Abstract: The invention provides new and improved methods and systems for online promotion, marketing and distribution of artistic works. An embodiment of a system for distributing artistic works comprises an online store configured for sale and distribution of artistic works to individual buyers. A link server is configured to store links to webpages related to artists works stored in the online store. The link server is configured to download at least one link to a fan computer via the Internet in response to a fan-initiated request for at least one link. The links are configured for embedding by said fan in a clickable portion of the fan's webpage. The online store tracks purchases of artistic works corresponding to a fan's link. The online store provides a reward to the fan based on the tracked purchases.
