Music is the glue that holds your podcast together. Do it wrong, or fail to use music at all, and your audience may feel like something is off- even if they can’t quite put their finger on what it is. Personally, I believe music is a must for your podcast. So, let’s talk about ways you can spice things up.
Based on my experience, it’s the biggest thing holding most people back from podcasting. If you don’t love to edit, then it’s kind of a pain, even if you have a really simple recording set-up with only a couple of tracks. But what happens when there’s an issue with your audio? A faint hum in your audio line, or a guest whose favorite word seems to be “um”. Should you tackle the editing beast by yourself, or hire a podcast editor?
Get a home base for your podcast You’ve got your podcast, great! Now, where do you put it?

Your podcast isn’t just a podcast. It’s also a blog post, a YouTube short, and a meme just waiting to be found. How on earth do you make this work? You make it work by making it worth your while. In today’s episode, we’ll discuss how to make your podcast content work in multiple ways.

It would be nice if every podcast had a robust marketing budget to help get the word out about their show. But the reality is, most don’t. Yeah, you can promote to your client list and share some stuff on social. But you really want podcast audiences to know about your content, and that’s where SEO, search engine optimization, matters. So how do you make your podcast appear in the search results?
Most podcast experts, including myself, will tell you it’s really important to release content on a regular basis. And that’s true! When you’re consistent, you show people you’re serious about your podcast. But is it ever ok to re-release podcast episodes? Is it taboo for podcasts?
Whenever you’re presenting content, it’s a good idea to be prepared, right? Even if you know your topic really well, your environment may be different, you may be speaking to a different audience. Well, creating content for your podcast is no different. You are the expert and you’re representing your business.
If you have a podcast, you need a podcast host provider. And not all providers are created equal.

So, how do you make this switch as seamless as possible? And what are some common mistakes podcasters make during this transition?
One of the really cool things about podcasting is the ability to record with anyone, anywhere. If the last two years have taught us anything, it’s the importance of being able to connect with each other- regardless of where you’re at on the planet. And to do that, you need to record your podcast remotely.
