Marketing your music- websites

Now days there are lots of websites that can be used for musicians marketing their music. 
Below is a list of websites that can be used to show off your music: 
 www.ujam.com- You can use this to create your own music online, even if you’re not a skilled musician, which makes making music easy. 
www.mixlr.com- a website that allows people to do live mixes on the air and for people to listen to them. You can also connect with other DJs and artists 
http://burn-studios.audiotool.com- Online music creation. 
www.soundcloud.com- This allows you to upload your own music, mixes and comment on other peoples work. You can follow people and people can follow you on here. You can search by artist, track or genre with 1000s of genre specific groups and downloadable music.  
www.dropbox.com- Allows people to share files, which could include music files. 
www.soundation.com - Allows you to create music online, and share with others and listen to other peoples work. 
www.youtube.com- Probably the site that can get you the most views/hits but it takes time for people to watch what you’ve put up unless you’re already an established artists. The potential for this website to get you views is big, but as it’s not a totally music orientated website, it may time more time than if you posted your music elsewhere. 
www.vimeo.com- Basically just youtube but smaller, so the same applies for that. 
http://www.ustream.tv/- Another video sharing website. 
http://www.mixcloud.com/- Allows you to posy mixes you’ve done and listen to other people’s mixes. 
Social networking is  big part of music sharing these days, here is a list of websites people use: 
www.facebook.com- the biggest social networking sight, which allows people to post music on their ‘wall’ and to create fan pages for the artists.
