If you've always wanted to create a professional podcast but knew that you lacked somewhere, then the following article will help you immensely in getting you the right start ...
Don't Make the Podcast Too Long: The overall quality of your podcast can be affected by the length of it. It really is better to keep the length of the podcast to no more than 15 minutes unless you find you have something really important and amazing to tell your listeners. The best way to keep your listeners interested is to make your podcasts short and to the point. This helps to prevent you from going on and on about something without ever getting to the point. You could maybe stretch the podcast to 30 minutes if you really think you have much more to offer and are highly confident of its content. Your main goal should be keeping it short and concise.
Guest Interviews: most of the talking. This is the only way you're going to get your listeners to enjoy your podcast because if someone's listening to your interview then they want to see what the guest has to say in response to your questions. You don't want to ask close ended questions, however you do want to make your questions short and to the point. The topic of the podcast interview isn't as important as making your listeners happy by letting your guest handle the 'value-giving' segment. There will be times when you will want to give your two cents worth, or talk in between, but having a guest talk is part of the value you are giving, so make sure you don't detract from that.
Use Music: There is something special about a podcast that uses music intelligently to soften the whole experience. While music can be important, it doesn't mean that you should just download your favorite mp3 track to your podcast. However, by adding some light, soothing background music to your podcast can do wonders and make you look a lot more professional. In a way, when you use good music for your background, intro, etc, you polish up your podcast and make it sound better and give your readers an experience that they will remember, not just because of the quality of the content of the podcast, but also because of the way you presented it. By including these tips in your podcast, you will see an immediate difference in your listeners response which is something you can build on as time goes by.
