About this episode
Check out my new offer - https://websitesmadesimple.co.uk/sparks-group-mentoring/ - a supportive group mentoring session created specifically for website designers and developers to bring their questions, roadblocks, ideas, and “is it just me?” momentsPodcasting can be a powerful marketing tool for website designers — but only if it’s done with intention.Welcome to another episode of Websites Made Simple with me, Holly Christie!In this episode, I share what I’ve learned from nearly two years of podcasting for my web developer mentoring and website design business. I cover strategy, production, audio quality, SEO, and, honestly, the expectations you should have.Most importantly, I share where I learned what I could have done better, what I did wrong and where I’ve seen others stumble, too.I talk about how to plan before you hit record.I explore the stuff I underestimated, like how much audio quality matters.I explain why relying on Zoom hurts listener retention, how podcast SEO is a thing, and why downloads grow slowly (spoiler: that’s normal).I’ll also show you how podcasting fits into a long?term marketing strategy rather than a quick win.If you’re a website designer thinking about starting a podcast — or wondering why yours hasn’t gained traction — what I’ve learned should help you reset your expectations and do it properly.Come and find out more at websitesmadesimple.co.uk or email me at hello@websitesmadesimple.co.ukHere are the links if you want to learn more about Neal and Podknows:https://podknows.co.uk/Skip to the good bits:00:00 "Podcasting: Consult, Plan, Produce"06:19 "Engaging and Concise Podcasting Tips"07:14 "Podcasting Goals and Advertising"10:45 "Boost Your Podcast with SEO"Mentioned in this episode:Join my Sparks Group Mentoring Programme
