the venue or the artist’s name. You have to focus on more precise words so that
attendees will be able to find your event easily.

event on the event listing site.
When you provide the picture, you
have to make sure that it suits the criteria given by the site. You may need to
customize the picture more if it’s required by the site. Profiles with a catchy
pictures are likely to attract more viewers.
You may need to provide a concert
ticket link.

link, they can directly buy tickets through that link.

sites that are most relevant.
If you only post your ad on the most
appropriate sites, you are more likely to gain the attention of most concert
viewers. Think closely the purpose of your event and try to get to know more
