Overview
To receive submissions on your own playlists inside PlaylistHub, they must be active and consistently promoted. This ensures artists are sending their music to playlists that are growing, engaging listeners, and generating real results.
Our goal is to keep the ecosystem fair and valuable for both curators and artists. Playlists that show continuous activity and audience growth are more likely to receive steady submissions and visibility.
📊 Keeping your playlist active
Running campaigns is not required to have your playlist available for submissions.
However, curators who choose to run ongoing promotion typically see stronger growth and more consistent submissions.
If you decide to promote your playlist, you can:
Run campaigns on Facebook and Instagram
Use Continuous Mode to keep traffic stable
Maintain steady listener activity
This helps ensure:
Artists submit to playlists that are truly active
Your playlist continues to grow in reach and engagement
The platform remains high-quality and trusted 🙂
If promotion pauses, your playlist can still remain on the platform, but lower activity may naturally reduce submission volume.
💸 Campaigns can be fully covered by submissions
Many curators choose to run continuous campaigns because the cost is often covered by submission revenue.
In practice:
Submissions generate earnings
Those earnings can fund ongoing promotion
This creates a self-sustaining growth loop
For many users, this means the system becomes basically free to run, while still helping grow the playlist and increase visibility.
Running campaigns is optional — but when done consistently, it can help maintain momentum and attract more artists.
