Here's how:

I. Locate, select, and copy the CD Baby Buy Now code

  • Point your browser to http://cdbaby.com/link
  • Search for your album either by Artist Name or Album Title. We'll look for Johnathan Coulton in this example.

Note: If you cannot locate your CD Baby Album and you know you are a CD Baby Artist, please contact CD Baby at 800-289-6923 (1-800-BUY-MY-CD).

II. Insert the Buy Now code onto your site

  • Log into your Site Builder Dashboard
  • Decide where to paste your button; you have two major spots. In the body of a page, or in your widget section.
  • Inserting the button on a Page:
    • For this example, we'll paste this on a Home Page. Go to Manage Pages > Click on your Home page to edit
    • Click on the HTML button to edit the Source HTML For this page.
