OK....
I know I may sound a bit cryptic here but I really don't mean to.
If anyone here has their songs on soundclick.com have you noticed any odd behavior regarding the amount of song plays they're getting?
Thanks...and sorry I've not provided more detail on this post at this time.
Carry on....

Hi Wayne, can't say that I can confirm any odd happenings regarding the number of songplays I am getting. They are trending just fine in accordance with my promoting songs on Facebook, etc.
What do you see?

Hi Wayne, can't say that I can confirm any odd happenings regarding the number of songplays I am getting. They are trending just fine in accordance with my promoting songs. What do you see? Hey Mike…. Thanks for responding to my cryptic query. Well….here goes. I’ve had my songs on soundclick since November 2008 and currently I have (15) on site. I’ve never really promoted my material but do get a slight bit of activity when I ask for any comments on a mix on occasion. I have got as many as 20 plays or so during any random month. Usually, it’s just 5-10 a month at best and I had (3) months this year that had NO plays at all. I’m aware the amount of listens on any music site means little in the BIG song writing picture but it’s a mild ego massage that some were obliging enough to stop by and give a listen….and I’m thankful. On 12/11, like everyone else, I go to check if anyone did give a listen. I about fainted….152 plays with an almost equal amount of listeners for each song. I think “ok…that’s cool, just a wild random fluke and maybe next decade I’ll get lucky again” Last night, after getting home from my wife’s company Christmas party, I decide to check in with my normal music site routine. I go to soundclick and check my page….706 plays! Again… with an almost equal amount of listeners ranging from 45-49 plays for each song….”come on (I ask myself), this song play graph has to be wrong!” I pick myself up off the floor, shake my head a bit and begin to question the accuracy and think the site has been tampered with. Oh…and no ‘comments’ on any of them which seems strange given that many plays. Hence…this post. I swear to Odin and the Sun God Ra….I’m not fishing here….but, the numbers just didn’t add up to me and I still question it in my third eye mind. I only go to two music sites and this one being the most active for me for the last several months. Lastly, if any here were part of that group….a sincere thanks. That’s my story….sorry about the novel. A good weekend to all.

I'd been considering joining Soundclick...and then I read the reviews online. I always Google a site before I jump in. I know negative reviews are more likely to be posted than positive ones, but what I saw made me rethink joining. Just wondered what folks here on PGM think of Soundclick. Opinions? Problems?
Thanks,
Bob

Thanks,
Bob I've been on soundclick since 2002. It was my main music site for years until soundcloud came along, I joined soundcloud around five years ago. I still have a profile on soundclick but don't maintain it anymore. Personally I've had much better luck on soundcloud than soundclick, but it takes some work to build up a following on any site I guess. But, you have nothing to lose! You can setup a basic account there for free, try it and see if it works for you.

I have had a demo. on Soundclick for at least 6 years. I send people there to hear my band. I am not aware that there is a a "play" count. I just checked into my account and still cannot find a list of plays anywhere.

I just checked into my account and still cannot find a list of plays anywhere. Upper right, click on Account, choose you artist name and you will see counts for all songs. Hope, this helps. Been on SC forever as well ... I do upload my new music there, advertise it and I get a decent amount of plays, typically. Looks like this: Overview Stats page views song plays downloads yesterday: 71 28 3 today: 62 4 0 more Charts 10 songs are in the charts today. more Swaying # 14 in Jazz out of 44,413 songs # 1 in Jazz General out of 12,175 songs In My Mind # 18 in Acoustic out of 151,946 songs # 4 in Acoustic General out of 35,628 songs Lazy Blues # 26 in Blues out of 55,712 songs # 5 in Electric Blues out of 2,755 songs The Journey # 149 in World out of 76,810 songs # 53 in New Age out of 12,885 songs Mike-K-Featuring-Mista-Perez-U-Are-A-Woman # 351 in Urban out of 108,003 songs # 67 in Smooth R&B out of 14,636 songs show all

Thanks,
Bob I belong to SoundClick and SoundCloud. I prefer SoundCloud over SoundClick. SoundClick use to be my site of choice to post songs but I rarely visit SoundClick now. I like how the site lets listeners rate songs and maintains play charts so it is easy to find new songs that you will enjoy listening to. What I didn't appreciate was SoundClick "lost" all the songs I posted from about 2001 to 2012.

[quote=Bob Buford]I belong to SoundClick and SoundCloud. I prefer SoundCloud over SoundClick. I also tend to like the soundcloud interface and it's site navigation a bit more. I only have (4) BIAB songs there which was after PGMusic started the radio station thing. I have not gone through uploading of my (12) other songs there quite yet. Back to it....
