During the lockdown, podcasts boomed, and they will apparently surpass 1 billion in ad revenue this year.
Some game-changing announcements were made by Spotify, Apple, and others recently which suggest that the podcast battle is on, and you could stand to benefit.
The real question is – can podcasting finally make the money with podcasting they thought they could?
Let's double click on that.
This week, we're thrilled to to welcome the words of Danielle Desir, a blogger who has created and effectively leveraged her podcast in a way that has downright inspired us. We usually write the intro, but this time she's going to take it from here. We're chatting, fittingly, about podcasting tips for bloggers. So, if you've been playing with the idea of starting a podcast, then this one is for you.
Hey there, I’m Danielle Desir. I’m an author, affordable travel and personal finance blogger and podcaster. Over on The Thought Card, I empower financially savvy travelers to make more informed financial decisions – travel more, pay off debt, and build wealth.
I am also the founder of WOC (Women of Color) Podcasters – a blog, community and membership dedicated to amplifying the voices of women of color podcasters and audio creators around the world. With over 3,500 members on Facebook, we offer an inclusive space for women of color to connect, learn, and share podcasting resources.
Listening to blogging podcasts is one the most effective ways to grow and learn as a blogger.
One thing that people don't often think about when it comes to podcasts is that you can consume them passively. That means that you can be learning about things like starting a blog, photography tips for bloggers, or Pinterest while you're grocery shopping, at the gym, or out for a walk.
Since we feel it's our job to help bloggers grow wherever and whenever they can, we thought we'd do a rundown of the best podcasts for bloggers who are ambitious and looking to take things to the next level.
Oh, and while we're talking about blogger growth, if you aren't, be sure to sign up for our informative once weekly blogging newsletter which drops every Tuesday morning. It's designed to help bloggers like you stay in touch with what's going on in the blogging world, and offer actionable tips and advice to help you take blogging from a passion to a profession.
