The last blog I wrote was kind of tongue in cheek on the whole band rating thing at ReverbNation.  So at that time we were ranked 1393 out of all the rock bands on their site.  I noticed that ranking the last time I checked into what was happening there for Q.R. Station.  Tonight I checked again, and we are now rated 1457.  Yeah, I know, we went down.  Sad news, right?  Well, not really.  Because this time I took a closer look to see how many rock bands are on their site.  Um, that would currently be 22,946.  I don’t want to say anything, but for a band that doesn’t have much time for this stuff given our day jobs and everything, that’s not bad.  As SwingDoom put it the other day, we haven’t even really released a song yet.  I mean, we’ve put up samples, but we really haven’t officially released any songs.

So how does the ranking work?  I haven’t looked in detail, but it’s things like the number of times our songs have been played, the number of visitors to our site on ReverbNation, and the number of people that have registered to be our fan.  So you can help us if you want to by playing our songs occasionally or by registering to be our fan, which you can do either on ReverbNation or at our web site, qrstation.com.  Our site isn’t very pretty, as we haven’t invested much time and effort into it.  One day we’ll get that right.

Anyway, we’re 1457 now, which when you look at the situation isn’t too bad.
