    What has a self help book got to do with podcasting?

    What has self help books to do with podcasting. I was listening to a podcasting club on clubhouse where one of the host was from what I gather selling his book on the club. He was quoting passages from the bible. I am not sure if he was one of these life coach people. I have only come across them on club house. I am in the UK, so perhaps they are a thing in the USA. I have listened to many on clubhouse and have noticed many seem to use the same script I heard from the 1980’s when people were pushing pyramid selling. Many of the large clubs on clubhouse seem to be populated by these people. I have heard people selling there homes to pay these people believing they will become wealthy. But end up with nothing. But back to this podcasting club on clubhouse. Until all of a sudden I was banned (what have they to hide), they were talking about buying 500 books. It was extremely odd. I did wonder if the host/owner of the club had been paid or was on commission from this chap. Personally I feel clubhouse needs to let people opt in or out of clubs that are hosted by people pushing a product or service.

    Make money with your podcast using BuyMeACoffee

    I came across a site that may interest podcasters. It is called BuyMeACoffee.com. To put simply it lets people pay you a small amount if they like your site or podcast or indeed whatever. I set up a page today. https://www.buymeacoffee.com/clubpod You can opt in for membership too where people can pay you monthly or yearly. You can get paid via PayPal and some other payment system (I forget the name). Then all you need do is tell people your link. In a podcast you can simply say, ‘If you enjoy this podcast, feel free to send me a dollar or two to buymeacoffee.com/clubpod (but of course change clubpod to your name)’. You can also put the link on your vid. And why not add the link in your podcast description too. The website lets you add a very nice button to your website with ease. Remember that the website presumably takes a cut of whatever people pay you.  So one presumes if someone sends you via the site $5, one presumes you will not get the full $5 (I could be wrong). This may or may not be some use to you. I will see how things go and report back later. As my site/podcast is small and just gets a few visits, I do not expect to get any cash, but podcasts with thousands of listeners may make a nice income from doing this.

    It is easy to add your podcast to other sites using your RSS feed

    The way things work is simple in podcasting. You find a site to host on. You get an RSS feed. You then add your podcast to the many distribution sites, such as apple and Spotify. This is very easy to do. If a firm offers to do this for you for a fee, tell them to go shove a brick where the sun does not shine. All you do is find the RSS feed on the host site.  In my case my RSS feed is:  https://anchor.fm/s/4dc6fed8/podcast/rss If you use a Anchor then you need to turn the display personal email in RSS feed to on as some sites may not except the RSS feed without it. I could not find the option on the anchor app, and did it on the anchor website.  But it could be on the app, and I simply did not see it. Now all you have to do is a quick search for each site you want your podcast on. I tend to search for ‘add podcast to [website]’ for the direct link as some sites are not easy to find it. Some all you need to is copy and paste the RSS link in, while others you have to join first. I found adding the RSS link to apple a bit harder, as I found for me that I had to use my apple account. I mean by this the email that I registered my apple account on my apple mobile and password.  I am not sure you can add your podcast without an apple account. Once I did that, I just added the RSS link and was approved about 4 days later. Some sites that host your podcast may automatically add your podcast to some sites with a press of a button.

    Use the bitrate Constant or CBR when saving podcasts

    In truth, it is only a few days ago I read that when saving podcasts that it is recommended that you save using bitrate Constant or CBR (and I have no idea what it means). Your soft wear may be set to save this version as it is. However I found in the software I was using it was set to something different, so I had to change it.

    Be very carful using copyrighted material such as music in your podcast

    Be extremely careful about using copyrighted material, such as music or indeed clips from TV shows or podcasts on your podcast. You need to be 100% sure you are fine to do so, or it could get extremely expensive. Just because others may do it does not mean you will not get found and be sent a huge bill for copyright use. A lady on clubhouse in a podcast room was telling people how she used music she found on YouTube on her podcast. And not a single person said she may have legal problems doing so. Personally I would not at this point record shows from clubhouse. I do not care if people in the room all said it was fine to record or that you put in your comments that you are recording. At the moment in the terms of service it clearly states you need written permission to record.  On top of this clubhouse is a closed app in many ways. First you have to log into the app, then you have to join/enter a club. As such, people may indeed presume privacy.  I keep hearing moderators of rooms state it is fine to record if you tell people.  Considering this could be considered clear legal advice, they may themselves find themselves being sued if other get sued or even simply loose the clubhouse account due to recording a room, after they were told by a moderator it was fine to do so. Unless you have got legal advise to say recording a clubhouse show, let alone use it on such as a podcast, then I would be extremely carful. At the moment I am going to avoid recording ClubHouse shows until it becomes clear that this is legally fine to do so. I am not telling you not to, just to be carful that you do not get into trouble from doing so. Be carful too of background music.  Last year I was sent a message on YouTube stating they had automatically removed some music from a YouTube vid of mine. I was surprised by this as I had not recorded music.  When I played the vid back, you could hear a car pass with music on. It was hardly noticeable, but the clever software YouTube uses, picked it up.

  8. Use QR Codes to promote your podcast

    07/03/2021

    Use QR Codes to promote your podcast

    Use QR Codes to promote your podcast shows. For at least a year now, a qr reader has been built into the iphone. You had to download an app, but now all iPhones and I believe android phones should scan qr codes. Simply go to your camera app, and it should in photo mode automatically scan a qr code. If your phone does not, then you may have to go into your settings to turn this option on. The advantage of a qr code is you do not have to tell people the name of your podcast, and hope they bother to search for it. As many will not bother. You can get them to scan the qr code and like magic they have the link on there mobile. It is free to do qr codes and you will find many sites that will create them for you. Just enter an url or indeed almost anything and it will create a qr code. You can print them on business cards or on the side of your car. So next time you are at such as a podcasting event, just hand out business cards with your at code on.
