Music promotion + social publishing

Looking for a Linkfire alternative?

MBX Artists brings release links, artist pages and fans together with MBX Flow’s social publishing. As a Linkfire alternative, it is worth evaluating when you want to run both the destination page and the ongoing posts that promote it. Linkfire offers music campaign links and detailed insights, including team and enterprise options.

Both halves of your release campaign

Linkfire’s reviewed pricing page documents music links, streaming insights and marketing integrations. It does not establish a general multi-network publishing queue. MBX Artists includes MBX Flow’s scheduling alongside the music tools, connecting the task of building a release destination with the routine of posting about it. This does not imply identical streaming attribution.

A place for fans to act

Build an artist card, release smart links and download gates. Give listeners a route to your music, your shows and your fan list.

A schedule that brings them there

The artist plans include MBX Flow’s queue and scheduler. Pro adds Smart Revival, Evergreen Library, Twitch Live Alerts, YouTube Auto Promotion, RSS and WordPress workflows.

Publishing destinations include Facebook, Instagram, Threads, X, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Bluesky, Mastodon, Discord and Telegram. Availability depends on the network, account type, connection setup and content format. Check the complete network list and setup requirements and current account allowances and X Credits.

From Pro, you can also use Claude, ChatGPT and connected apps to work with your MBX Flow queue. Music-service links on a release page and social publishing destinations are different capabilities.

MBX Artists vs Linkfire

Begin with the decisions your reports need to support. A service-button click, an attributed stream and engagement on a social post are different measurements. Decide which data your artist or label actually uses, then test the journey from a scheduled post to a music destination rather than comparing dashboard screenshots alone.

Why consider MBX Artists?

Connect the release destination to daily publishing

A smart link answers where a fan should listen. The MBX Flow queue answers when and where you will tell them about it. Build a week of announcements, context and reminders around the same release to assess the benefit of having those tasks together.

Give returning fans a wider view of the artist

The artist card brings a biography, platform buttons, releases and upcoming shows into one destination. Use a specific release link for a focused campaign and the artist card when a listener wants to discover the rest of the project.

Who is MBX Artists for?

Independent musicians and managers who want release destinations and social publishing together. Labels that rely on particular streaming-attribution partnerships, enterprise governance or data delivery should verify those requirements individually before moving.
