We're having a massive special in February but you'll need to act quickly
We're having a little celebration here. Our new hosting platform for bands and musicians, Musician Site Builder, is ready to go.
It's no secret that budgets are tight in the music business these days. So I needed a way to make the whole process faster and simpler while still turning out a professional grade site. Then I could be affordable for musicians and still make a dollar for myself. I also needed to make ongoing maintenance simpler and less time-consuming.
The end result is Musician Site Builder, a "technology stack" of hosting and software.
It took a few months longer than anticipated but it was worth the effort. Over the past couple of months, I've built a large number of test websites and this week I launched the first one built for a real customer! It works every bit as well as I'd hoped.
It started out as an internal project for myself but we will soon be opening it up as a D.I.Y. service. Until we do though, we are still available to build your site for you on the new platform.
Okay, so what is this new platform?
It starts with the hosting. We host all of our sites on servers that are purpose-built for high traffic WordPress sites. The servers are load balanced so you never have to worry about the site going down when your traffic goes up from a sudden hit of publicity. All sites are backed up and scanned for malware daily. All software is kept up to date for you so you never have to worry about it.
On top of the hosting platform is our content management system. We have built it to suit the exact needs of bands and musicians. You can easily add gigs, band members, recordings, images, videos and embed third-party services like Bandcamp & iTunes.
We have included a fantastic drag & drop page builder to allow you to achieve any look you are after. You're not locked into a design either. It can be changed at any time.
Last but certainly not least, we look after all the technical aspects of your site. Forget about all the technical stuff like servers and software and just concentrate on the important bit, your music!
To celebrate the opening of our new hosting platform we're offering a very special price. Use the coupon code "feb-19" at the checkout and you will get:
- 50% off all hosting plans for the life of your account
- Don't pay the Site Build charge until after we build the site
This special price is only available to the first four three people to create an account and pay for their hosting so don't delay.
Once you've created your account you will be logged straight into the dashboard of your new site. Have a look around if you like but there's no need to do anything at this point. I will get in touch with you to start gathering your content. Once that is done I'll build the complete site out for you.
Again, this offer is only available to the first four three people to use the coupon code "feb-19". Pick a plan and take advantage of this huge saving now!

Automated Gig Guide
Your site has an easy to use gig guide that automatically shows your latest gigs and moves them into your "past gigs" section once they have passed. Venue information can be stored to make adding gigs very quick. Ticket pricing and other details can be added simply.
Looks great on any sized device
All of our sites are completely responsive so they will adapt and look great on any device from phone through to desktop. All of our image and video galleries are the same and will resize your content to fit any device perfectly.
Easily sell your music and merchandise
It's easy to integrate with services like iTunes, Bandcamp, CD Baby and many others. You can embed audio players and widgets easily from all the major players to enable you to sell your music, merchandise and show tickets.
Use your own domain name
We will set you up with a temporary domain to get the site built and you can register and add your own domain name to it when it's done.
Daily backups
Your complete site will be backed up daily so it can easily be restored in the unlikely event of a problem.
Daily malware scans
Your site will be scanned daily for all types of malware attack and if a problem is ever found, it will be fixed.
Advanced spam filtering
All comments left on your site will be scanned for spam & offending comments removed.
We keep all the software up to date
One of the biggest causes of problems with websites is when the software that runs it becomes old or out of date. We make sure these problems never arise by updating all the software for you.
You'll never have to worry about technical stuff
Forget about all the technical stuff like servers and software and just concentrate on the important bit, your music!
What our customers say about Premium Band Sites:
The Silverline
Rudy Miranda (Australian Session Drummer)
I found it very easy to convey my thoughts & ideas to Mark when creating my website.
He’s patient and a great communicator and goes out of his way to achieve a high quality and professional product for his customers.
I’m very pleased with the results and any technical issues have been quickly addressed and fixed.
If you’re looking to create a Professional Band or Musician Website, I would highly recommend you contact Mark Gibson @ Premium Band Sites today.”
Brad Marks
“When I decided I needed a new website I was pointed in the direction of Mark Gibson.
From the start, Mark was very proactive in making sure he knew exactly what I wanted from my website and I couldn’t have asked for a better end result. Mark is very friendly and happy to answer any questions and provide any advice he can. I highly recommend anyone looking to start a website to give him a call, you won’t be disappointed.”
Herm Kovac, Drummer TMG
“When TMG (Ted Mulry Gang) decided to hit the road again the first thing we had to do was get a website up and running and our socials
Mark Gibson from Premium Band Sites came highly recommended and in no time had our website created and up and running and we were happy from day one, didn’t change a thing.
When it came to a Facebook Campaign to push our gigs Mark was there to advise us and to get in place.
I highly recommend Mark to any band or solo artist. He knows his stuff but more
George Sich
“Mark,
Thank-you for my website, I could not be more pleased with the finished product. It looks fantastic on either computer, or mobile phone, and I love the functionality, especially the seamless interaction with the e-commerce site. Very well done, sir!”
Merilyn Steele
“I recently had a new website created by Mark Gibson and I’m so happy with it! I can manage my own updates, gigs, posts and news and it is so easy. Mark was so great to work with as well and charged a very reasonable fee too. Highly recommend him if you want a new site.”
