Speaker:You're listening to One Minute Podcast Tips.
Speaker:I'm your host, Danny Brown.
Speaker:And each episode brings you snack-sized tips
Speaker:to be a better podcaster.
Speaker:And if you enjoy the show,
Speaker:you can now support with a one-off donation

Speaker:And now, this week's episode.
Speaker:Back in episode one,
Speaker:I talked about how many apps your podcast should be on.
Speaker:And at the time, I mentioned that you want to be on as
Speaker:many as possible to make it as easy as possible for your listeners to listen on
Speaker:their preferred podcast app, whether that's Apple Podcasts, Spotify etc. But from an
Speaker:indie podcaster point of view, one of the apps I do recommend getting on is Goodpods.
Speaker:There's both a mobile and web version and what I really like about Goodpods is
Speaker:yes it's an app that has all podcasts on there or all podcasts that are currently
Speaker:published to Apple, since Goodpods uses the Apple API, but what they also do is
Speaker:they're very much geared towards the indie podcaster. Instead of just having
Speaker:charts for all podcasts they have indie specific charts so you can toggle between
Speaker:all shows or just indie podcasts which really helps indie podcasts get
Speaker:discovered more. They've also got some great features like podcast Q&A as well
Speaker:as podcaster Q&A that really lets you tell people about you and your shows.
Speaker:They've also just released lists which is great for creating lists of your top
Speaker:five favorite podcasts in topic X or topic Y but the cool thing is your
Speaker:podcast goes at the top of this list. So if your podcast is a podcast about
Speaker:podcasts, for example like One Minute Podcast Tips, I can create a list like what I
Speaker:have done on Goodpods and also share five podcasts I listen to that talk
Speaker:about podcasting tips and insights and more. Again it's a really cool way to
Speaker:really share the podcast you're listening to, but also get your own
Speaker:podcast out there and in front of other listeners. You can check out Goodpods at
Speaker:Goodpods.com or download their app for iOS or Android. Until the next time,
Speaker:happy podcasting.
Speaker:If you're enjoying One Minute Podcast Tips, leave a review at oneminutepodcasttips.com/review
Speaker:and help others like you find the show too.
Speaker:Until the next time, happy podcasting.
