Once you've got the regular social media update down, we're going to try campaigns on for a spin. Focused, targeting, goal-oriented social campaigns? You got it!! youtu.be/PnQ-UCLm6L8

An email newsletter for your podcast can either be a regular update (you tend to send them on your schedule) or an automated update (timed to when it might be more relevant to your audience). Both are great for ongoing engagement. youtu.be/K8pz9NtSsNg

News you can use: an email newsletter for your podcast keeps your fans in the loop while bringing them closer to you with each and every edition. youtu.be/6G8MMcDAjrw

Podcast first, yes. How else can you communicate with your audience beyond audio? With email newsletters and social media campaigns! about.radiopublic.com/2020/01/31/com…

Enjoying our podcast web strategy video series? #evolutions2020 attendees can see a version live at 11:30am PT today with Ma'ayan Plaut. embed.pheedloop.com/evolutions2020…

An episode is just the start of establishing your podcast on the web. Use your episode to create an original article to double (or triple... or more!) the reach of an episode. youtu.be/5j8kRyOqoLk

Metrics matter. And so do spreadsheets. Nicola Korzenko joins @theNWpodcast to talk about how to build a six figure podcast business at #evolutions2020 today at 12pm PT. embed.pheedloop.com/evolutions2020…

Two things to help someone press play on your podcast: a video trailer (did you know: we ❤️ videos!) and step by step instructions on how to listen. youtu.be/DoBopWxaeTs

Adding social proof in the form of listener testimonials and press mentions to your podcast website makes all the people say, Heyyyy I should try this podcast! youtu.be/urel1HjpPWY

An awesome way to get people to want to listen to your podcast: a logline. One smart, moving, action-packed sentence to get people to go, 'Yes! This is for me!' youtu.be/z3Tkui_QvLE

Even more ways to make your podcast website great... a host bio and headshot help people fall in love with you and your show. youtu.be/VwvKnoiJ6Lc

It's 'Make your podcast website awesome one piece at a time!' week! Up first: How to choose and use a gateway episode for your podcast. youtu.be/6Ah0aHOx8sg

Okay. We'll get right to it. Here's why you need a website for your podcast. youtu.be/81inFkjthXQ

Every single part of your podcast website needs a little bit of TLC (totally logical content) to help a visitor become a listener. Seven videos to help you do right by your audience: about.radiopublic.com/2020/01/31/bui…

So... what's a podcast web strategy, exactly? We'll tell you what it is (and what it isn't) in this introduction to web strategy for podcast audience growth video. youtu.be/RTIOlFLOowk

You have one main goal when it comes to your podcast's web presence: you want people to listen to your podcast. And that focus helps you create a long-term plan for audience growth - through all the ways in which your podcast exists online. youtu.be/SaHRTIiZIZA

Where to begin, where to begin, with twelve (!!) videos about audience growth strategy? Well... anywhere! Though why not begin with the two important questions: what's a podcast web strategy and how do you do it? about.radiopublic.com/2020/01/31/aud…
