A few things note, sending people to your song achieves the usually 'Saves' on the song and plays. Saves make a difference for the popularity score and it allows for potential algorithmic push. The method you have detailed is good for plays, but not really saves and to push for algorithmic push for the individual song. Best best is to have two adds, one to your own artist playlist, and one on to the song.

[@piotrekpacak]

Hi, Greetings from Poland :). Just to be more specific, remember that this is an ads campaign optimized for link clicks and not for conversions. If someone clicks this link it doesn't mean he opens your playlist, so conversion optimized ads will be more cost-effective and algorithm will try to find people that will go to your playlist. So conversion ads should be cheaper, waaay cheaper than 0.5 of a $ :))

[@randalmontgomery4595]

You sound very knowledgeable. Please explain how to tell hypeddit or FB ads that you want conversions and not link clicks. I am still not clear on terms such as impressions, engagments, vists, clicks etc.

[@AThousandHills]

So helpful - thank you! 😊

[@HiFiJi]

Just stumbled upon your channel. I produce both Lofi Soul, and ambient electronic/future garage instrumental music and started releasing my music to music streaming platform 3 months ago. I was curious to give hypeddit an experimental run also for a month to see, and your video has encouraged me to try this out. Thanks for the video!

[@shahcyrus]

Was hyped it worth it

[@ambientnightsph]

How are your results?

[@jeanpierre1108]

This is gold!!! Thank you very much!!!

[@OtherRecordLabels]

Glad it helped!

[@luiszapiola355]

Great ! I hope you can make more ad experiment videos ! Really useful info 👍

[@OtherRecordLabels]

Thanks, will do!

[@georgeboomsmamusic]

Brilliant video, thank very much! 👍👍

[@OtherRecordLabels]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@spirationmusic]

So cool that you made this video. We have not used Hypeddit for their ads but we do use their landing pages for our Facebook Ads. If you ever want to do an episode about ads I’d love to be a part of it 😁 we currently spend over $1,000 per month and are generating hundreds of thousands of streams per month in return using this exact type of playlist promotion!

[@chriskemp466]

How much do you make per month doing that ?

[@kadiusvain1102]

Damn thank you for this Gem 💎

[@TheAmory]

Hello and hope you are fine I just wanted to ask do you know a way to create a pre-save link for my record I mean my album in my own website like The Orchard and STMPD records

[@beunmin6]

Wow! Didn't know that! I'd like to learn more on your channel.

[@FonzTramontano]

Thanks for this great video

[@OtherRecordLabels]

My pleasure!

[@rodsmediaroom835]

Awesome video! I discovered your channel (and podcast) somewhat recently... and love it! Especially since you're in Canada as I am! Slightly off-topic question. What digital distro service(s) are you currently using? I know you did a video on te topic a few years back, but I'm curious if you have any new thoughts on the matter for 2023?

[@OtherRecordLabels]

Currently not recommending anyone officially. Having said that. I’ve been with cdbaby with zero problems for 15 years. I also have friends who rave about symphonic.

[@rodsmediaroom835]

@OtherRecordLabels Awesome... thanks for the reply! I released some stuff with CD Baby way back in the late '90s / early 2000s... but I've been out of the game for ages (pushing 2 decades now). Your videos / podcast have inspired me to get back into it. Thanks!

[@anboojz]

Can we just agree that we need to bring this vibe back. 10 years later and this song still hits different. Truly a masterpiece.

[@clarkterrell930]

Is this worth getting if you only have 1 single and not an entire playlist of my own songs? I'm planning on releasing new songs every 6 weeks. Should I wait to get this?

[@Outlyresmusic]

I'm a total newbie to Spotify ads, so this is extremely helpful. Thanks!

[@OtherRecordLabels]

Great to hear!

[@kadiusvain1102]

How can I tell check the history on Facebook ads the way you did it?

[@Eskatology2012]

This might be a random question but you can only create a playlist on spotify through your personal page not spotify for artists right? Judt make sure the name connects etc?

[@DetailersunitedRadio]

right

[@randalmontgomery4595]

I had same Q, spent an hour online trying to find out how to create playlist on my artist page. Thx for the Answer

Thx for that great advice! Are you using the free version of hypeddit or the payed version?

[@OtherRecordLabels]

I had a full version for this demo.

[@vindimusicofficial]

Regardless will be attempting a campaign

[@PRAFITJOSIAH]

Question. So you stopped after 288 clicks correct? Then you seen a 5k increase in monthly listeners, that doesn't make sense, did you keep the ad going for longer or maybe I missed a piece of the video?

[@OtherRecordLabels]

It’s a great question. I had to rewatch. The Spotify for artists numbers are undeniable. Maybe I misread the Facebook ads click total. But that jump in monthly listeners was accurate, as you can see. I didn’t do anything different during this time. Is it possible that impressions lead to listens without a click on the ad? Unlikely but possible. Is it possible that Spotify noticed an increase in traffic to my music and in turn increased my algorithmic placements? That’s likely. I really have no explanation for the big jump in monthly listeners compared to the click through rate. I honestly don’t know how Spotify determines that number.

[@PRAFITJOSIAH]

@@OtherRecordLabels Interesting, yeah that number is the amount of NEW listeners in the previous 28 days. Definitely appears to have come from something outside of FB, or maybe somebody you reached, shared it with there audience? Either way Congrats. Will you continue using that in the future or have you stopped using it?

[@simplexiarecords]

Really thank you man, appreciatted! (L)

[@OtherRecordLabels]

Glad it helped!

[@vindimusicofficial]

A good campaign helps but also ppl have to like the music itself

[@burningjacobsladder]

if you have a hypeditt premium account and run a campaign but then downgrade to their free plan then does you campaign stop?

[@SonnyKellerman]

Yes, the campaign will be archived and you can't run them again, that sucks.

[@scunny]

So youre saying you got approx 250 clicks and from that got 5k additional monthly listeners!?

[@PRAFITJOSIAH]

I had the same question, that doesn't smell right...

[@scunny]

@PRAFITJOSIAH it's the 3rd party playlists which are most likely suss. They're filled with bots 9 times out of 10

[@OtherRecordLabels]

Just answered in another comment. Definitely strange, but it’s accurate from Spotify for Artists, comparing those two months.

[@OtherRecordLabels]

Is it also possible that some of the new fans added some songs to their playlists and were listened to as well? My biggest guess is the Spotify discover algorithm picked up that month, maybe because of the increased traffic from the ads, or maybe just a coincidence. I have no idea.

[@scunny]

@OtherRecordLabels yeah of course people can add your song to their personal playlist, but that's from 250 click throughs. It's not going to create 5k monthly listeners. Regarding Discover Weekly, you can specifically see how many streams you've had from that playlist for your specific song, the last 7 or 28 days. You can also now create your own specified date to check. It would perhaps make sense to review your algorithmic streams for that specific time you ran the campaign and share that within your video etc?

[@crocodom]

Running in one week now. Still not even play or click or impression. Cannot understanding why I just spend $117 for no reason

[@vxd]

The results are very poor, Im getting around 10 cents per conversion, and if I get more Im dissappointed!

[@ambientnightsph]

Can you share some tips? And do you also promote a playlist or a song only?

[@user-tg3nd6me9l]

That not impressive, manually doing the ad manager gets way better results... I've gotten like .30 click average.

[@xmun2450]

the results are very poor with these ads , its better to learn how to do it yourself and run your own ads its much easier nowadays also since the IOS 14 thing is resolved, also if you running your own ads for only 1 day and turning them off then obviously they're not working... also your probably just running traffic campaigns and not conversions like this is doing

[@simonlegrec]

U got money fot this...? I see paid promotion
