391. 11 Tips for Sharing URLs in Your Podcast


Listen Later

There comes a point in every podcast when it's necessary to say a URL. If for nothing else, at least your podcast's own home on the Internet. (And you should have a domain for your podcast!)

Please share this episode from your podcast app or https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/sharingurls

1. Speak as few URLs as possible (per episode)
  • Pretty Links Pro: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/go/prettylinkpro
  • 2. Defer to your chapters or episode notes
    • Check out Knick Knack News for a great example of actionable episode notes: https://knickknacknews.com/
    • Captivate: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/captivate
    • Buzzsprout: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/buzzsprout
    • Blubrry: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/blubrry
    • I'm pushing hard for Podcasting 2.0 to turn our current podcast chapters into “super chapters”: https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/podcast-namespace/discussions/469
    • 3. Never say "https://" or "www."
      4. Simplify your URLs
      • Remove the third-party brand name completely and make it a generic URL: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/stop-saying-brand-names-in-your-podcast-do-these-5-things-instead/
      • Patreon: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/patreon
      • 5. Make friendly URLs that make sense
        • Episode numbers didn't actually matter: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/are-podcast-episode-numbers-really-necessary-in-podcasting-show-notes-tap175/
        • 6. Say "slash" not "forward slash" or "backslash"
          7. Slow down and speak clearly
          • Podcast transcripts: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/how-to-use-podcast-transcripts/
          • 8. Clarify or avoid ambiguity
            9. Be careful with top-level domains that aren't .com
            • That Story Show: http://thatstoryshow.com/
            • 10. Beware case-sensitivity
              11. Always test your URLs before you share them
