So, What Makes a Good Podcast?


Not everything you write or blog about will be suitable for a Podcast, often some of the things are too long, not relevant or simply just do not work when transferred into audio, but there are lots of other things you can make into a podcast to download to your computer and allow your clients to listen to what you have to say.

So, what are the best things to make into a Podcast?

Latest News Snippets - If you want to tell the world about the latest company news or something that has happened for one of your clients, releasing a quick podcast is really the way to go. People will listen and remember what you are saying, where if you are writing a press release or loads of text, it can be quite difficult for the person looking at your news to remember exactly what you are say.

Top Ten Tips - Top ten tips or top five tips have really transformed the way articles are written, making them more concise and more popular on the Internet for users to find out information. This can be exactly the same with Podcasts, as people will download a short piece about the top ten ways to do this or maybe five ways to increase your sales. The options really are endless and just like articles, customers and clients really do prefer quick information and top ideas about how to do something.

Quick User Guides - Ever wanted to know how to change the oil in your car or simply wanted to find out how to replace a part in one of your coffee machines? How much easier would it be to listen to someone telling you how to do it, step by step, instead of having to read through loads of text and then print it all out to try and follow it. Your customers will love the fact they can download really quick guides to help them with all kinds of services and products you might offer and you will be really surprised how popular these might well become.

Opinions On The News - Reacting to the latest news is a good way to pick up instant and relevant traffic, especially if your website is relevant to the news you are commenting upon. The Internet has transformed the way news works, with 24 hour, live streaming news from all areas of the world accessible for free at anytime, thanks to our computers and broadband connection.

Niche Interviews And Debates - Interviews make a cracking Podcast. Often, interviews that have to be read from a computer screen or interview can make very boring reading, but when the user can actually hear the interview taking place, it often adds a new dimension and excitement to the process. Imagine having to read about Prime Minsters Question Time instead of watching it, you would lose the atmosphere; the banter and the general enjoy ability of a good interview or debate.
