Display Name

When selecting a display name on SoundCloud:

Keep it Consistent: Ensure your display name aligns with your branding across other platforms. This consistency helps fans easily recognize and find you.

Make it Memorable: Choose a name that is unique, easy to remember, and reflects your style or genre. Avoid using overly complex characters or symbols that might confuse your audience.

Consider SEO: Think about how your name might appear in search results. A clear and simple name can improve your visibility when fans search for your music.

Keep it Simple and Direct: We have a maximum limit of 50 characters for Display Names. If you are hitting this limit, your Display Name will not save properly.

Profile URL

When setting your profile URL:

Keep it Simple and Direct: Choose a simple URL that matches your display name to help fans find and share your profile easily. Profile URLs must be between 3 and 25 characters. Using "SoundCloud" in your URL is also not allowed.

Avoid Special Characters: Profile URLs can only have numbers, small letters, underscores, and hyphens. If you are using spaces or special characters in your Profile URL, you will be unable to save your changes.

Think Long-Term: Choose a URL that you will be comfortable with as your brand grows. Changing your URL later can lead to confusion and broken links.
