Grow Your Audience with Podcast SEO
As the world moves into this content-heavy, all-video, new normal, you must embrace the platforms, workflows, and opportunities that work for you, and ignore the ones that don’t. If you’re already strapped for time, don’t try to adopt a new platform or add video into your workflow – you should be exploring outsourcing or deciding what to cut from your already-full plate.
Alternatively, if you’re working hard to establish a personal brand, have been wanting to “get out there” for a long time, and are interested in being strategic with your content creation to grow your business, then go all-in on ONE of the action items in this episode at a time.
If you can take action on only one thing in this episode, optimize your episode titles to reflect the phrases and questions your ideal clients are already typing into the search bar.
