Podcasting for Book Profits
Are you podcasting yet? Think of a podcast as an internet radio show on demand. By creating your own podcast on a topic related to your books, you can develop an audience that is interested in what you have to offer. In future blog postings, I’ll cover how podcasting can have a direct impact on your book sales. But for now, just explore the world of podcasting to get an idea of what’s already out there and what you can do to target your message to your audience. Some sites to check out:
- Yahoo! Podcasts. A brand new site offering podcast search as well as news and info on getting started in podcasting. Yahoo is the first major player in the search industry to offer podcast search functionality. But according to a report by the washingtonpost.com, industry analysts predict the others won’t be far behind as podcasting moves more into the mainstream.
- Podcast Alley. Lists thousands of podcasts and includes an active podcasting forum.
- iTunes Podcast Directory. Features more than 15,000 free podcasts that you can download and play on your iPod–or listen to on your computer.
