    Web Hosting For Podcasters - Voice Over Work Sep 15, 2016
    Show notes

    Send us feedback/questions via Text

    2:00 Switching hosting at Host Gator, there are so many hosting types. Does it matter? You can get by with shared hosting, if you have the budget go for the Wordpress hosting. Dave has most of his sites on Host Gator, and the School of Podcasting is on WPEngine but he is thinking of moving back to Host Gator.

    9:00 Should I start a Daily show?

    It is a large time issue, and get a bunch in the can. Make sure to do a bunch, make sure you have enough content and get some feedback from people. If you miss the day when you batch, you've lost a full week.

    15:30 Voice over Insights?

    For Dave when he narrated his book for musicians, it was much harder than you think it would be. Some people get paid by the number of sales, other get paid a flat fee.

    Mentioned http://www.ireadmyspam.com/

    Doing Voiceover is not as easy at it sounds

    1:20 I had a client pose an interesting question to me today: Is there a way to turn off comments/ratings for their podcast on iTunes/Google Play etc? I've never had anyone ask me to do that for their yet to launch show. Has anyone else had a similar experience? -Jennifer Navarrete

    It's great to want to get things right, but sometimes people over think things.

    FOMO. Fear of missing out.

    22:50 The people who are good make it look easy Valerie Geller. (Beyond Powerful Radio) Valerie's "Never Boring"

    Talent Multiplied by Effort is Jim's equation for success

    30:24 I think I did this once before when I changed services but I really don't remember how I did it. I currently use Spreaker to host. I'm planning to move my files this weekend to Archive and create an RSS feed through feedburner from a wordpress blog. My question is how do I get iTunes to change the RSS feed that they currently have to the new one so that I don't lose any subscribers? I know that Stitcher was very easy before because I just sent them an email and they did it with no problem but iTunes support is always hard to deal with. -Shawn Wray

    archive.org is not meant to be an active media host and feedburner stalls every now and then.

    33:50 Mike Dell from on 301 redirect is the best way to move your file.

    38:30 What do you define as "Podcast Success"
