine? Need some tips! 😊
I wish I was dead
wow I gotta make website run Bruno's
Good stuff - surprised other pros aren’t all doing this....
It is alarming how much they arent
You bring the gold every time 💪🏾 I listen to the Spotify podcasts on the way to gigs and rehearsals
Great video! You rock!! Thx.
Couple of questions tho, should the content for indie mortals that are not Bruno Mars be based on selling merch? What wp template or plugins do you reccomend?
i don't have a website but this is wild!
Very helpful .. Thank you.
Bro, you're brilliant...so much good perspective! Fucking nailed it
Modeled our website after Bruno's... Huge difference! Critiques welcome... www.hiltonparkband.com
It goes to show what happens when you see the difference in a top end artist that put trust in someone that has full understanding of creating dopamine spikes over an intimate connection towards their fans on the website. But it’s crazy that the company didn’t do any retargeting on fb.
This is really genius, but yet common sense at the same time 😂
Haha!! A banner ad on his own website! Lol. His new site looks like it’s banking. If it’s not, it should be! 😆
wow! i thought this was only happening in south africa but clearly not, the biggest artist right now doesn't have a website, only social media this is crazy!.
this vid inspired me to revamp our band website. great stuff!
fire !
gonna be taking some serious tips from this, thanks
No problem Mikey!
Genuinely, this blew my little mind. Will be imitating this website just because it's fab.
Ha, this was cool to watch, after already seeing the Post Malone one on how to do it so bad! Thanks
Awesome.
love this, instant new subscriber!
Wow! I never realised how websites affect behaviour!
Have you figured out who the pixels belong to and how are they using retargeting?
Bruno Mars has excellent branding.
Yes his site has it all! Making adjustments to our site now :)
Awesome example. Always good to know what to aim for.
Main stream artists are going to start doing what we are.
lmfaoooo amazing content! very informative as well as entertaining!
Added to the watchlist!
Lol I love when calling out things like this. Great video.
That website is sick!
thanks for taking the time to break all of this stuff down for us! I gotta step my merch game up like Mr. Mars...
Haha well don't set the bar TOO high - he's clearly got a merch-design team behind this stuff!
you are SO awesome.
This was a great and needed video because we just made our website, so this helped SO MUCH with having something to think about and a good example to base off of and compare with when it comes to our own personal page!
Dang! That hat was dope. I got to get me some Bruno bling.
His website just blew my mind
Me too! Normally Major Label websites are terrrrrrible
This was incredibly helpful. Crazy
This is awesome! Tell them what 's what Circa!
contest Steez
You're nailing RUclips style.
Damn I gotta step up my pixel and opt in game!
Excellent breakdown! I need to get to work on mine.
Great insight on how a great website should be designed
Go figure that Bruno is all over that @#$$!! He's a smart dude!
Smart AF man
Damn I need a website....I’ve been slacking......
this is something i would have never thought of!
wow this is definitely the most lovely video of them all
Bruno loves the pixel
This helps tremendously! Thanks
Looks like I have some adjustments to make to my website now haha
This video was actually really helpful
Very informative. Thank you.
Indepreneur sent me! love the videos
Very informative!
Good insights! Thanks for sharing those interesting thoughts
Sometimes you come across some gold mines!
It's time to get to work! Great analysis.
how suprising...
Very useful thank you!
This was honestly pretty eye opening
Haha your enthusiasm for an effective webpage is infectious dude! I'm beginning to think that maybe merch and subscription buttons are pretty important....... maybe....
lol THEY ARRREEE!!!!
This video is 🔥man! Always so helpful! - Will
Glad it helps man! Definitely some key design principles on his current website to pick up and implement in your own.
GREAT continuity of purpose - he's always trying to get you on his email or customer list. If not, he's making sure you're in a Custom Audience on Facebook. The last piece would be to actually be using those Custom Audiences 😂😂😂
Very Informative! Great Job!
Right on!
I appreciate that you're actually trying to educate us rather than reminding us all of how lame we are for not already knowing all of this. I see the opposite tactic in way too many other RUclips "tutorials". Much thanks for that. Rock on.
you have some good points here
I need a new website too!
Thank you, so helpful!
oh bruno? What are you doing
