Hey, welcome to today’s podcasting tip, for the next 5 episodes I am going to do something a little bit different, I going to go through 7 tips to grow your audience.
So let’s get straight in with number one.
And that’s utilize the power of the podcast directories. I am sure you are aware of the main platforms to have your podcast on, but I am always surprised on how many people don’t get their podcast on every single platform, even when they launch. It’s so simple with today’s hosting… you set it up once and pressing publish goes to everything!
Whilst podcasts are still growing amongst the general public you need to break down the barriers for entry completely and make sure your podcast is everywhere.
So when you launch, get it on Apple podcast, which is iTunes, Stitcher, TuneIn, Spotify is a new one but a huge one taking five percent on listens — get it on the Android apps, and this will come from Apple podcasts.
Then a new major player that launched this year is Google Podcasts, which will take the android market by storm….. If you don’t know if you are on Google Podcasts or would like to get your show on there then check out my blog on this at podtips.pro/blog!
Make sure your podcast is everywhere that anyone can listen. So if they have that app already, they don’t have to go and download a new one! If you use a podcast host like Libsyn, you can set and forget with it…. Set them all up once and then hit publish for each episode and it will go everywhere!
Thanks for checking out todays Podcasting Tip…. There will be more tomorrow in the mini series of growing your audience.
