So: to upload your very first episode of your show to your podcasts.com podcast - login to your account with the details you had given and saved. Click on the "add episode" button on the top right had side of the screen. You are then presented with a screen that lets you pick which podcast you want to add an episode to, so choose your podcast name. You can create as many shows as you wish using podcasts.com Choose a catchy and engaging episode title. It can be funny, or entertaining or flashy as long as it relates to what's actually in your show. Create your description. This is the container that describes the episode in detail, as well as acting as a shownotes function where you post relevant links to articles you've referenced, or links to other people's channels that you've spoken to. You can even put your contact information and social links here to drive further traffic to those funnels to boost engagement. The next description is a shorter one that appears under the podcast as a quick summary of what is in the episode at a glance. This needs to be a sort of headline that grabs attention for all passers by. Next is the keyword section. This is where you can use rapidtags.io to get some free relevant keywords for your content with commas automatically separating them. Simply go to rapidtags.io, use the free tools and type your episode keyword or title in the search bar. Once the results appear and they appear relevant to you, simply hit the red copy button, and they'll be copied to your clipboard. Paste them into your keywords box and they're ready to go. Next is finding your episode info from your PC. Keep a well organised folder handy for storing all episodes. mp3 is the format that best suits podcasting. I'll show you how to edit audio in the editing audio portion of the course. Hit "upload file" and then select your podcast square artwork for the episode. You can use the same one over and over as it simply identifies the show, or you could create an individual one every episode. The choice is yours. Once the audio uploads to 100 percent, you'll be taken to the podcast screen and your episode will be there! I will also later show you how to submit your podcast to Stitcher, Tune in, and Spotify as well.
