A profile page isn't a website
SoundCloud is a good place to upload and a good place to be discovered. It's a poor place to send someone who already wants to hear your work.
Your profile page is SoundCloud's design, with SoundCloud's recommendations next to your tracks. You can't group a release with its artwork and liner notes, and you can't give a promoter a page that shows only your best mix. When someone searches your name, they find the profile and maybe a few stray tracks.
A site of your own fixes that. Each upload gets its own page with a title, description and player. You choose the design. It becomes the link in your bio, your press kit and your emails.
Option 1: sync from your SoundCloud RSS feed
If you post a podcast or upload regularly, this is the setup to use.
- In SoundCloud, open Settings → Content and copy your RSS feed address. It starts with
feeds.soundcloud.com. - Check the tracks you want on your site are included in the feed. Each track has its own setting for this.
- In ShowHub, choose RSS in the setup wizard and paste the feed address.
ShowHub reads the feed like any podcast feed. Titles, descriptions, artwork and dates come across, and new uploads are added after each sync. If you're on Pro, spoken episodes get a transcript written onto their page.
Option 2: add tracks one link at a time
For artists and DJs who want a curated set rather than everything:
- Open the track or mix on SoundCloud and copy its address from the browser.
- In ShowHub, choose SoundCloud and paste the link. Repeat for each track.
- Open Dashboard → Episodes. Tracks added by link come in with a placeholder title and no description, so give each one a proper title and write a description.
Track links don't update on their own. When you release something new, paste its link too.
Making music pages worth visiting
Search engines read text, not audio, and a page with a player and a one-line title has very little to read. Put the things fans look for in the description: the release date, who produced and mixed it, the label, a tracklist for mixes, and where to buy or stream it elsewhere. A few honest sentences about how the track came about will do more than a block of hashtags.
If you also post on YouTube, Instagram or X, add those as sources. Your site then shows everything you make in one place.
