Hi, thanks for the knowledge I really appreciate. Am an artist but I got to realise that I have about 5 Spotify profiles and there is one am so interested in. I used about 2 distributors so I don't know how the other 5 profiles where created some with songs I collaborated on and others my singles. I would love to only remain with one but I don't know how I can do it. I request to be advised on what to do. Thanks
Hi Andrew! Thanks for the great videos on the channel. Recently I came across information that UA-cam Music pays for listening much more than Spotify, but I could not even find an analogue of Spotify For Artist for this service. Perhaps there is less competition for the algorithm to start working in favor of new releases from novice performers. It would be interesting to know your opinion
Hey Andrew do you have any advice on how to better convert free Spotify users? I've been running some FB campaigns that have high amounts of link clicks but aren't directly translating into streams as they should be. What I've discovered after digging deeper is that free users aren't able to play my track when they clink the link. They either play something else from my discography or random radio songs. I also found that free users get a system message that says "You can listen to a song that's shared with you once a day," so if they've already clicked a link that day they aren't able to get the track.
Had to come here,really need this type of tutorials. I have spotify for artist account.but cant go through it,it doesnt continue. Cant upload or edit my profile
I understand what your saying but that data only takes into account anyone who actually clicked save or put it in a playlist, on your track within the last 28 days. If they saved months ago that would register in the lifetime stats for the track in the stats. Hope that helps you 👍
If me and my friend are dropping a song together but we are separate artist and this will be the first time we drop music would we need 2 separate distrokid accounts or just one ? So in the artist name we put each other with the & symbol ?? Can anyone help ?
Hey Andrew, everytime I want to upload an Facebook AD I have problems with publishing the AD... first they say it's scheduled and then they say Ad's off in the delivery section in my campaign. I also got problems setting up a Pixel for my ad.. can you make a video about in in specific? Would love to here from you. :) Kind regards.
My Spotify Profile was already claimed and i dont remember doing it, i have my blue check. but im not able to get access to artist spot. how can i find out which email or login was the one that claimed my profile? I have too many profiles but only ONE has my songs the others are blank. Whats can i do?
Hey Andrew! That was great! Thank You! I have a question: I am a new Spotify For Artists user with a new release. When I use the regular Spotify app on my phone and search my name 'Zo Kassam', the image at the top of my profile defaults to the album artwork of my first single. How do I change that to display my avatar or header image instead? Like for your profile, on the regular Spotify app, the image at the top of your profile is a square one of you looking right at the camera. How did you get that there? It is different from your header image on the desktop player which is a wide one where you look to the left. Please advise!
You'll want to go onto Spotify for Artists on a Desktop, go to the profile section and click on the top to edit the banner image. In there you can customize your profile picture and your banner.
How would you delete an artist profile from your account? I added an artist account to the wrong Spotify for artists profile and need to delete that artist.
I've got an EP and a song released on the same label, but I need to change the artist so that when I press it, it goes to my profile. Would I just have to claim it on the Claim my profile section?
Can i pay you for about an hour of consulting? I have a situation that’s very unique with my Facebook and Instagram. After watching a lot of your videos and from how in-depth and knowledgeable you are i believe you’re probably the only one who can help me. Please help if you see this thank you.
please somebody help me I'm having the worst time trying to set mine up, 2 of my songs have gone onto the same wrong account so I don't think I even have a Spotify artist page created and I don't know what I'm doing wrong
Hi Andrew, i didn't uploaded any music to Spotify but i have a music at he amuse. And it's waiting for the release day and few days left to release. Am i able to open a Spotify artists acount now ?
At this point you’d probably be better if waiting until the song comes out and getting direct access through your distributor. Getting it ahead of time takes about a week.
Hey Andrew I think facebook updated the buisness manager thing, my page look really diffrent from yours and I don't know how to use it. Pleaseee I need help I wanted to release my first single this week.
I've been using DistroKid for the past 3 years and love them. distrokid.com/vip/andrewsouthworth Thats an affiliate link, but I pay for their service myself and stand by it. Amuse is another decent option. I'd avoid TuneCore and CD Baby for the insanely high prices.
so i recently changed my artist name and I want to know can you only have one artist per email? i use felipe@blahblah for my initial page then i changed the name and do i need to use a new email to access the new page? I thought one email can hold two artist pages on it or is that not possible?
I've got a problem managing my Spotify for Artist. Actually 2 problems. First one - I can't log in on the Spotify for Artist Web page. I don't know why, even if my profile is already been claimed by me and verified (in fact, I can log in on my IOS Spotify for Artist app). As soon as I try to access Spotify for Artist Web it's asking me again to claim the profile... Why? The email address is correct. Second problem - using Spotify for Artist App I can't change the avatar image. I upload it, I can see it uploaded and then after a few seconds it disappears and the old image comes back. Can anyone of you help me please?
Hi :) , thank you for your informative video. I just found out that my Spotify page was hacked. The hacker has uploaded songs from other artists so that my account is now completely blocked by Spotify. Do you have any idea how an artist can take action against Spotify ? Could you also create a new account as an artist ? Or is then the account locked forever ? Thank you in advance . Best regards
Quick question: is it possible to submit to the spotify playlists a song form an upcoming album? Or is this possible only for a single upcoming release? Thanks!
hey andrew! Sick vid. Have you noticed you cost per conversion going up since you don't do automatic placements anymore? I sure have. Would love to know how your campaigns are doing now.
Ever since late 2020 things have gotten a little bit harder so i've had to spend more time optimizing campaigns. However i've still managed to get prices per conversion down to roughly the same place. For example, Chains is down to $0.13/conversion for just US, Canada, Japan, Australia, and UK, which is the best rate i've ever gotten for those expensive countries. Things always change though, every couple months I find i'm tweaking things a little bit to get back to the results I want. Now what i'm trying is using different landing page services, and much more creative options in the video to try and drive the cost down.
@@AndrewSouthworth thanks for the reply man! really interesting to hear how you're ads are doing compared to mine. I used to be down at like 18 cents per conversion for 1st world countries but lately just even marketing to all spotify countries I'm at around 30 cents per conversion. I'll definitely try different things now to get the cost down. Cheers bro
Andrew! So I bought your course but something went wrong. I can’t acces the course for some reason.. the payment dis go through tho. Can u get in contact with me so we can fix this? I emailed you too. Great content keep on going 🤞🏼💯
Dear Spotify: How can we buy your "special offers" if a song is 0000.1 cents per stream? Why I'm I spending $224 a month on a "special offer" when basic streams wont even cover the price of any of your "special offers"? This whole thing needs to be examined and re-examined for the "that makes no damn sense" crowd!!
@@AndrewSouthworth Are you kidding? They're all over the place! "Give us money and you'll have 200 listeners", offers! And they are sanctioned by, Spotify, too!
What do you mean? Every artist gets one for free when you distribute music. Usually your distributor can get you in quick otherwise it can take a couple weeks. I’ve never seen anyone struggle setting up an account.
Got my attention about hiring for ads
Hi, thanks for the knowledge I really appreciate. Am an artist but I got to realise that I have about 5 Spotify profiles and there is one am so interested in.

I would contact Spotify artist support and ask them to fix it. This is somewhat common so they should be able to fix it.
@@AndrewSouthworth thank you so much

I always forget to check this my stats are terrible lol I got a lot of work to do.
Can you please make a video if we can do a conversion campaign via Google ads?
Had to come here,really need this type of tutorials.
I have spotify for artist account.but cant go through it,it doesnt continue.
Cant upload or edit my profile
Couldn't some of the listeners in the last 28 days have saved the song lets say months ago? So how would you ever find a save rate?
I understand what your saying but that data only takes into account anyone who actually clicked save or put it in a playlist, on your track within the last 28 days. If they saved months ago that would register in the lifetime stats for the track in the stats. Hope that helps you 👍
Andrew have you done a video on Pitching to Amazon playlist and Amazon stations? Thank u
If me and my friend are dropping a song together but we are separate artist and this will be the first time we drop music would we need 2 separate distrokid accounts or just one ? So in the artist name we put each other with the & symbol ?? Can anyone help ?
Yeah you can add multiple artists and a profile will be created for everyone
@andrewsouthworth can u do a video explaining how to make a playlist on Apple Music and how to send people to the Apple Music playlist?

didnt they update it that u dont need a distributer
Nope they thought about starting a direct to Spotify process but the industry shut them down pretty quick.
@@AndrewSouthworth oh
I think it would be great to add some lyric videos for some songs
Visuals are key! Great point.
i.m a producer with landr
don't know what too do glad the video is here
don't know what too do with spotify artist
I wanna upload Music but i dont know how! But this looks easy!!
Hey Andrew I think facebook updated the buisness manager thing, my page look really diffrent from yours and I don't know how to use it. Pleaseee I need help I wanted to release my first single this week.

you can only pitch 1 song from ur EP/album i'm pretty sure, but i might be wrong too

how do i delete music that got uploaded with out my permission
Contact Spotify support, they're surprisingly fast at correcting stuff like this.

Hey I replied a couple days ago, not sure if you missed it.
@@AndrewSouthworth Ohh my bad Didn’t see it coming through! I’ll check it again rn!

What special offers are you talking about?
@@AndrewSouthworth
Are you kidding? They're all over the place! "Give us money and you'll have 200 listeners", offers! And they are sanctioned by, Spotify, too!
I think the only places Spotify themselves offer anything is Spotify ad studio and marquee, and marquee is a limited release thing still.
I literally don't know ANYONE who successfully set up an artist account. Something is really fishy here...
What do you mean? Every artist gets one for free when you distribute music. Usually your distributor can get you in quick otherwise it can take a couple weeks.
I’ve never seen anyone struggle setting up an account.
