After all, you became an Internet marketer to make money right? Making a profit from something you get absolutely free is one of the smartest ways there is to make money so read on to discover how you can boost your income from using music you can get absolutely free!

Use Music in Your Videos

Many Internet marketers have learned how valuable it is to include video as part of their overall Internet marketing campaigns. While not every video endeavor will need music to accommodate it, you can choose from a wide variety of free music to accompany many of your videos. For example, you may have a series of pictures you are stringing together to make a video to advertise one of your projects, maybe an ebook or a special report. How much more valuable would that clip be with just the right music added to it? Add the fact that you won’t have to pay for the music and you have a winning combination.

Use Public Domain Music for Sound Effects

Did you know you can find sound effect recordings in the public domain that you can freely use? Not everyone realized this and some Internet marketers pay for expensive services to create sound effects they probably could have gotten free had they known where to get them. All you have to do is conduct an Internet search for public domain music and you will be presented with a plethora of websites that will direct you to the right sources for music files. While it is up to you to verify that these files are indeed in the public domain, doing so is relatively easy also.

Free Music May not be in the Public Domain

It’s important to realize whether or not the clips, songs, or other music related material you are using is truly from the public domain, which means there are no restrictions whatsoever on how you use the material or if you are using material that has certain licenses you must abide by. For example, you can download free music sound effects and clips from Freesound, but you must cite the source. In addition, since each country has its own laws regarding public domain, you will have to abide by the laws of the country in which the public domain music or clip originated.

Public Domain Sheet Music

There is a wide variety of free public domain sheet music that you can readily find online. Internet marketers with musical talent can profit by taking the free sheet music and coming up with their own compositions, which they can then copyright and sell via digital download, on CD, or both. There is no limit what you can do with public domain material, including music, to further your Internet marketing enterprise.
