How to identify services that will waste your money or get your account flagged
Watch for guaranteed stream counts
Any service that promises a specific number of streams (like '10,000 plays for $50') is almost certainly using bots. Real promotion connects you with curators who independently decide whether to feature your music -- the stream count depends on the playlist's audience, not a preset number.
Check whether engagement ratios make sense
If a track has 50,000 plays but zero saves, zero comments, and zero playlist adds, those plays came from bots. Real listeners save tracks they like, follow artists they discover, and occasionally leave comments. Organic promotion produces natural engagement patterns.
Understand how platforms detect and punish fraud
Spotify and SoundCloud use sophisticated fraud detection that monitors listening patterns, device fingerprints, and geographic distribution. Flagged tracks lose streams retroactively, get removed from algorithmic recommendations, and in severe cases lead to account suspension.
Understand what real promotion delivers
The measurable differences between organic and artificial growth
Expect saves and follows alongside streams
Organic listeners who enjoy your music save the track, follow your profile, and add it to their own playlists. These secondary signals tell the algorithm your music is genuinely popular, which triggers more organic recommendations.
See geographic diversity in your stats
Real playlist followers come from around the world. If your Spotify for Artists dashboard shows streams concentrated in a single country or city with no connection to your marketing, that is a fraud signal. Organic campaigns produce naturally distributed listening.
Build compound growth over time
A real listener who discovers your track through a playlist might follow you, stream your next release, and share your music with friends. Bot plays are a dead end -- the number goes up once and never converts to anything real.
Keep your account safe from penalties
Organic promotion carries zero risk to your streaming accounts because the engagement is genuine. You are not violating any platform terms of service -- you are simply getting your music in front of curated audiences who might enjoy it.
