Does your band have a name people constantly misspell? Does your name have an alias such as it's initals or something that people call your band non-stop? If so, it is very important to own the SEO on these names.

You may have no idea what I am talking about but it is easy to explain. People constantly think the name of this site is either museformation or musinformation. If you go to Museformation.com or Musinformation.com they all redirect to Musformation.com so that you find our site. I bought these names after realizing people were constantly making those errors. It cost me $14 and 15 minutes of my very web retarded brain to set this up. It ends up giving us tons of traffic and if someone goes to Google and types in Museformation or Musinformation they now find our site since I made this post and one other.

Years ago the band Brand New used to make shirts that said Brand Nizzle as influenced by Snoop Dog's lingo. These shirts were so popular I can remember a kid in a band asking, "Who is Brand Nizzle?" If he had went to Google he would only come up with some links for a shirt and a Urban Dictionary name (another good way to own your aliases is to add them as a definition here). This would have led to him not finding a band he ended up loving.

Every time someone type in your name wrong and doesn't find your band you may miss out on a new fan. It is cheap and easy to have this not happen make sure you have your bases covered.
