The Internet opens up a huge variety of opportunities for people. If earlier creating your own radio station was very time-consuming and far from possible for everyone, now you will spend no more than one day on creating an Internet radio. You don't need any special skills or expensive equipment.
Instructions
Step 1
The simplest and most famous program for playing Winamp music files must be installed on your computer. It is also necessary to download the additional shoutcast server and shoutcast pug-in files for it.
Step 2
The first file will be used as your radio's server. You can make your site or the site of the program developers as a base.
Step 3
The second file will combine the server and Winamp installed on your computer. Don't waste time trying to combine files and server with other players. You will spend a huge amount of time, but you will not get any effect other than disappointment and irritation.
Step 4
Setting up a server is straightforward. The site where you download it has detailed instructions on how to do this. Strictly adhere to these recommendations.
Step 5
If the goal of your internet radio is to generate profit, then make sure that as many people as possible are interested in your radio hotspot. To do this, you first need to determine the target audience. Based on her needs, build a playlist of original tracks. If you are creating your own radio, it should be different from the options already offered. Otherwise, it will simply go unnoticed.
Step 6
Track what kind of music your direct competitors are offering to listeners, as well as what shows they are airing. Make your playlist and your programs more interesting and attractive to your target audience. To do this, connect your own imagination.
Step 7
You can not only put on good tracks, but also introduce a variety of programs and shows that may be of interest to listeners. The more original and thoughtful you organize all this, the more listeners you will attract and the higher the likelihood of your getting a good profit.
