How to Upload & Distribute Your Music Like a Pro

Published on July 11, 2025 · by Team SingWithMe

Distributing your music professionally means more than just uploading a file. It’s about making sure your music reaches every major platform, is properly tagged, and is discoverable by your growing audience.

Why Distribution Matters

Without proper distribution, even your best track can sit unheard. Platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, and Amazon offer global reach — but you need the right strategy to take advantage of them.

Step-by-Step Upload Guide

  • Step 1: Finalize your audio and artwork (WAV or MP3 formats, 3000x3000px cover art recommended).
  • Step 2: Create an account with a distributor or use the SingWithMe Artist Portal.
  • Step 3: Add metadata: track title, genre, artist name, contributors, and ISRC codes (if available).
  • Step 4: Choose platforms and regions — opt for worldwide distribution unless otherwise planned.
  • Step 5: Set a release date and submit. Most platforms take 3–7 days to process.

Tips for a Successful Launch

  • Schedule your release at least 2 weeks in advance.
  • Promote your music with pre-saves and teaser content on social media.
  • Use tools like Spotify for Artists to pitch to editorial playlists.

Uploading your music doesn't have to be stressful. With the right tools and preparation, you can distribute your tracks professionally — and start gaining the recognition you deserve.
