So What is Podcasting…….

Before I go into exactly how a Power-PodCast will increase your profits, I would like to breifly explain for those who don’t know, exactly what is meant by the term podcast.

Podcasting is a method by which audio content is delivered directly to iPods or any other type of portable media player on demand. The majority of Podcasts are saved in a format known as MP3, which allows anyone with a computer to listen to it also.

The major benefit of this is the downloaded audio can then be listened to at the conveinience of the person downloading, another benefit is the fact that syncronising the content to their media player to take it away with them and listen to it whenever they want…….

How is a Podcast Made…….

A simple 2 step Process

1. Firstly you would need to record your Audio, this can be done outside of the computer environment or recorded directly within the computer itself, But at some stage you will need to get it into the computer for further processing or editing Etc.
2. This audio will then need to be saved as a file in the MP3 format

(I have produced some video tutorials on this, so if your interested in finding out more, just let me know, and i’ll make them available)

This MP3 audio file is then downloaded via a feed such as RSS directly onto your computer or MP3 player, but I would say that the main use today is in conjunction with MP3 Players.

Podcasting definitions………

Podcast or podcasting – A method by which any audio file is broadcast via the internet.
To podcast - Creation of your own podcast.
Podcasting – The process of broadcasting audio files via the internet.
Podcaster – The individual who broadcasts a podcast.
Podcastcing Software – Simply the software that will allow the listener to download the podcast automatically

So what has Podcasting got to do with Blogs ?

Well quite simply Blogs, or Podcasting on a blog, is simply one of the easiest ways to produce a podcast and have it distributed via a an RSS feed.

Firstly if your not already using Worpress as your prefered blogging software, then i would recomend you do so, as in my mind it is the best blogging platform there is, and an excellent plugin to provide this functionality is available to download for free.

By using a very easy to install wordpress plugin called Podpress, you will quickly be able to place any MP3 file on your blog pages.

Now apart from the fact that it’s a fully featured Automatic feed generator ( RSS2 – iTunes and ATOM and BitTorrent RSS) it supports an unlimeted number of media files. This allows you to produce podcasts with Automatic Media players for MP3, OGG, MP4, MOV, FLV, SWF, ASF, WMV, AVI, YouTube, and more, also with inline and Popup Window support.

Don’t worry if you don’t know what all those abrieviations above mean, just be assured that no matter what type of audio or video file you throw at PodPress, it will cope with it (forgot to mention that, video can also be broadcast via a podcast, which is also known as a vodcast) . So video is podcastable as well, is that a word ? this will of course have a Preview image of the video.

Podpress Will Make You Money………

Making a POWER-PODCAST

Firstly, If you want to see exactly how to make a POWER-PODCAST Leave me a message below, and I’ll put together a shorter step by Step demonstration on video, taken from the full video set…….. A podcast of course !

How many marketers use a podcast on their blogs…………. Well, I would say 99% of all internet marketers DON’T, and most have never attempted to do one.

To make money with a Power-podcast, is really quite easy once you know the procedure. First you need to Choose an affiliate clickbank item, software /ebook etc. or your own product item and write a  brief script that expalins why they need this product or what benefit they will get by purchasing from you, in other words offer a bribe of a free gift.

If they don’y buy they will have a look to see what its all about, that doesn’t cost anything……….. So don’t forget to grasp the opertunity and capture their name and email if nothing else.

Equipement needed 

You will need to use a microphone to record a short message, 1 minute Max……..  describing the product, and then bringing it to a conclusion with a call to action. For quality results the use of a quality mike is preferable, and a studio Microphone will have better results, see my Video -report on the differences of using a poor quality mike and a good studio mike.  

The next part is most important if you want your podacast to sound professional. You must add some suitable music as a backing track, Don’t skip this, and do pay for the royalties if required or use buyout music…….something that moves along with the pace of the script in question should be chosen.

I i know what you a probably thinking right now, your saying to yourself …….. I can’t or don’t want to record my Voice, I just dont like the way it sounds.

Well, we all feel the same about our own voices, So don’t worry, you’ll do just fine. At this point I think I will let you hear the very first ever Power-podcast I made, so you won’t feel so bad after all. 

Its promoting a video product called V2F Today, and as a bonus, I gave away a free teleprompter without the potential customer even having to buy or spend a single penny, just as an added incentive, bit like the Free reports and alike that we all give away in exchange for the opt-in details.

The call to action leaves you in no doubt what you have to do next ……….. Just click on the arrow below and have a listen.

Now how difficult was that ?……… Short sweet and to the point, and you couldn’t resist clicking on it, could you ?.

Now its not professionally produced or using professional voice-over talent, it was just me doing the best I could 18 months ago.

 so its not great I know, and I did fluff my lines a bit, but It was my first attempt and you will find it gets easier the more you do, just as I do. 

My biggest mistake was to try and do it all in one take, Not a good idea !. . . . . . . nowadays, I use audio editing tools to enhance the audio  quality and to make the whole process a lot simpler.

Now this little 40 Second Power-podcast  made all the difference from me making a few sales, to making a shed load of money. 2 hours work is all it took, around 10 minutes to put on the web, and the results……. an increase in sales of over 60%, ……not bad Ehh for a begginer.

So if you want to make some serious money from your Blogging add a Power-podcast today, and reap the benefits immediately.
