Avoid these rookie errors to make your episodes sound top notch
There are more than 2 million different shows on Apple Podcasts, so it can be easy to feel daunted if you are making a podcast for the first time.
Freelance journalist Iris Pase provides some helpful tips to polish up your podcast, including the many mistakes to avoid when making a podcast, writing for IJNet.
If you are starting out, it is important to make sure your podcast has a focus and is well researched. But she also says that the show should not be too firmly planned out.
"While research is essential to the realisation of a good podcast, it's important for podcasters to be flexible and learn how to play with different formats," it reads.
