Websites & portfolios
How to create a website for musicians
Most musicians do not need a bespoke website. They need one professional page that answers the questions a promoter, a venue or a journalist actually asks: who are you, what do you sound like, what have you done, where can I hear you, and how do I book you.
How to create a website for your DJ career
A DJ gets booked on evidence: what you play, where you have played, and what a room looks like when you play. A DJ website is where that evidence lives in one link, instead of being scattered across SoundCloud, Instagram and a WhatsApp thread.
How to build an artist portfolio
A portfolio is not an archive. It is a curated argument for why someone should work with you, ordered so the strongest piece is first and the story is obvious in thirty seconds.
How to build a DJ portfolio
A DJ portfolio answers one question for a promoter: will this person work in my room, on my night? Everything in it should help answer that.
Booking & network
Artist booking: how it works on Arvenue
Most booking conversations fail on missing information: no date, no times, no fee, no capacity. Arvenue connects music professionals and venues and keeps the offer structured, so both sides know what is being agreed.
DJ booking: getting booked and finding DJs
This page covers both sides of a DJ booking: what a DJ can do to be found and chosen, and what a promoter or venue should look at before sending an offer.
A network for music professionals
The live industry runs on relationships, but the relationships start with being visible to the right people. A professional network for music is not about followers; it is about being findable by the people who hire.
Artist network
Artists get most of their work through other artists, promoters and venues who already know what they do. An artist network makes that first introduction possible without a mutual friend.
DJ network
For DJs, the network is the career. Residencies, warm-up slots and festival bookings mostly come from promoters and other DJs who can see what you do.
Events & guestlists
How to share your tour dates
A tour dates page is the most-visited part of most artist websites, and the most often out of date. The fix is not design — it is making updates take seconds.
How to manage an event guestlist
Guestlists fall apart in DMs and spreadsheets. What you need is one link to collect names, a way to approve them, a hard capacity, and a list the door can read without asking you anything.
How to find DJs, musicians and crew for an event
Booking well is mostly preparation. If you know the room, the audience, the budget and the times before you start searching, the rest takes an afternoon.
