Show Notes
In this episode of "Your Podcast Website," host Dave Jackson emphasizes the importance of having a dedicated website for podcasters. He argues that relying solely on social media platforms can be precarious, as they are subject to changes and shutdowns that could disconnect creators from their audiences. Using examples like MP3.com, Friendster, and MySpace, Dave illustrates the risks of building a presence on platforms that podcasters don't own. He advocates for a personal website to centralize all activities and ensure control over content and audience interaction. The episode is packed with practical advice on website creation, optimizing for search engines, and the benefits of direct audience engagement through a dedicated platform.
Quotes:
"If you don't have a website, how are people going to find you?"
"When you make a platform that you don't own your main home base, you are building your house on rented land."
