When someone searches for your podcast on Google, does your podcast website show up first? How much time and money do you spend on the design, upkeep, and maintenance of your podcast website? What I've found is that most podcasters fall into one of two camps regarding their podcast website: They are either completely overwhelmed, have virtually no website presence, and don't even know the first place to start, Or, the opposite is true, and they've actually spent TOO MUCH TIME developing their website and SEO. Whether you are in either of those camps or maybe you're somewhere in between, this episode of Grow The Show is going to help. That's because today we're joined by Brenden Mulligan, the creator of PodPage, which is an easy podcast website creation platform kinda like Squarespace, but easier, and designed specifically for podcasters. Today, Brenden is here to set the record straight on these questions, and more, that continue to plague podcasters to this day: What should my website look like? Is my SEO good enough? Should I pay someone to build a website?

Here at Grow The Show, we like to say that making a podcast is easy, but making a good podcast is really hard. However, there is a reason people who don't know better think that what we do is effortless. That's because the best podcasters make their shows sound smooth and natural. It sounds like two people having a really good, interesting, and funny conversation. Even though it sounds effortless, it actually takes a ton of work to make a podcast episode sound completely natural. Today, we’re joined by NPR producer and host Lauren Migaki who will teach us how to do that. If you want to produce a high-quality, natural-sounding podcast as efficiently as possible, join us for this week’s episode of Grow The Show. --------- JOIN GROW THE SHOW PRO See here how Grow The Show Pro will help you grow + monetize your podcast, at a simple low monthly price.
