Top the Top Ten Artist FaceBook Pages and Applications

Artists have found that social media such as Facebook and YouTube are absolutely brilliant if they wish to penetrate a competitive market.

The decline in physical album sales has meant that many people have to turn to the world of social media in order to remain viable within the industry. Instead of wasting time on temporary MP3 sales which are prone to hacking, you can try to establish institutional allegiance. That will help when selling tickets, increasing your fan base, and building loyal fans. Anyone can do it and there are free Facebook fan page apps that can make you look like the pro’s.

This social media outlet has created a system where users are able to classify the pages they like and those that they do not like. That enables the industry analysts to come up with comparative studies of how effective the publicity stunts are. For example Texas Hold’em Poker has 41,812,808 likes while FaceBook has 29,274,787 likes. We can then conclude that the public prefers gambling to social media although YouTube is not far behind with 32,405,357 likes according to the latest figures.

2) Comparing the various artists in social media 
One of the most successful campaigners is Eminem with 34,966,413 likes across the board. Lady Gaga then comes in with 33,243,776. Rihanna has 31,665,859 while Shakira is able to come in with 27,987,734. Justin Beiber has to settle for 26,438,414 while a sports person like Cristiano Ronaldo has 24,989,156. Katy Perry has recorded 23,856,443 while Lil Wayne has 23,633,736. Death is no barrier to social media supremacy because the late Bob Marley has 23,615,186.   Likes are meant to indicate the level of popularity that the artist enjoys.

 Some of the top brands and programs on the list of likes are interesting. Family Guy, Coca Cola, Linkin Park, South Park, the Simpsons, Harry Potter, Disney, Twilight and Starbucks are brands which are leading the way on this issue. On the lower end of the scale are the top classical artists that are not involved in the current music entertainment industry. Pablo Picasso is on top with 4,709 fans while the great Van Gogh has 1,604 fans. Salvador Dali is controversial but still can manage 1,024 fans.  Other notable names include Claude Monet, Renoir, Modigliani, Degas, Cezanne, Kahlo and Kandinsky. That analysis clearly indicates the level of obsession which we have with the entertainment industry as a whole.

The stars that are accumulating friends and fans are able to run the publicity machine to their advantage. They start off with the musical numbers which appeal to their fans. Lady Gaga and Rihanna are producing hit after hit. Eminem also shows the fact that you have to completely understand the demographics of the people that you are dealing with. He is controversial and there is very little known about her personal life in a positive light. Instead he has targeted a certain cultural revolution within the society and written music that satisfies millions of fans across the world.

You can begin by creating a Facebook fan page. After customizing your fan page, click on “applications” — search for music-related apps. These are third party applications, for the most part, and only use ones withpositivereviews. Remember, with applications, they need access to authorize your page on your behalf. Once they do that, they can access it from then out out, or until you revoke their access through the Facebook settings.
