Why You Should Use a Custom Bio Link for Your Podcast
In episode 17, I shared how to make it easy to follow your podcast with a single follow link. But you can go one step further by creating a custom bio link that allows you to promote certain episodes, newsletters, merchandise, and more.
Mentioned in this episode:
- Bio link for your podcast that brings in listeners | OnlyPod
- Bio Link: Launch Your Site in Seconds
- Link in bio tool: Everything you are, in one simple link | Linktree

Speaker:And now, this week's episode.
Speaker:When it comes to growing your podcast,
Speaker:making it easy to follow is one of the best ways to do that,
Speaker:which is why in episode 17 I shared some options that are available for that.
Speaker:However, that's just for the podcast.
Speaker:But another way is to use a custom bio link.
Speaker:So for your social media profiles, instead of just having one link that goes to your podcast website,
Speaker:or maybe Apple or Spotify,
Speaker:a custom bio link allows you to not only share your podcast,
Speaker:but certain episodes, a newsletter, and more.
Speaker:And depending on what bio link software you use,
Speaker:you can even embed episodes and videos.
Speaker:Again, making it super easy for listeners to check out your show before following it.
Speaker:And the good thing is, there's a few options out there,
Speaker:so you can choose the one that's best for you.
Speaker:There's Linktree, there's BioLink,
Speaker:there's a new one I'm checking out at the moment
Speaker:called PodBio, and others.
Speaker:And I'll be sure to leave links in the show notes
Speaker:for you to check them out.
Speaker:The great thing with custom bio links
Speaker:is you're not limited to just one podcast.
Speaker:If you've got multiple shows, you can add them all there,
Speaker:highlight popular episodes, and more.
Speaker:It's a great way to share as much detail as you can
Speaker:about your podcast with just one link.
Speaker:Until the next time, happy podcasting.
Speaker:(clapping)
Speaker:Thanks for listening.
Speaker:If you enjoy One Minute Podcast tips,
