Before we delve into the second part of our Ultimate Guide to Promoting Your Podcast, if you haven’t read Part 1, click here to go back and peruse the post. Don’t worry, we’ll wait. Why? Well in the first part of our ultimate guide, we touched upon some essential podcasting questions, which include tips and tricks about creating your own website and implementing the perfect marketing and social media strategy for your podcast.
In Part 2, we will focus more specifically on DISTRIBUTION. How can you distribute your podcast to the right people? Well, we’ve got you covered.
(Last Update: June 18, 2020) At Spreaker we want to give you the best opportunities to make your podcast a huge success, how can we help you do that? By giving you as many tools and features for creating excellent content and facilitating easy podcast distribution.
With Spreaker there are already so many ways for you to personalize your podcasting experience: live stream or pre-record, experiment with music and sound, monetize via our revenue program and now we’ve added a super simple way for you to syndicate your podcast to all the key platforms.
Update: We’ve just added another distribution channel to the list: JioSaavn.
A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, a young boy fell in love with a modern-day myth. Now, he is passing that love for Star Wars along to his two sons.
David Jesse’s first Star Wars memories were watching
A New Hope
on HBO; playing with 3.75” Luke Skywalker and Han Solo figures in his backyard; making lightsabers out of paper towel rolls, and picking his jaw up off the floor when he was given a Tie Fighter for Christmas. His family wasn’t the movie-going type, so he never had the privilege of seeing the Original Trilogy in theaters, but he definitely shook with disbelief when Darth Vader revealed that he was Luke’s father in the
Empire Strikes Back.
Bruce Wawrzyniak, host of “Now Hear This Entertainment” wrote in a previous guest post that he fears podcasters are constantly adopting a “build it and they will come” approach. But with over 1 million podcasts in circulation, distribution on a variety of different platforms is not enough – although, with Spreaker’s one-click distribution, it does help. But the question remains: how can you promote your podcast?
The last several weeks have been nothing short of an emotional rollercoaster thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re all experiencing big changes and shifts in our daily routines, especially because the vast majority of us are quarantined in our homes. From anxious to grateful and bored to hopeful, we’re all likely experiencing a vast array of emotions on a daily basis. In this time of uncertainty, not only is that okay, but it’s completely understandable!
We’ve made a simple change that’s going to have a big impact on how listeners find you: we’ve updated our categories. Why is this so important? The latest version of Spreaker’s categories are now the same as Apple Podcasts’ categories – making for quicker, better, categorization for you!
We’re excited to announce that we’ve added another distribution outlet to our one-click / tap distribution function: Podcast Addict.
Podcast Addict is the most popular and downloaded podcast listening app on the Google Play Store, according to the platform they have had over 9 million downloads and are home to 750 thousand podcasts. The platform’s importance is sure to make it a fundamental distribution point for all podcasters as Android’s share of the market continues to grow.
October 8 Update: This year’s #WerkItFestival was truly a memorable one! Didn’t get a chance to be there or listen live? You can listen to them here:
Werk It from Wherever
ICYMI, earlier this month we announced our title sponsorship for Werk It, a women’s podcast festival, in Los Angeles on October 3-4! One of the things we’re most excited about bringing to the partnership is our live broadcast of the entire event utilizing our Spreaker Studio app’s live broadcasting tool.
That means, no matter where you are, you’ll be able to tune in and hear all the incredible sessions during both days of the festival (for free)!
How? It’s simple. Just visit WerkItFestival.com during the scheduled session times on October 3 and 4 and you’ll see two Spreaker Web Players – Main Stage and Second Stage sessions – where you can press play and enjoy.
