The PodCraft Podcast: Series 3, Episode 15

In this episode we’re finally tackling the elephant in the room – social networking. It’s a rare person indeed who’s not involved, at all, in social media, and used well, it can be a huge driver of listeners for your podcast. In this episode I’m looking at one of the best social sharing plugins for WordPress, and talking all about how it can be used to promote your Podcast episodes. There are also a few extra bonus features in today’s tool, Shareaholic, that might be of use to you as well. Anyway, enough, waffle, let’s take a look.

Shareaholic

This tools is one of the easiest, most effective ways to grow your website traffic and effectively engage your audience. There are a few reasons why I like this plugin above and beyond the huge range of social sharing plugins out there. For a start, it’s nicely designed; it comes with some really nice icons and template designs and has little elements that draw attention to those icons.  For the rest, have a listen to the episode!
