How To Get Started Making A Podcast

If you’re looking to make a acim podcast, then good for you. A podcast is something that you can use to market your products and services very effectively. I can remember when I use to make a podcast from extracting the audio from my YouTube videos that I used to create. That was a long while ago, but I still remember how to do it.

But a podcast is a very effective tool that you can use to further market your website. A podcast is simply and audio file that shares information about a particular topic. One of my favorite podcast is the Suze Orman podcast. If you don’t know who Suze Orman is, then obviously you have been living under a rock.

Suze Orman is a financial and money guru who has her own television show. Her show comes on at 9pm on Saturdays on CNBC. On the nights where I can watch her show, I simply download her podcast from iTunes. Speaking of iTunes, you will need to know what some of the popular podcast directories are that you can use to submit your podcast to.

By far iTunes is the world’s leading and largest podcast directory – but it isn’t the only one. In truth, there are a ton of podcast directories out there but you will get the bulk of your results from the top 3 of them. Luckily iTunes is free to submit to, so you will reach a lot of users using it.

The only drawback of a podcast is that people can’t “click” to your website. You will either have to spell out your website on your podcast or say it very slowly for your users to go to. When I used to do my YouTube videos, I had a graphical display of my web address at the bottom of the screen for users to go and type into their web browser. But with podcasts, you don’t have this option to do so.

Nevertheless, podcasts are still an excellent way to market your products and services. To get started with one, one of the most basic things that you will need is a medium. The medium that I suggest that you use is a blog. You can use your blog to host your podcast content. You can get a ton of hits to your blog by having people subscribe to your blog’s RSS feed.

You can get an RSS feed from something called Feedburner.com. There’s a special section on Feedburner specifically for people who have a podcast blog, and this will make your podcast content easier to get access to. Luckily the instructions on Feedburner are simple and easy to use, so you don’t have to encounter any complicated situations with getting your blog set up.

Podcasts are the way of the future. Almost everyone is using podcasts to market their business, and it’s a good thing that you’re researching it also because it can really help you to get new customers. Keep these tips in mind when making your own podcast.
