Se7en South Expands its Target Audience with Technology

Se7en South, NEPA's most popular studio band employs cutting edge technology to increase their music exposure. In a recent radio interview Robert Sterling, Se7en South Marketing Director talked about the challenges facing marketing Indie bands. If you do a Google search for Indie music, you will find 4,870,000 organic results competing for the specific term "Indie music".

Organic results simply means that those websites appearing in the main body of the Google results pages did not pay to be placed on that page where as the listings appearing either on the right side of the page or highlighted at the top of the body of the page have paid Google a fee for the priviledge of appearing on that page.

Many, if not all of the emerging Indie bands don't have the disposable income to fund an extensive paid Google adwords campaign or the time and knowledge to build an effective SEO based marketing plan to get them to the top of the Google pages however hope is not lost and there are some companies offering solutions for the 'little guy' just starting out.

Veretekk is just such a company, founded Thomas Prendergast and Mike Darling, entrepreneurs who saw a need and heard a calling to provide honest, reliable low cost solutions made available to the 'average person' to help them become educated about Internet marketing and provide them with innovative tools to help them achieve the results needed to build successful home businesses.

NEW Album features 60 second PSA ON LINE PREDATOR AWARENESS

SE7EN SOUTH, a northeast Pennsylvania studio band has released their second album titled : Alblumo Duo "Harmless Little Radio Waves". The 21 track cd features a wide range of music for all ages. From local tounge in cheek (a band signature) to blues, swing, as well as ballads, this CD flows like the spin of a radio dial and is full of variety. Included in this format is a PSA, which the band takes very seriously. The 60 second PSA draws attention to the importance of parental guidance for kids on the internet. "It was the tragic Megan Meier’s story that shook all of us to the core as to what the cyber world is capable of, and awareness was the only thing we had in our arsenal. Megan Meier tragically took her life after being targeted by cyber slander and a neighbor in a vicious hoax." McGroarty added. " We wrote and produced it then built the radio CD around it. We are hopeful every radio station will find a hole in their schedule to run it, and often," SE7EN SOUTH band member Kevin McGroarty stated. "Our mission was to create a variety album that any traditional or web radio station might find something to fit their catagory, but the PSA is something we hope every single one will utilize.
"We wanted to raise awareness to every demographic, the PSA "I’m Falling" features band member George Stuscavage’s daughter singing lyrics, and delivers the message in a thought provoking manner." McGroarty added.
The band SE7EN SOUTH originates from the Wilkes-Barre Area, and includes members James Frushon, Savannah, Georgia, George Stuscavage and Kevin McGroarty both from the Wyoming Valley located in the northeast of Pennsylvania.
