Here is my experience and learning from Digital Pratik's 7 Days Podcast Roadmap Challenge - Day 6
On this day, I learned about choosing the best hosting platform to host your podcasts.
1. Anchor
2. Buzzsprout
Anchor is completely free to start your podcast show, Whereas Buzzsprout has 90 Days Trials and then a Membership fee per month.
So you can start your podcast journey by choosing either anchor or Buzzsprout.
Create a free account on either Anchor or Buzzsprout and then Mention all the necessary details and also choose the Right Category of your Podcast.
Creating Your Podcast Artwork
To create your podcast display picture you can either choose it to do it by yourself or you can take the help of a designer. I choose to do it myself on Canva. It's a great tool for non-designers and has templates, to begin with.
Now when you publish your first episode.
You must take care of your Episode Title & Description, It will help you in ranking your podcast while people search for some keywords on any podcast platform.
So choose the right set of words to mention in your episode title and description. You can use Co-Headliner, an online tool to create Catchy Headlines.
The podcasting platform does provide a scheduling option that you can use to schedule your upcoming podcasts.
If you're using then you have to submit your podcast to other podcast platforms such as Apple Podcast, Soundcloud, Spotify.
But on the other hand, Anchor this cumbersome task is easily managed by Anchor.
I hope this is useful.
