best practices will maximize the impact for your local audience.
- Make sure you have the “Song of the Day” player embedded on your
website. If it’s not currently embedded and you would like it to be, reach
out to Mark for the embed code (mark@vuhaus.com).
- If your station has a video featured on the “Song of the Day” player,
the day of the feature is a great day to push listeners to your station
