Danny:One of the questions that frequently comes up is should I have a podcast website? And while you can let listeners just listen on their favourite podcast app, it's always, always useful to have a podcast website for your show. And here's why.
Danny:If a podcast app disappears, and some have over the years, then any listener that uses that, if they don't want to change the app, they're going to lose access to your podcast. With a podcast website, they've always got somewhere to come and listen. Additionally, you can have other features on there like a shop, email newsletter, online forum, premium subscribers, a whole lot of features, and it's awesome for SEO value as well. So if people are looking for the topic of your episode and you've optimized your show notes really well, then hopefully your episode will appear in that search, bringing new listeners to your podcast.
Danny:So I always recommend having a podcast website, whether that's a free one with your podcast host or a self hosted one on WordPress, Wix or Weebly, etc. Until the next time, happy podcasting.
Danny:Thanks for listening. If you're enjoying One Minute Podcast tips, be sure to leave a five star rating or review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify and help others find the show too. Until next time, happy podcasting.
