Please give your thought and help my idea..

[AyuGAME]

hi everyone..
i have an idea that i get from "dragon voice" comic..
i have an idea to boost up ayu popularity again..its a bit cheating but i think it will work..
my idea is promote her new album "my story" in every single forum that we know..
we post the tread about her and about her new album. i think it will work..
in every jpop forum and all forum we all know, we post a news about her and her new album cover "my story"..
its a bit cheating but i think it will works..
so..what your opinion about my idea?

[Ayurendy]

maybe it sounds good...have you try it?

[Coelacanth]

Especially with that cover lol, since people would judge that first by instinct.

I doubt it'll work on MOST jpop forums cus i'm pretty sure everybody knows of her. All of my friends who listen to jpop knows of her.

But this might be a good idea. Let us fans make her popularity rise once again. I'll try to do this and persuade people to like the album and then they'll consider buying it. But one thing for sure, don't show them sites that they can download the album, because i'm sure once they downloaded the album, they will not have the mind to think of buying the album. Just send them a few appealing ones, like HONEY, My Name's WOMEN etc.

I'll participate in this.

There are 30 sec album streams on Avex TW's 'MY STORY' page for anyone who can be bothered to advertise this without mp3s.

Yes. It's an effective way of spreading the word but is usually more suited to small nonestablished artists & films. You are free to go ahead with your plan yourself but I wouldn't want people to get the impression it was organised / sponsored / condoned by AHS in any way.

Most of us would find it pretty annoying if fans of [insert artist you hate] were to add loads of threads here and started turning exisiting conversations offtopic towards their artist.

Doesn't a nice avatar and signature banner/text do a good enough job without being overbearing?

[CaliAyuLuva]

I agree with CREA. I think avatars say a lot without being annoying.
