Five easy things you can do to help thatwasthen

I would like to be the first to say thank you, to everyone who visits our website on a daily basis. you help us more than you know. your support as a loyal visitor to thatwasthenmusic.com is fueling the potential of a tour, new gear, and future studio recordings.

Here are 5 things you can do, in under 10 minutes, that will help spread thatwasthen across the internets.

5. Visit our site every day.

The smallest of vibrations will send shock-waves through the ocean of the internet. Each time you visit our site, we receive an increase in ‘Page rank’, or our overall popularity rating on the internet. Google and Alexa are the two main ranking metrics on the internet. Google calculates your visits to our site automatically, thanks to Google Analytics. Alexa however, requires the installation of a Firefox plugin called Sparky. Sparky will simply submit user statistics to Alexa on which sites you most frequently browse (anonymously). When you visit our site with the Alexa Toolbar installed, it will greatly help our cause.

we rely heavily on facebook for maintaining contact with our fans. every time you visit thatwasthenmusic.com while logged into facebook, you will automatically be logged in here. this allows you to comment, post pictures and interact with the site. every time you post a comment or image, you will be presented with the option of posting what you have just written, to your facebook wall. as small as this may seem, it has a resounding effect on the traffic we receive.

3. StumbleUpon our site.

StumbleUpon is a ‘social bookmarking’ service. This means you can submit sites that you enjoy (appended with descriptive tags) to other who may be interested in the same thing. Like Alexa Sparky, it is a toolbar that is best used with Mozilla Firefox. If you are the first to ‘discover’ a site by clicking the ‘thumbs up’ icon on the StumblUpon Toolbar, you can type in the ‘tags’ that are associated with this link. Most importantly, you must select the “Category.” Being that we are a band that plays music, we naturally would appreciate you filing our posts under “MUSIC.”

2. Submit/Up-Vote our articles on Reddit.com

Reddit.com is similar to StumbleUpon in the sense that it is a community based on user submitted content. Users who submit articles will often ask a question in their “title,” while supplying a link to the relevant article. Reddit.com has one of the internet’s most active commenting crowd. People who frequent this site are among the wittiest, smartest, snarkiest users on the tube. Be creative and introduce your own interpretation on whatever it is we have posted. For every person who visits thatwasthenmusic.com, 10,000 visit reddit.com. This is your chance to express your love/interest/question/feelings to the world. We only hope to provide the proverbial stage for you.

We realize that 99% of your email is spam. We wish to change that percentage. Email a link to this site to everyone in your contact list who you think will enjoy our music. Hell, even if you don’t think they’ll enjoy it, send it anyways. You never know. thatwasthen has built their emerging empire on word-of-mouth and grassroots methodology. help perpetuate the growth and cultivation of something that you actually care about. for this, you will be eternally thanked.

I would like to add, that we have broken the 400,000 rank on Alexa as of writing this article. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your loyalty, support and love.
