podcast in the iTunes
store has offered. Each
month the volume of
downloads increases
significantly, and as a
result…

3. Increased traffic to my blog
New subscribers to my list

4. More
importantly,
having a
podcast…

5. Gives my readers a way to consume my
content while they are on the fly…which I
suspect is most often during their commute.

6. I received some helpful tips from my
guests (I call them Golden Nuggets, and
a lot of very positive feedback from
listeners.

7. And, I
increased my

18. In addition to the hardware, there are
also a few software apps & services
that are a part of my production:
Levelator
used to make my and my caller’s voice the same volume in
case I screw it up while recording
ID3 Editor
to tag the .mp3 file with the right image and name,
etc…before uploading to my S3 account)
GarageBand (Mac)
minimal)
to handle post production editing (which is
Bluebrry Powerpress
WordPress plugin to ensure it’s uploaded to iTunes
as well as displayed on my blog
Amazon S3
Skype
to host the .mp3 files (do NOT try to use your web server)
for the calls themselves
Call Recorder for Skype as a second method of recording in case my
primary method fails (Speaking from experience, nothing is worse than asking a
guest to repeat 10 minutes of conversation because your recording failed)
