Beginnings...

When Stoo started MusoFinder in his bedroom back in 2003 I don't think he realised just how big it might get! (and how much work he would have to put in it). Now, almost 5 years later MusoFinder has almost 40,000 musicians and Stoo and I constantly complain that's not enough!!

Truth is we don't know what is going to happen next to this site. We never have. That's why we wanted to start this blog. To share our plans for the site and hopefully get your feedback on our thoughts and ideas. In return we thought we would get some interesting features together on how to form bands and influence people in the music industry - maybe even by some guest writers (oh that reminds me - if any of you are budding writers & fancy contributing, email me - nickatmusofinderdotcom).

Also we want to give you the limelight, so feel free to comment lots on the posts we plan to write. Why don't we start now with 'What has your overall experience been of MusoFinder over the past 5 years? (the good and the bad)'...

Do you make much money as the owner of musofinder?

Does the site alone pay your way in life?

Hey Simmeh,

The short answer to that one is a DEFINITE no :( Stoo and I make zero money from the site and both have 'day jobs'.

MusoFinder does generate revenue, but we put it all back into the website.

There are costs for hosting and supporting the site and anything left over we spend on marketing it to try and build the amount of people using it.
