hey what's up it's Pat again and welcome
to the sixth and final video of this
podcasting tutorial and seriously if
you've made it this far just a huge
congratulations to you I mean you've
done so much great work already and you
just have one final video left and this
videos gonna be so much easier than some
of the other videos I mean we've covered
a ton of material already from your
equipment and software to recording your
show exporting it as an mp3 file tagging
it hosting it on a media server setting
up your feed properly and publishing
your first podcast episode and in this
video we're finally going to submit that
podcast feed to all the important
directories out there so people will
listen to your show and you know just
video but really it's the start of your
podcasting journey so come on let's get
started so here we are back in the
dashboard of WordPress and we're here to
get our podcast feed once again that
we're going to submit to the podcasting
directories we'll just find it copy it
and then we're all set but before I get
into that you know if you've watched the
last video we've just published our
first podcast episode it's live on the
site and you can choose to now after
publishing your first episode submit
your podcast feed to these directories
like I'm about to show you but you may
want to think about waiting until you
have two or three episodes live on your
site before you submit your show and the
reason for that is because if you were
to submit just one podcast episode live
on your site you know one podcast in
your feed the directories are only going
to show one episode since that's all you
have and that's okay but when you
publish your second the second will show
up in the third and so on and so forth
but if you were to just start with one
which is actually what I did I actually
had a lot of people saying well Pat
where's the next episode you know I want
more and then I actually wasn't ready
for that you know also because it was an
introductory show it just basically
explained what the show was going to be
about how it was going to be formatted
and things like that I actually didn't
have that much useful relevant content
to download so I actually got a few
negative reviews from impatient
listeners who wanted more than just the
introductory episode again it's up to
you but
you may want to think about having two
or three episodes live on your site
before submitting your podcast feed to
give new listeners more than one episode
to listen to either way this is how
you're going to submit your podcast to
these directories and we're going to
start with iTunes so first like I said
we have to pull our feed and copy it and
to do that we can go back into here go
to the power press plug-in you can go to
feeds and here you're going to see that
podcast URL here which we validated in
the last video so I'm just going to
right click copy link address and good
we're all set we're going to submit what
we just copied to all the directories
out there first starting with iTunes so
the first thing to do is actually go
into iTunes you know open up iTunes in
your computer you're actually going to
need an account if you don't have one
already you're going to sign one up you
don't need to pay for anything although
you may need to submit your credit card
information and things like that most of
you probably already have an account
with iTunes and so to submit your
podcast actually go into the podcast
section you can just actually click on
podcasts and then over here on the right
hand side underneath the podcasts menu
you'll see the categories and you can
download the app and things like that on
the bottom here it says submit a podcast
that's what you want to click on so
submit a podcast and then here just asks
for our feed URL and conveniently we
just copied that so I'm going to paste
that there and click continue and now
it's asking me for my ID which you know
like I said you have to have click
continue and now it should come up with
a page that will show me a summary of
the information that's in my feet
already and as you can see it has the
artwork the name the author the short
description the long description the
category subcategory English the the
explicit is it yes or no it is clean and
so it has all the information we need
already because we set that up in the
last video with the powerpress plugin at
this point all you have to do is click
Submit if all this information is
correct if it's not correct you have to
go back into power press update all this
information change it to whatever you
want it to be and then click Submit and
yeah
in the future at you know if I were to
submit this now and it got approved and
then I want to change something all I'd
have to do is change these settings
again in power press and iTunes will
update baby it pretty much updates every
you know 12 to 24 hours and changes will
be made within the day or so but at this
point all you have to do is click Submit
and I'm not going to do this because
this is a hypothetical you know example
podcast but that's how you do it and so
pretty easy okay next we're actually
going to go to stitcher
so to submit your podcast to stitcher
which is an application on mobile phones
that has a user base of millions of
people who listen to podcasts you can
actually go to stitcher comm slash
content providers no-spaces dot php' so
as you can see there I'll zoom in on the
video for you so you can look at that
stitcher comm slash content providers
dot php' and that didn't work well
actually I may have copied this wrong
make sure the pianned providers is
uppercase and if that works that's kind
of crazy but anyways yeah okay so
stitcher comm slash content providers
PHP the P in the word providers is
capitalized I don't know why forces us
to do that but that's okay you can see
here this is where you can actually
submit your podcast so you want to give
them your contact information first name
last name address and all that stuff
your website address you know everything
with an asterisk is what's required and
down here you know there's actually
multiple spaces if you have multiple
shows but I'm going to close these right
now so it's easier to see show name you
can just include that which is a show
name that you know that you have already
this is where we would paste our RSS
feed right there show format podcast
genre you can pick the genre their
language jet a current number of
listeners it could be you know just be
honest about what it is you can put your
Twitter handle your Facebook page and
any keywords you can just copy those
keywords again from your powerpress
plugin if you want to do that you can
include this other information as well
because what you can do is you could
actually partner with stitcher and earn
a little bit of revenue by sharing that
app with other people and just click you
know we fill in this capture form and
agree to the terms and conditions and
click continue and then from there
you're ready to go again it takes a
little bit of
while two four stitcher to approve that
applica your podcast but you know if you
if you look up smart passive income in
stitcher on your mobile phone or iPad or
whatever you'll see it there and it
takes a little bit of while but that's
how you do it so again stitcher comm
slash content providers up PHP with the
pianned providers as the capital letter
okay next we're going to go to the
BlackBerry directory and that's easy
it's BlackBerry dot-com slash podcasts
and I think depending on where your
location is it'll redirect for your
specific language so as you can see here
it says us blackberry comm and a whole
bunch of other stuff all you have to do
is scroll down to where it says add your
podcasts today just click on that then
it's going to ask you to login and at
this point if you don't have a
BlackBerry account already you're going
to have to create an account and then
most of you probably don't have one so
just click on sign up here underneath
the login fields this Terms & Conditions
yes I accept does anyone ever read this
stuff I don't know I guess you have to
scroll all the way down to the bottom
and then click I accept continue then
it's going to ask you for sim for some
information here ok so I have all this
stuff filled up and I'm going to click
sign up okay at this point it's going to
ask you for once again your feed for
your podcast so I'm just going to paste
that there click continue and then
you'll see something similar to what we
saw in iTunes something that pulls up
your artwork all the stuff that we've
tagged already in using powerpress
podcast name things like that you know
you just want to make sure all these
settings are correct and then you're
going to click continue and then at this
point you can confirm that you are the
podcast producer or owner of that show
so on so forth and click Submit
I'm not gonna do it because again this
is an example podcast but that's how you
do it and at that point it would take a
few days I guess before you get a
notification from blackberry that your
podcast is in the BlackBerry directory
awesome ok the last important directory
I'm going to point you to is actually
Zune which is at Zun II dotnet and it's
weird I mean really the only way to
submit I mean that I believe there's
some software where you can submit your
podcast as stuff like this a lot of
people been saying that's
zoun is kind of dying out for podcasters
but if you just wanted one more location
and it's you know it's always good just
in case if you wanted one more location
to submit your podcast to and that is to
Zune this might sound weird but you're
going to send an email you're going to
send an email to Rob at Zune dot net
just in the subject line say please
submit my podcast and in the field say
hey Rob what's up please submit my
podcast here's the feed just copy that
feed once again and that information
should be up on Zune again I don't know
how many people actually use Zune to
listen to podcast but it can't hurt you
so again that email address
interestingly enough is robbed at Zune
dotnet and that's it so I get actually
just one more thing with that podcast
feed that we copied from from power
press that URL that we pasted into all
these directories you also want to share
that with your blog readers say hey if
you want to subscribe to the podcast
here's the manual feed link for you in
case you don't want to go to through the
iTunes link which you'll hopefully put
at the end of your show notes
you know after every show after you're
approved by iTunes okay the last thing I
want to do is I want to show you what it
would be like to publish a second
episode just to go through the workflow
really quick and show you how easy it is
now after you've set this all up after
you've submitted your show to these
directories it's really easy just to add
new episodes into these directories
because these directories automatically
read your feed so all you have to do is
publish another episode it's going to
put that episode in your feed and these
directories are going to update
automatically so just hypothetically
speaking I'm going to add a second
episode here by going to posts in
WordPress and click on add new you know
I would I would tag my show security
guard training HQ zero zero to episode
two title in here I would put my show
notes you know all the links and items
mentioned in the show subscription links
anything else that you feel would be
useful for your listeners and people who
come across your site I would make sure
to also include it in your podcast
category here so it easily organizes all
your podcasts into a category in your
blog and then to actually put that
episode
into this into this blog post like we
did before
you just have to include a media file
link to that mp3 file here and click
verify and that's how it gets enclosed
in this show so that when you click on
publish it updates to feed and updates
the directories in a few hours after
that so that's that's how you do it that
easy you don't have to worry about
anything else with power press unless
you wanted to change things around but
again it's really easy to do you know
just just create high quality stuff and
pump out the content and great stuff is
going to happen all right
