Why it is better not to use «shady» promotion schemes

Many musicians believe that inviting subscribers of a particular community is an effective means to promote concerts and use unauthorized services for mass mailing of invitations. Please, mind that spam in VK is prohibited. When you start using such services, the account from which you send the newsletter will most likely be banned first. Suppose you decide to create bots and continue inviting, sooner or later. In that case, they will block your community, and you will have to create it again. 

It would be best not to accept offers from unknown users to issue your musician card for the money. You can do all of this free of charge with the Support service. Read more in the article. 

Do not communicate with those who offer paid access to the showcase, pretending to be a mythical acquaintance with the VK music editorial office. It won't work. The music editors of VK are anonymous, and you cannot contact and offer a music track to them directly.

Avoid those who offer to get into the chart for money or draw beautiful reports that, thanks to their unique advertising techniques, tracks of promoted artists got into the chart.

Without a doubt, a high-quality promotional campaign for the release and targeted advertising can contribute to getting tracks into the chart. However, if you are offered to enter into the chart for the fee of several thousand rubles for a few hours, you are being cheated. 

You can't get into the VK chart for money. It is calculated automatically based on listening to music in any part of the site, whether it is your album, showcase, recommendations, community wall or user audio recordings. In addition, the chart is updated once a day.
