Hacking the iTunes Podcast Rankings
3 quick things:
1. I'm curious if any of y'all know any tips or tricks to boost the rankings in the iTunes podcast directory?
Obviously the more downloads, 5 star ratings and feedback a show gets is a major determining factor but I'm curious if there's any tips/hacks that could also help boost the ratings of a show?
I was pretty stoked to see we landed at #8 in the Business / Marketing category (and even passed Seth Godin - that felt good) but I'm really curious how I can push it even farther?
Also, is there any tips on how to get displayed in the "New And Noteworthy" section? That would be sweet to hit as well.
I'm having a lot of fun doing the show and look forward to doing more, but really would like to start approaching it with some sort of strategy instead of just throwing shows into the wind.
Any feedback or knowledge would be appreciated.
2. What kind of things do you like about podcasts?
Do you like funny stuff? Strictly marketing and how to? Short interviews? In depth interviews? Do commercials bother you?
I'm keen to find out what people like and don't like about podcasts.
3. How do you listen to podcasts?
On your phone? Computer? In your car?
Thanks!!!
