Do you listen to the radio? No? Do you know that there are people who actually like to listen to someone talk over the Internet? There are people who like to record and post audio clips of themselves talking about a huge range of topics over the Internet. These topics range from lifestyle, technology to even religious topics. These audio files can either be pre-recorded clips, or streamed live just like a radio broadcast.
This phenomenon is know as podcasting. It is somewhat similar to blogging, except that instead of typing out the content, it is done through your voice. You can reap the same benefits of having a regular typed blog. It is just another approach of reaching visitors who prefer to hear a voice rather than read something.
To start podcasting, you would need some basic podcasting equipment like a headset, microphone and software that allows you to record audio. You can earn money via podcasting pretty much the same way you would with blogging. The revenue can be in the form of advertisements like Google AdSense, or may supplementing your income with other sourses of online revenue like affiliate marketing.
The shortest way to get started posting your first podcast is to create a website with which to post your podcasts on. The website will be something like a blog for posting podcast recordings. Next, record your content using audio recording software like Audacity if you don't already have one. Convert your recordings to small MP3 files. Next, upload your audio files along with descriptions about the podcasts to your website.
Add content as frequently to your website as possible so you build up a regular listener base who will keep coming back for more. The more visitors you have, the more revenue you can generate from your advertisements displayed via AdSense or whichever monetising effort you use. Pimp your site on social networking sites like Facebook, Twitter and forums.
