When promoting your music with PlaylistHub, there are two primary growth methods available: Campaigns and Playlist Submissions. While both can support your strategy, they operate differently and serve distinct purposes.
Campaigns – Direct Promotion via Ads
Campaigns are the most direct and reliable way to promote your music. They run as paid advertising on platforms like Instagram and Facebook, fully managed and optimized by our AI system.
Ads are automatically created and continuously optimized
Promotion is focused on a single track at a time
Minimum of 400 credits per campaign
Designed for fast exposure, launches, and testing audience response
Campaigns allow you to reach real listeners directly, with minimal risk of interference or external factors. This typically results in more consistent and scalable performance compared to playlist-based strategies.
Playlist Submissions – Placement in Third-Party Playlists
With your plan’s credits, you can submit tracks to a network of independent, third-party playlists.
Select the track you want to promote
Choose playlists that match your genre and style
Playlists accept or reject submissions based on AI-driven analysis of fit and quality
If accepted, your track is added for listener discovery
Placements last 5 days before rotation to keep playlists active
These playlists are externally managed, meaning outcomes can vary depending on curator behavior and other factors outside of direct control.
Summary
Campaigns: Direct, scalable promotion through ads (recommended)
Submissions: Third-party playlist exposure with AI-based acceptance
Automatic placements: Additional monthly exposure included in your plan
For best results, Campaigns should be the core of your strategy, with Playlist Submissions used as a complementary channel.
