Recently I've been getting asked a lot of questions about podcast networks and databases - are they worth your time or money?
Podcast databases are usually Software As A Service (or SAAS) products that allow you to search, network, and pitch podcast hosts (or guests). So because they keep coming up, and it's likely to be the kind of service that keeps on growing, I decided to take a closer look at them, along with Kim Stewart, our Account Exec here at The Podwize Group.
We chose to review four podcast databases - Podcast Hawk, Podcast Guests, PodMatch, and The Podcast Collaborative. We describe how each works, the different price points, what the user experience is like, and who we think will benefit from using them.
Full disclosure: although there are some definite benefits for this kind of service, I don't think any of them is going to change the way that we go about things at the Podwize Group. However, if you're just getting started guesting on podcasts, these services can give you a real jump-start. And the fact that most of them offer a free membership or a trial period for you to experiment and check out what is offered is a no-brainer to see what they can do for you.
