1. Introduction to White Labeling

White labeling allows you to create a fully branded music streaming service without any reference to BeMusic. This means your platform will carry your logo, colors, and domain, giving your users a seamless brand experience.

2. Initial Setup

1. Sign Up and Log In: Visit the BeMusic website, sign up with your details, and log in with your new credentials.
2. Choose Your Plan: Select the plan that best suits your needs (Basic: $99/month with a $500 setup fee or Premium for additional features).
3. Domain and Server: Choose your free domain name and server location. This is crucial as it ensures your platform is hosted on a private server with your chosen domain.

3. Customizing Branding

1. Upload Logo:

   • Navigate to the branding section in the admin dashboard.
   • Click "Upload Logo" and select your company logo. Ensure the logo is in a high-resolution format for the best appearance.

2. Set Brand Colors:

   • In the branding section, choose your primary and secondary brand colors.
   • These colors will be applied throughout the platform, ensuring a cohesive look and feel.

3. Custom Fonts:

   • If your brand uses specific fonts, upload them in the branding section.
   • Ensure that the fonts are web-compatible (e.g., Google Fonts) to maintain consistency across devices.

4. Domain and Server Setup

1. Domain Registration:

   • During the initial setup, you will be prompted to choose a domain name. This should be a name that represents your brand and is easy for your users to remember.
   • If you already have a domain, you can point it to the BeMusic server. Instructions for this are provided in the admin dashboard.

2. Server Configuration:

   • Your music streaming service will be hosted on a private server provided by BeMusic.
   • Ensure your server location is chosen based on the majority of your user base for optimal performance.

5. Customizing the User Interface

   • Ensure that the menu is intuitive and user-friendly.
