FREE Music downloads on website

Get Started

Hello,

I’m building a website for a friend that wants to add FREE music downloads to the site.
The music is in MP3/WAV format. To have someone click on the link and download is it
simply placing the hyperlink on the website or does it involve more?

Thanks,
Troy

Yes it can be that simple as that; unless you mean you want to force the download of all files with *.wav and *.mp3 extensions, which I suspect is the preferred method your friend is wanting?

Hello,

Back again. I added the links (.mp3) and when clicked they play the music in the defaul player or the visitor can download to their computer.
My client now wants to change things up a bit and do the following when a visitor clicks on the “Download FREE Music” link:

  1. Take the visitor to Email Capture landing page
  2. Add their email address to be stored in a file/database for contact info
  3. After adding Email address they access the music download page
  4. When they download a file (.mp3) they want them to see the ALBUM image cover
    when the music is played similar to what ITUNES does.

So I guess my question is whether this is simple to do using HTML in Dreamweaver or if there is a script already created for this?

Thanks,

tdsilk you need to code them in PHP or any other server side scripting to store user details like, email, name etc.,

To show album cover…the same PHP script will help you fetch them. I think you can find a ready code for this.
