Make Money Blogging - 10 Steps To Repurpose Your Existing Posts Into Podcasts





Profits From Podcasts


Multiply The Effectiveness And Profits
From Old Posts By Using The Distribution
Channels Available To Quality Podcasts


One of the main overall objectives is to diversify your income base and increase your authority status.

More profit channels should mean more financial stability.

Instead of relying solely on your blog with some social media marketing thrown in the mix, you should widen your distribution networks through podcasts and videos.

Today's post is a simple and direct strategy to take your old posts and convert them to podcasts in 10 steps.

The basic steps are meant for WordPress blogs, so you may have to modify them for other blogging platforms.

The basic strategy is to take one category of your posts and create a series of separate podcasts focused on that narrow topic.

  1. On your WordPress dashboard click "All Posts".

  2. From the top menu click "View all categories" and select the category you want to focus on for podcasts. Then, click the "Filter" link.

  3. Enter your primary keyword in the "Search Posts" box at the top right. The number of posts found will appear right below the search box.

  4. Review the content of each post with the "View" function. You want to make a list of the urls of each post that is suitable for repurposing to a podcast. Make the list hyperlinked.

    You may want to combine two or more posts into one podcast.

  5. Download the free software Audacity in order to record your podcast.

  6. Review my previous post Make Money Online – Start A Regular Schedule Of Podcasting

  7. Have a custom logo designed for your podcast/blog at Fiverr

  8. Review video 3, Exporting and Tagging Your MP3 File. Very important to get those procedures correct.

  9. Sign-up with Blog Talk Radio
    Once you log in you will see "Show Marketing Tips" such as Using social media to market your show (very good info).

    Blog Talk Radio is a very good place to practice your podcasting skills and everything you have learned from Pat Flynn's podcasting tutorial.

    You can only upload 3 audio files with the free version, but you should perfect your descriptions, tags, and use of the Blubrry PowerPress Plugin.

  10. Review your hyperlinked list of posts to establish the best logical and productive sequence for your podcasts.

    11. GET STARTED NOW!

Make Money Online - Start A Regular Schedule Of Podcasting





The Power Of Podcasts


You Must Expand Your Reach
Beyond Your Normal Blogging
Audience And Include The Large
Segment That Tunes Into Podcasts


In order to make money online it is best to reach as wide an audience as possible.

While it is routine to blog, tweet, and use other social media, podcasting remains a largely neglected area which can be extremely profitable.

I plead guilty to neglect in this area. I've intended to do some podcasts, but . . . .
(I've run out of excuses).

Anyway, I viewed and evaluated a 6-part video tutorial on podcasting by Internet marketing guru, Pat Flynn.

The link to the free tutorial is below, but first take note of some insights I provide on each individual video tutorial:

  • Video 1: Podcasting Equipment and Software
    Do not be discouraged by the equipment requirements listed. Free resources like Audacity can be a completely cost-free alternative.

    In addition, many newer laptops have sufficient installed microphones so no external microphone is needed for adequate podcasts.

  • Video 2: My Top 10 Recording Tips
    Very solid tips. Simple but valuable. Note especially the call to action tip.

  • Video 3: Exporting and Tagging Your MP3 File
    Technical info. Essential info but easy to understand.

    I did download the Levelator but it is not always necessary to use it.

  • Video 4: Web and Media Hosting
    I gained valuable info on web hosting of podcasts, but I do not agree at all with the dismissal of free resources like Blog Talk Radio

    If you save all your Mp3 files of your podcasts on your hard-drive, problems with free resources disappearing are minimal.

    Also, I recommended GoGVO for web hosting of your blog. (my affiliate link).

  • Video 5: Setting Up Your Feed and Publishing Your 1st Episode
    I did download the Blubrry PowerPress Podcasting plugin 5.0.4.

    The explanation of configuring this complex plugin is strikingly clear and easy to follow.

  • Video 6: Submitting Your Feed to iTunes and Other Directories
    Later this week I will publish a list of podcast directories for future reference.


    The fact that these directories will update with your latest podcasts through your feed is an extremely powerful feature to help you make money blogging.

6-Part Video Podcasting Tutorial

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
