Is Your Podcast A Performance?

On today's episode, "Are Contests a Good Audience Builder?," we tackle a burning question: Are contests really the hidden gem for growing your podcast listenership, or are they just a magnet for spam and fake entries?

I'll look at some of the crucial podcasting tools out there, like the demise of Evernote, and the rise of Notejoy, and StreamYard, and we'll dissect what these platforms offer in terms of features and price points. Dave's going to fill you in on the intricate dance of dealing with explicit content in podcasts, especially for those of you hoping to go global—we've got a list of countries with specific content restrictions you'll want to hear about.

NOTE: The LEgal talk starts at 44:00

I put out a short yesterday that got 2000+ views where my videos get around 200 views (that is 6% of my 3000 subscribers). This did result in 2 people subscribing to my show (so .1% growth). Then I dug in a bit deeper and saw how far they watched and it was 23 out of 58 seconds (40%). That is interesting and hearbreaking.
