How to Describe and Tag Your Music on Pond5 - (A Beginner's Guide)

[@KrannakenTV]

Thank you so much for this fantastic video. I have some music that is already on Pond5, but doing these things has been a daunting prospect for me. I really appreciate your help.

My pleasure. Thanks for watching!

Thanks, Daniel for your very helpful videos! I’ve got one question. How to register alternate edits with P.R.O? (15-sec edit etc.) Should I treat them on BMI as alternate titles of the same track, register each of them as another track or just register only full version?

[@raulbonillavendrell]

Hi Daniel, thanks for the always useful info you provide. Do you name your tracks differently in different platforms (a particular name for AudioJungle and another one for Pond5, for example)? Cheers! Congrats!

[@StockMusicLicensing]

No, I name them the same.

[@GreatestSportsHighLights]

Great video! Thank you!

Hello Daniel, can you please tell me if if I am from Romania (Europe), besides the pond5 / audiojungle tax (65%) from the sale, is there any particular tax beside of 65% (tax for the imposit from the US Gouverment?) or does the rest go into the paypal account from the sale of a song? Thank you very much for the answer and for everything you do! Greetings and Lots of inspiration!

[@StockMusicLicensing]

No, that is it. If that is the tax treaty between Romania and the USA. That should be it when it comes to tax withholdings.

Hi,I need help.I have edited the music but it still tells me like i need to edit the music

[@weslaycock466]

Great video. Question, does capitalization make a difference? I am submitting a horror track and I'm not sure if putting 'horror' and as well 'Horror' would make a difference for people searching for the tag.

[@StockMusicLicensing]

Usually tags are lowercase.

@@StockMusicLicensing something like this ok? A dark and mysterious music track with sinister synths and hybrid percussion. A driving bass and energetic drumbeat provides a mood of danger and suspense.

[@StockMusicLicensing]

Perfect!!

Yes!Thank you so much Daniel!

After 35% cut sales have become low 😞😞

[@StockMusicLicensing]

Yes, I know. We have all been affected.

@@StockMusicLicensing audiojungle have become a dead market due to envato elements 😕 I saw your profile with 603 items you get only 6-7 sales this month and another only 10 days there for this month 😕

I am new in pond 5 and I uploaded 3 of my tracks. It showed my three tracks as In review for about two weeks . Now it says " On line" does this mean my tracks have been approved or is this simply another step that they have to go through before they get approved or rejected. I am a bit confused because I have not received any emails from them ever since I opened my account with pond 5 when I submitted my music. Can somebody please let me know whats going on with my music in pond 5. They don´t seem to be very communicative with their customers.

Another great video mate! After lockdown, I owe you a beer and a Gyros!

[@silverworks7]

Thank you Daniel... Very helpful.

[@marcusmanzoni]

Hello, friend. Nice videos you make! Do I need to mix a watermark Pond5 soundclip to the track? If yes, where do I find it? Thanks.

[@StockMusicLicensing]

No you don't. Simply upload your music and Pond5 5 will add the watermark.

[@marcusmanzoni]

@@StockMusicLicensing thank you so much! Cheers from Brazil. I follow your channel since 2019, great work.

[@rohana403]

Very helpful video! While uploading different different versions of the same track on pond5, do i upload separate files one by one OR all versions separated with gap in one long audio file ?

[@StockMusicLicensing]

Separate.

[@richardbagley5096]

Another great video Daniel ... quick question, I asked Pond5 how I should add the audio watermark ('Pond5') and they told me that they add this. However, I noticed that you have the audio watermark in this track before you have uploaded to them .... could you clarify? Thanks

[@StockMusicLicensing]

They watermark the track. You don't need to do anything. You can play your preview the same way I did in the video as you are describing and tagging your music. The watermark is added to your track as soon as you upload it. Before you describe it and tag.

[@richardbagley5096]

@@StockMusicLicensing Thanks Daniel - that is now clear.
