Unpublishing/Deleting old songs

[Charlmot]

I've been thinking

I have so many songs that I don't like,

But is it really worth it to delete/unpublish all of them to have a cleaner page?

Is it possible by chance to "private" them? As in still have them on the site but not available to the public?

Or is my best option simply to just get rid of the songs that I don't like entirely?

I know you guys have much more experience with this so I hope you guys can help 🙂

This is basically making it 'unlisted', you can share the preview page link to other people and they'll be able to listen to it depending on what preview access setting you pick.

Oh, thank you so much

I don't know how I never realized that lol

I really appreciate the help

You can always download them and store them in some archive somewhere before taking them down. At least that way you have a copy.

On my website I have a page where you can download my old eJay projects, some of which weren't publicly available for one reason or another. I keep that as an archive available because I think it's important to remember and understand our roots when it comes to creating any form of art.

That's true! I might do that eventually, thanks for letting me know
