Podcasts are very popular and can easily be added to your blog content with five simple steps. Since a podcast can be downloaded and listened to at any time, it makes sense to offer it as a subscription option as well.
Five Steps To Podcast Success
Plan your podcast: is it going to be a recording of your blog post or are you going to do special one of posts like problem solving or how to’s. Part of your planning is to script what you are going to record.
Record your podcast: recording is fairly simple and straightforward. There are many free and paid software packages available - it is simply a matter of following their instructions.
Upload to a server: upload to either your website server or to a podcast hosting service. If you plan on doing regular podcasts then using a podcasting host will be money well spent. Podcasts can put a drain on your bandwidth and storage space.
Create a podcast feed: create a podcast feed using either a dedicated service or Feedburner. If you use Feedburner for your RSS feeds then using them for your podcasts is quite sensible. They also provide reasonable tracking statistics as well.
Promote: that is it. Promote your podcast, on your site, through social media and in emails.
Podcasting is not difficult and can become a valuable addition to your blog content. The next step is to learn how to promote your own products within a podcast - thats for another post I think.
