I’m sure many of you have noticed, we now have music profiles on HisReach. We are still doing some work to get them perfect, so be patient while we work out all of the kinks. Just a few things to note about music profiles:

1. You must own the rights to the music in order to post songs to HisReach. If you don’t and we find out, your music profile and member profile will be permanently deleted. In short, No…you can’t post your favorite songs to a music profile…even if you bought the CDs.
2. If you don’t see your favorite band on HisReach, we need your help. We are working to get the coolest artists on HisReach, but it is an involved process. How can you help? Send an email to the band, leave messages on their MySpace, post on their websites. Tell them that you are on HisReach and you want them to be too. Fans are the top influencers on how bands reach their fans.
3. If you see something that isn’t working how you might have expected or if something justplain doesn’t work. Please let us know in the Suggestion Box on your home page.

Thanks for all the suggestions and support. We hope you enjoy!

So some of you may have noticed tat over the last few days, we started showing Amazon.com ads on HisReach. Amazon is obviously a really cool company because they offer such a wide range of different products. So our thought at HisReach was that you might be interested in the wide variety of items they have to offer.

We decided to use a system from Amazon called Omakase which basically automatically determines what types of products to display based on the content of our website. Well, it turns out that 1) when Amazon offers everything under the sun for sale…some of it is not appropriate (to say the least), and 2) we remembered we have had limited luck in the past with automated ad generation.

Needless to say, we have discontinued our affiliates program with Amazon and have gone back to only serving ads that have been pre-approved by the HisReach team. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience you experienced or any inappropriate material you may have seen on the HisReach website. We are working very hard to make sure that HisReach is the cleanest, most secure site on the web.

If there is ever anything that you see on HisReach that you disapprove of for any reason, please let us know and we will work to resolve the issue immediately.
