What is the Ideal Length For a Solo Podcast Episode?
How long should a podcast episode be?
If you've been looking for a question that has a myriad of answers, this is the one.
When you look at the number of podcasts actively producing content today, it's hard to pinpoint a specific timeframe because all of them are so different.
Some podcasts clock in around five minutes.
Others go 2-3 hours.
According to The Social Shepard website, the average podcast length is 20-40 minutes.
OK, so how do you make sense of this wide range of times and determine what works for your solo podcast?
It's not as complicated as it may seem.
In reality, there are just two key factors to focus on that will help you create content your ideal listeners want to consume without putting you in a position to break your back trying to keep up with a laborious production schedule.
In Episode 009 of Solo Podcasting Simplified, I'm sharing the ideal length for your solo podcast productions, as well as debunking some of the common misconceptions about podcast episode length you've most likely encountered.
