How to gain more listeners quickly with these SEO hacks
Ever wonder why some podcasts skyrocket in popularity? The answer might surprise you.
If you have been a long-time listener, you know that I love SEO and it’s something that I give big attention to especially for my podcast growth. In this crowded podcast space, you need to stand out. These SEO hacks are game-changer.
SEO for podcasting doesn’t need to be as difficult as one might think! So here are some tips that you can apply to increase your rankings.
Broad keywords vs Long-tail keywords:
Broad keywords usually have a high search volume. That makes it a competitive space to be in – and less likely to yield immediate results, especially for new podcasts. What can be more effective? Long-tail keywords. These keywords are more targeted to your topic. Think “nutrition” as the broad keyword vs “healthy eating tips for kids” for the long-tail keywords. The latter will draw in more listeners and increase your ranking in the search results.
Podcast titles as a killer first impression:
Now that you get the long-tail keywords, I suggest you combine them in your title with a broad keyword. That’s a sweet spot – providing your audience with exactly what they need and more. That would strategically boost the SEO of your podcast.
