    The SEO Strategy Podcasters Can't Ignore in 2026 with Darcy Sullivan

    SEO is evolving fast, and if you're a podcaster with a brick-and-mortar business or a local presence, you cannot afford to sleep on this. I brought in Darcy from the Clinic Marketing Podcast to break down exactly what's changing, what's staying the same, and how to make sure your ideal clients can actually find you, whether they're searching on Google, using voice search, or asking AI to do the work for them. We dug into what I call "boring fingers" SEO, because how we think and how we type are two completely different things. Your potential clients are not searching the way you talk about your services. They're searching their problems, and if your website, your Google Business Profile, and your content aren't built around those words, you're invisible. Darcy walked us through the SEO cookie framework, on-page, off-page, and the sweet stuff in the middle that holds it all together, which is knowing your people deeply enough to speak their language online. We also tackled the AI content question head-on, because I know most of you are using transcripts and AI tools to create blog content, and you needed clarity on what's actually working versus what's hurting you. Spoiler: Using AI with your voice is very different from letting AI replace it entirely.

    How Substack Actually Converts (And Why Podcasters Are the Best Positioned to Win)

    Join Yana's Viral Notes Creator + QUEST HERE  In Part 2 of my conversation with Yana, we get into the part most people never talk about. Not just how to show up on Substack, but how it actually converts into real revenue and why podcasters are uniquely positioned to win on this platform. Yana's free-to-play conversion rate sits at 10%. The industry average is 1 to 3%. We break down why Substack attracts subscribers who are already ready to buy, how the recommendation feature grows your list on autopilot, and what it actually takes to engage on the platform without it becoming another full-time job. We also get into automation. Yana built a system that takes her Substack content and distributes it across Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and YouTube without her having to touch any of it. And for podcasters specifically, she makes the case that your episode archive is already a content library and a product waiting to be built.   CONNECT WITH YANA Join Yana's Viral Notes Creator + QUEST HERE Unplugged with Yana (Substack) HERE CONNECT WITH JENN Ready to take your next step toward building a business from story?

    Every Podcaster Should Consider Starting a Substack (It's Not Just a Newsletter)

    Join Yana's Viral Notes Creator + QUEST HERE    Substack is far more than just a newsletter platform; it is a complete ecosystem that allows podcasters to take full ownership of their audience. In a world where social media algorithms are unpredictable, building an email list on a platform designed for discoverability is the smartest move a creator can make. I am joined by Yana to explain how Substack serves as an all-in-one creator platform that combines social media, email marketing, and paid subscriptions. We discuss how podcasters can stop the endless social media grind and start building a real business asset that they actually own. Unlike traditional social platforms, Substack lets you export your data at any time, so your audience belongs to you, not an algorithm. One of the biggest advantages of Substack is the ability to convert listeners into subscribers through features like Substack Notes and built-in recommendations. Yana shares how creators can use targeted AI tools to simplify their writing process and how a single viral post can lead to thousands of new subscribers. We also dive into the technical side, including how to integrate your podcast RSS feed and automate content distribution across other social channels without extra effort.
