Q & A

Q. Why can't I submit a wedding band?

A. We know why you want to - to bump up your rank but besides we only accept original artists .

Q. Why can't I find the band I'm looking for?

A. The Band has not submitted their site to Outtloud, however, we will give you the option to use Google web to search the entire web. We are in the process of adding sites so please check back soon.

Q Is the site free?

A Yes, it will always be free for users and bands. Outtloud is here to provide a free and effective way to find your favorite band site.

Q How do I submit my band site.

A. Please visit submit and complete the form and submit. Your band will be listed in 24hours or sooner. We will let you know if it is longer.

Q. I don't understand how the search works?

A. Outtloud adds your band site and prioritizes it to come first on our search engine. When you search, it will list only bands that have submitted and any mention of your band in other submitted sites. The band you are searching for will appear on the top of the search to make it easy to find. Meta tags and word tricks are irrelevant as the search prioritizes URL. Outtloud will also not count links or list your third party sites beyond your URL and pages. This is to prevent spam and piracy. 

Users type in a band name or song name and the search will find mention of this in all submitted sites.

Q. Why does it say Google and go to Google?

A  We use Google APIs and the search only for now is hosted on Google. When we launch the new engine you will be listed if you are not at present.

Q Why wouldn't I use just Google then?

A Please do, we were big fans of Googles achievements but say you are searching for 

eg "Smashing Pumpkins" (despite them already being at the top of Google search already), you would have over 2million pages to search through plus listing Pumpkins, weird family games, smashing of every forms and a myriad of other Pumpkins , if they where not such a popular band.

eg : "The Fish that John West Rejected" an 80's band from Sydney. Good Luck in finding these on Google. You get over 8million listings including John West, John's, West's, Tuna, Canada, Manufacturing, Rejection, Depression!, Fish etc etc - On Outtloud they are on the top of the search (if they submitted).

Q After I search how do I go back to Outtloud?

A Click on the icon at the top and you will go back to the home page or just click your back button on your browser.
