Newsletter - October 2002
With the website changes almost done (I think?) and all the little annoying things fixed and/or changed, we can all sit back and relax for a little bit….well, until my homework starts piling up, the deadline for the book comes near, or the deadline for my latest album. Oh well, back to work! Actually, I started playing around with the website and before I knew it, I was changing it around again! This is what happens when you give someone full control of a website!
For the past two months, I’ve seen an increase of listeners on my internet pages and thanks to a new promotion from MP3.com called “Sexy Songs Messenger”, we’ve had over 500 hits in just 14 days. Since the Roni’s Books and Music website is linked to MP3.com, we’ve also seen an increase in traffic which is great promotion for the site. I’ve updated all the photos for most sites to keep some consistency between all the MP3 sites also.
We also have a new guest book so write your comments up on the website, book, music, or whatever you would like (of course that is printable!) and send it in.
A new Online Store has been implemented and purchasing books and music is now worldwide. Speaking of an online store, we also have Roni's Books and Music merchandise now available in cups, t-shirts, and bags. Visit our merchandise store today!
Until then,
Roni ~

We entered an auction on MP3.com to be promoted as the “sexy song of the week”. The MP3.com promotion for “sexy music” brought over 500 downloads and plays in less than 14 days! With the new album release just coming up over the horizon, we will again utilize this promo to get the word out!
