While not a direct selling site, YouTube has been leveraged by countless beatmakers to peddle their musical wares. The main advantage of YouTube is its search engine which is second only to Google! This has helped spawn the whole “type beat” phenomenon with beatmakers attempting to game the search through high-profile artist names. While many people offer their beats for free on YouTube, beatmakers can direct users to their selling platforms through the videos description.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
