Many composers attempt to set up a professional website via Wix. Wix can be a great tool if you simply want a few images on a website and a link to contact you. However as soon as you want to upload music onto your website for the world to hear, it can get complicated. If you’re then trying to add e-commerce functionality so that you can license music directly yourself online and generate sales then you’re going to struggle on Wix without a full on dev team at hand.
Specialist Website Builder For Composers
Unlike Wix which is more of a general website builder, Tunebud is a website builder and music distribution tool made especially for composers and music publishers. It makes building a professional composer music website or music publisher licensing site simple and straightforward with no coding required.
Much of the functionality of a Tunebud site cannot be replicated on Wix whatever you try. Yes, you can embed Soundcloud tracks or use Wix’s own music player but Tunebud’s music track management system allows you to not only play music from your site but organize it with tags, filter by genre, bpm and more.
Having your own professional player makes you look much more impressive and trustworthy to clients. Features like the filters and search will make it much easier for them to navigate your catalogue.
If you want to build your own music library or composer website there isn’t a better choice than Tunebud.
Other cool features from Tunebud include:
- Audio watermarking
- AI music search tools and AI auto tagging.
- Bulk upload and download settings.
- Run a subscription model for your music licensing site.
How Does Wix versus Tunebud Pricing Compare?
The standard platform fee for Tunebud is more economical than Wix – by a long shot. If you’re looking for a great, professional, mobile optimized website building tool for composers then you’ll pay considerably less using Tunebud than you would on Wix.
As you go up then scale and start adding thousands of tracks, yes you’ll start to pay more. This sort of track scale is more suited to music publishers who are running sync licensing platforms. Even at that rate, when you compare the cost of Tunebud versus building your own bespoke sync licensing platform the Tunebud rates are hugely more competitive..
