Why it works

Why a feature in Billboard Japan matters

Japan is the second largest recorded music market in the world and is almost entirely untouched by Western press. For an artist with any Japanese presence or ambition, this reaches that market under a name the industry recognises. It is a separate publication from the American Billboard, and it is worth saying so plainly.

  • Musicians with Japanese audiences
  • Labels working in Asian markets
  • Artists planning Asian touring or release

Questions

Questions about Billboard Japan

01

How do I get featured in Billboard Japan?

You choose Billboard Japan as your outlet, share your story through our questionnaire, and our editorial team writes your feature. You approve every word before it goes live, and we handle the placement from there.

02

What exactly do I get with Billboard Japan?

A written feature about you, published on Billboard Japan and permanently indexed, which you approve before it goes live. We do not state whether it runs as ordinary editorial or in a branded section, because that varies by outlet and we would rather say nothing than tell you something we have not confirmed. Ask us and we will tell you what we know.

03

How long does it take?

It depends on the publication. Each outlet runs on its own publishing schedule, and timing also depends on how quickly the draft is approved. The timeframe for your chosen publication is set out in your service agreement.

04

What if I am not happy with the draft?

You get unlimited revisions. We only publish once you are fully satisfied, and our work is backed by a money-back guarantee.

05

How many monthly visitors does Billboard Japan have?

About 1.2 million visits a month, according to figure from our placement catalogues checked in September 2026. That is traffic to the whole site, not the readership of any single article.
