Welcome to the new look, new format Podcast Insider! For Episode 333, CEO Todd Cochrane (@GeekNews) and Blubrry Support Evangelist Mike Dell (@MGDell) take us back to the basics to discuss the best ways to start a podcast. We hope you enjoy today's episode of Podcast Insider; we've worked hard to ensure that you're getting the best podcast knowledge. We'll still be periodically having guests on, so if you're interested in being featured reach out to the team. Today's Hosts: Todd Cochrane and Mike Dell We cover a variety of items at hand when starting your podcast. Topics - Pick one you're relentlessly passionate about and won't run out of things to say about it; skip popular and stick with something you care about. Podcast Titles - Do your research and secure the title quickly. Research other shows, you can do so here. Don't make this too difficult to spell or pronounce. Websites / Domains - Lock down a URL before it's already taken. Consider if it will be your show title, network, business, your name, etc. Artwork - 1400x1400 is recommended. Directories are very picky about this, so you have to get the specs right. RSS Feed - Time to setup the lifeblood of a podcast; we suggest using PowerPress and Blubrry hosting.
