This document discusses the key elements that should be included on a band or artist's website. It identifies five essential elements: 1) Star images or videos to introduce the artist and promote their music, 2) Links to social media pages to widen the fan base and promote the artist, 3) An online songs list to allow fans to easily access and listen to the artist's music, 4) Links to subpages for purchasing tickets, albums, or merchandise, and 5) Selling other related products to increase income and promote the artist's brand. Additional optional elements could include search boxes, image galleries, links to other sales platforms, and an engaging design to provide a full user experience.

1. Websites research
What does a band/artists home page need to have and why d these
things need to be included?
Chance the Rapper and As Lions

2. First element: Star images or video
These are the shots form their (chance as rapper and as lions) websites, they all have the
music video with the star image in it. This is the key elements to let audiences know that this is
their website, and catch their fans eyes at the first place to show their images. This is a
promotion way to satisfy their fans and build interest for them to keep looking at it. Also they
always will put their famous or the latest songs music video up there, which is used to promote
their new songs or help audiences to memorise their famous songs again.

3. Second element: Social media
In these two websites they all have the
links to the social media apps which s a
key element. They show that might in
different forms, like the word or the
symbols.
However the aim for that is to promote
themselves even more and give more
different channels or ways to audiences
and let them follow them and know their
more information and songs which help
to build reputation. So basically the
basic aim fro this is a promotion again
and it work with other app which wider
the audiences area and more
opportunity to meet more audiences
which build up the fan base.

4. Third elements: online songs list
These are the songs list which is able to let audiences listen online. They all have this part woo
which is a way to show all their songs to people. This is a easy way to check all their songs and
listen to them, also easy to audiences to see the update song. As they are making the music
websites so the songs are the most important part, which showing all the songs to audiences is a
best way to do and attract audiences.

5. Fourth elements: Links to sub page
These are the sub page for this website, these part can bring you into further more detail,
so normally is when you need to find specific thing then bring you into different things. I
think mostly is for the sale, like sell the ticket, album any other products like clothes etc. So
that is kind of way for you to buy things. So this is a promotion way to use the star to make
profit from a economic point of view, so I think this is a place for company to make profit.
Also making more sub page can make the website much more interest as looks like have
many contents and which means the fans can look at more pictures of the star.

6. Fifth elements: Selling other related product
This is the part of promotion of their related product. For example there are many stars can
use their own reputation to selling more other products to increase income. So website is a
place to buy it therefore promotion is important, let people to find where can buy it in the first
place. Also this always relation to the star or their album, so I think putting this up is aim to sell
it more and make profit.

7. Other elements
• Those pages show the key elements that should include in the music
album websites, but there are some other elements might include as
well, which can be different from others, and their aim is to promote
their songs, singers and their other related product to make profit
from sales.
• This might include: Search box, image pack, other selling platform,
these elements can make the website full of content and more
interesting.
• Also the decoration of the website is important too as it helps to
make the website much more interesting and build people’s intrest.
