## Mixcloud

Mixcloud is an audio streaming platform for DJs, radio stations, labels, podcasters, and music communities. A public creator profile can include external links in the profile text, which makes it useful for branded discovery and referral traffic rather than clean dofollow SEO value.

The useful Mixcloud backlink path is the public creator profile, not an uploaded track description. Use it when your brand legitimately belongs in music, radio, DJ mixes, podcasts, events, or audio culture.

### Add your website to a public Mixcloud profile

1. Create or log in to a [Mixcloud account](https://www.mixcloud.com/signup/).
2. Open the account-gated [profile settings page](https://www.mixcloud.com/settings/profile/).
3. Add your website, booking page, label site, podcast homepage, or other relevant URL in the public profile/about area.
4. Save the profile and open the public profile URL while logged out or in a private browser to confirm the link is visible.
5. Keep the profile credible with a real avatar, short description, and at least enough audio or creator context that the external link does not look like a throwaway SEO placement.

A public example is the Boiler Room Mixcloud profile. Its external website link is visible in the profile text, but the inspected anchor is nofollow: `<a href="http://boilerroom.tv" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">http://boilerroom.tv</a>`.

### Link quality notes

Mixcloud's profile links are direct outbound links, but the public example links include `rel="nofollow noopener"`. That means this is not a clean dofollow backlink source. The practical value is still real when the audience fit is right: a DJ, label, event, show, or podcast profile can send interested listeners to a booking page, newsletter, merch store, or main website.

Do not create a bare Mixcloud profile just to drop a link. It is more likely to be ignored, and it gives readers no reason to click. Treat the backlink as part of a complete public audio profile.
