February 15, 2023366. Should Your Photo Be in Your Podcast Cover Art?
Podcast Cover Art is usually the first and most prominent thing people will see about your podcast—often even before the title itself! Visual space is limited (usually only half an inch or 1.25 cm square—or about the size of your thumbnail). So should you include a photo of yourself in your cover art? Here are some questions to help you decide!
Please share this episode from your podcast app or https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/photoincoverart
