How to Promote Your Music with Ads

Music ads are a key part of music marketing for many artists. Whether you want to promote your music on Spotify or boost your TikTok profile, its important to select the right ad type for your goals. From increasing your streams, growing your following or trying to get more people to your website, the Ad Launcher can help you. Let's take a look.

Video Ads

Video ads are ideal for promoting music videos, visualisers, or short-form content across on platforms like YouTube. This ad type helps increase video views, build awareness around a release, and capture attention with engaging visuals that support your music promotion strategy.

Music Ads

Music ads are designed to drive listeners directly to your music on streaming platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, and Deezer. Use this ad type to increase streams, reach new listeners, and encourage saves and follows by promoting your tracks to fans who are more likely to engage with your music.

Music ads allow artists to choose between different music ad types designed for off platform promotion or direct streaming engagement. Let's take a look.

Off-platform music ads

These campaigns use external links to your music, such as a track URL, pre-save page, or fan link. Ads can be shared across social platforms to drive listeners to your release, profile, or upcoming launch, helping build momentum beyond a single platform.

Run ads for your music

Spotify on-platform ads

These campaigns run directly within Spotify using tools like Showcase, Marquee, and Spotify Audio Ads. Your music is promoted inside the Spotify app, reaching listeners while they’re already streaming and more likely to engage. For best results, combine music ads with tools like Spotify playlist pitching to support both paid and organic discovery.

Social Media Ads

Social media ads help promote your music on Instagram and TikTok by pushing your artist profile and posts in front of more people. This ad type is ideal for building your following, increasing engagement, and turning listeners into long-term fans.

Custom Page Ads

Custom page ads allow you to send traffic to a specific webpage, such as your website, mailing list, merch store, or link-in-bio page. Use this option to drive traffic, promote campaigns, or support wider marketing goals beyond streaming.


How Much Does it Cost to Launch Music Ads?

The cost of launching music ads can vary depending on the platform and your campaign goals. Most music ad platforms require a minimum spend to ensure ads have enough budget to reach deliver meaningful results.

With the Ditto Ad Launcher, campaigns start at a minimum of $100, with a maximum budget of $2,000 per campaign. This range allows artists to test music promotion campaigns at a manageable level, while also scaling budgets for larger releases or wider audience reach.

Setting a clear budget helps ensure your music ads are shown consistently, giving you the best chance to increase streams, grow your audience, and promote your music effectively.
