The Podcasters Studio : TPS Ep. 067 - Using Affiliates with Your Podcast to Make Money

Wed, 2 Jan 2013 19:52:28 +0000

This was great content! What is the exact affiliate manager plugin that Daniel recommends? I'm sick of AdRotate, and there are "Ad Manager" and the more popular "Simple Ads Manager."

Many affiliates will let you create multiple tracking IDs. So if you want to use the same affiliate on your five separate sites, you could either use a the same link among them all and never know which site is converting better; or you could create an ID for each site so you could see each site's performance. For example, I use separate tracking IDs with my Amazon.com affiliate links. I can see that two of my five sites are generating profit, the other three don't sell anything.

Cool to see you on Waves of Tech again! (BTW, don't they have such nice podcast cover art? ;) )

The Podcasters Studio : Rode NTG-1 Microphone Demo and Review

Thu, 12 Jul 2012 16:15:50 +0000

Awesome review! The one thing I wish it had is some sample of ambient noise, like wind or a crowd. In your editing, how would you compare the sound to the Heil PR40? This sounded quite close, so I wonder if it could be a versatile alternative for studio recording. Then again, the immobility might be a killer, if speakers have to stay in a tiny cone to be recorded.

Actually, the Bible always refers to angels with masculine names and terms.

Thanks for the comment, Sarah! We're looking for to PodCamp Cincinnati 2 later this year. We would love to live-stream the sessions, but administration and running this would be very difficult. We're keeping it on our idea list.

I'd love to keep listening to Adventures in Odyssey, but it fell by the wayside for me several years ago. I'm way behind. I used to have wholesale accounts with multiple distributers and would sell AiO in my church. I made enough money to buy all of the cassette albums for myself, up until around 2001, I think.

Yup! I remember those days, and those programs. Lode Runner was my favorite back then. I also use to make the DOS-powered menus for startup on our PC. Remember King's Quest on a PCjr?

I've seen mixed opinions on revealing the date. Some themes (or just peoples' choices) hide the posted date. This is terribly annoying when the author is not a good writer and they use relative terms and never reveal an absolute date. Some people feel that a post with a date will seem outdated after a while. I personally disagree. Especially with technical information, I want to know when the post was written so I can figure out whether it's still relevant. I think it's more important to have the date on the page than in the URL. And adding a date won't allow WordPress to use the exact same slug, such as: 2011/top-ten-apps 2012/top-ten-apps Instead, WordPress would turn it into: 2011/top-ten-apps 2012/top-ten-apps-2

Having the year can be nice, but it's certainly no longer required with WordPress 3.3. There used to be a performance penalty to /%postname%/, but they fixed that in WordPress 3.3.

You're welcome! I'm glad you're learning. Are you on Windows, OS X, or Linux? If you have OS X, then you probably already have iMovie.

Wow, that program is $50. How does it compare to these other apps? Are you running it on OS X or Windows?

Great comment, Tim! Indeed, Audacity is great for starting out. Actually, I think that most podcasts don't need anything more than Audacity since podcasts are fairly basic audio. I sometimes think about upgrading to Adobe Audition, but then I can never answer my own question of "Why?"
