Growing as an artist isn't easy. Many artists like you are working hard for the same goal: fame. That's why now it is quite tough to increase your popularity online. You should also keep in mind that many people are hesitant to show love to newcomer artists and their songs. The good part is that Spotify's algorithm matches your songs with its possible audience. There are automatic-generated playlists around a music genre that Spotify suggests to the people with the matching music taste. Also, there are exclusive "discover weekly" playlists created by the Spotify algorithm every week using the calculations and estimations on the listener's music taste. Let's say that you make music in the indie genre. Spotify can suggest your songs to people listen to indie all the time. Also, if your genre and general music style are similar to other artists, you or your band can show up on other musicians' profile pages under the Similar Artists tab.

Let's assume that you are a new artist and just uploaded your latest single on Spotify. While everybody's music taste is different, and one song can be described as trash. At the same time, other people think it is a masterpiece; but let's assume that your song is appealing for everyone and generally well-made. You can expect that your song will break the charts. However, there are millions of people who create music, and many ambitious artists that create excellent-quality songs go unnoticed. In contrast, bigger superstars' not-so-good songs hit the top lists. As an upcoming creator, what will be your strategy to save your song from disappearing between thousands of new songs on Spotify and make it a hit?
