If you’re using a WordPress website, then it’s worth installing a social media sharing plugin. There are plenty of good ones out there, and you can browse through them all in your ‘Add New Plugins’ section.
Every podcaster likes listener feedback, but almost every podcaster feels they rarely if ever hear from anyone. In a lot of cases, this is simply because they’ve not made it easy enough.
Some podcasters like to offer a full list of every episode they’ve published to-date. Others prefer to curate a ‘Best Of’ list that can help pull in new listeners.
As we’ve mentioned many times before, your podcast might be consumed in over 100 different places. So sending your listeners to yourwebsite dot com slash subscribe is better than trying to list them all in your Call to Action.
The ‘About’ page is traditionally the most viewed page of any website, so it’s a good idea to take advantage of this. It should never be done as an afterthought.
It’s good practice to create a page or blog post for each podcast episode you release. This gives you one handy place to share each episode, and it means all of the traffic is coming to your own platform, too.
Podpage is a service that can build you a website for your show in less than five minutes. And you don’t need to know the slightest thing about web design, either.
If you’re looking for 100% full control, ownership, and customisation options, then WordPress is for you. Here, you can use all sorts of plugins and tools to make your site do pretty much anything. You can run your entire business on there.
The major difference between WAVs and MP3s are size and quality. WAV files contain more detail, but are also much bigger. Think of a WAV file as an original painting, and MP3 files as prints of that painting.
We’ve talked about having consistent volume levels throughout your episodes. But what about the overall volume level of your show compared to other podcasts?
No, this isn’t about blowing your car tyres up. Compression is an audio production technique where you take the loudest bits and quietest bits of a conversation, and bring them all closer together. It’s all about achieving volume-level consistency.
Some types of background noise can be cleaned up in the post-production phase. The constant hiss of a fan, or the low static hum of a microphone, for example. Audio software has the ability to recognise this and strip it out, whilst leaving the vocals intact.
