Why Podcast SEO Still Matters

Podcast SEO helps you get discovered without relying on social media or ads. I’m breaking down simple tactics that help your show rank and attract more listeners.

SEO Tips Recap + Two New Ones:

• Turn Episodes Into Blog Posts
  Transcriptions make your content searchable. Google prioritizes written content—get it on your site.
• Title Smarter
  Use clear, keyword-rich titles. It’s the easiest way to boost clickthroughs and rankings.
• Do Keyword Research
  Use Google Trends, Ahrefs, or even YouTube autocomplete to find what people are searching for in your niche.
• Improve Your Show Notes
  Go beyond a few lines. Aim for 300+ words with key takeaways, resources, and keywords.
• Expand to YouTube
  Upload your audio with a static image or simple video. YouTube is the second-largest search engine.
• Be a Guest on Other Shows
  Earn backlinks and reach new listeners. This boosts SEO and credibility.
• Encourage Engagement
  Reviews, shares, and social interaction signal value to platforms and search engines.
