Hi there!
Looking for a little afternoon procrastination but still want to feel productive? We’re at your service. Today’s 3 podcast growth tips / food (snacks?) for thought are here!
TIP 1 - Should you pay for podcast downloads?Â
The short answer? If strategically and sparingly, then yes. It’s only appropriate to pay for podcast downloads when there’s a clear goal, such as meeting specific requirements of a network.
TIP 2 - Show your podcast trailer some love
One of the most overlooked elements that is essential to your podcast’s success? Your trailer.
Did you cringe? No need. There are a bunch of us walking around with embarrassing (or non-existent) trailers 😎Â
Podcast trailers help you stand out by giving listeners a taste of your content in a special promotional space on podcast listening apps.
Need some inspo?
TIP 3 - Home Sweet Website.
We don’t know if you’ve noticed but people are nosy. Listeners LOVE inviting themselves over to a cozy online home so create a dedicated website for your podcast. This is great for SEO too.
