PODCASTS - A new website design feature for marketing
Achieved by adding podcast playlist type functionality and assigning individual podcasts to that podcast playlist #newfeature On 27th March I also did my first ever You Tube live broadcast, interesting stuff and maybe a feature you could use for your business if you are you are any good at the equivalent of shopping channel promos. Mine is here on this blog, I've also added it to my podcast playlist.
MENU
You tube rolled out a new feature in early March 2023 allowing one to either convert an existing Playlist on your channel into a Podcast "playlist" or specifically add a video and badge it as a podcast. This could be a very useful tool and time will tell quite how much value it can add to your website design and development. The jury is currently out
EXAMPLES
Here is the Podcast playlist on my latest channel, mostly for Serendipity Girls Designer Dresses development and here is the the Podcast playlist on my main @KeefHWebDesigns You Tube channel
LIVE YOU TUBE BROADCASTS
SOUNDCLOUD & YOU TUBE PODCASTS
Where sensible I will convert Soundcloud tracks to Podcasts by adding an appropriate video element. You tube will not accept striaght audio podcasts (as yet) sadly
This podcast is my original SerendipityGDDs "track" or audiobook posted on Soundcloud and having product specific video / content overlayed onto it to create a You Tube acceptable podcast, they must have video attached. Let's see!
ISSUES
Currently I have been in a long battle with You Tube to determine why this functionality is not available on my first, and major You Tube channel @KeefHWebDesigns but is available on my latest channel @GirlsDesignerClothes all very puzzling. I will update this blog as the case 1-8913000033419 develops. It is key to me to get that functionality on my big channel as it now has over 1K videos
UPDATED 24 March 2023, after numerous complaints this issue is now resolved #thankheavens
Will it or won't it help, this new functionality, jury is currently out
