35 Examples of Rock Band Website Designs & How To Solve 5 Conversion Problems


You can’t imagine your life nowadays without the internet. We all spend hours and hours doing various things, like work, research, entertainment.

Marty Note
Sometimes it is good to look at a group of websites. This link includes 35 examples of rock band websites. The convention is clear. Rock band staged photo looking out directly at the camera, lots of texture and dark colors in the designs. Here is how any one of these sites could increase conversion 3x or 4x:

* Lighten Up - all that dark texture and color lowers conversion.
* Calls To Actions - lack of clear CTA’s (BUTTONS) in these designs hurt conversion.
* Scream Less - visitors are already fans, so scream less convert more.

* FANS - where are the fans (testimonials, games, contests).

* Games & Mobile - each band should be screaming to download the app.


Of these 35 designs Metallica and Incubus would convert the best. I understand branding must be done, but this much screaming branding is obsessive and damaging to conversion. Sometimes the best brand strategy is to make it easy for fans or supporters to JOIN and CONTRIBUTE.

Everyone of these band sites feels like a lecture NOT a conversation. Funny concerts aren’t like this. Concerts are a give and take between the crowd’s energy and the band’s performance one contributing to the other. Web, at its best, works that way too but not here so much.
