AdaptiveBlue Releases SmartLinks
Early this morning, AdaptiveBlue released its latest product offering for blogs and web sites called SmartLinks. Essentially, SmartLinks automatically provides your readers with the ability to see detailed information about movies, books, music, restaurants, stocks and more every time you create a link to your favorite band, film, company, etc. on your blog or web site. For example, click on the small blue square (AdaptiveBlue's logo) to the right of Chuck Leavell to see detailed information about this legendary musician. As you can see, useful and relevant information about Chuck Leavell is aggregated from a variety of places. You can also see below how I used SmartLinks in a previous post, as I was a beta tester for their product:
SmartLinks will help indie musicians market themselves, as music enthusiasts reading content online will be able to quickly see detailed information about you (e.g. links to your videos, blog or discography) when they see your SmartLink on another site. It's another angle at helping you reach new listeners through music discovery, so spread the word!
SmartLinks works on all major blogging platforms (e.g. WordPress, TypePad, Blogger, etc.), and you can easily turn it on for your web site with this simple line of JavaScript:
