Subject: Purecast Media Podcasting made easy

Podcasting made easy!

What is a Podcast?
Podcasts are the next generation of radio-on-demand broadcasts.
Podcasting offers a medium where anyone can make radio, instead of just listen to it.
What makes Podcasting different from any other media is the "on demand" availability. Combine the availability of files, the standardized packaging and the automated handling -- and you are offering your listeners something kind of like TiVo for audio!
Consider these facts:
1. 350 million people have iTunes (podcast listening and searching software) on their computers.
2. The newest version of Internet Explorer has a rss aggregator (podcast plug in) already built into it.
3. MSN and Real Player, two of computer audio’s industry leaders are offering podcast downloads.

All this means, right now, while you are reading this, millions of people are listening to podcasts!
How do I Podcast?
Purecast’s easy casting technology makes this process as simple as point and click. The results can be as professional as any national audio program currently on mainstream media. All you have to do is supply the topic and the talent! We do automatic rss/xml feed generation, give you a website for your show, and many other tools to help make podcasting easy.
Step 1. You record a show on your personal computer, mp3 recorder, or in your studio. It could be you just talking, or all glossy and produced.
Step 2. If your show wasn’t recorded in Mp3 format, convert it to mp3.
Step 3. Upload the file to your Purecast site, and you're done!
How do I promote my Podcast?
We provide you with a listing on our website and a thumbnail link to your Podcast website on our server. Purecast Media’s team of marketing specialists continually promotes our site but it’s up to you to promote your show. Here is two simple ways to create a web presence and grow your listener base:
1. Your Purecast Website
Upload content: 1st impressions can make or break a show! Tell your prospective listeners what your show is about, what you are about, basically why they should listen to YOU. Upload images: Give them a visual image of you and your show, a face to go with the voice. Too shy to show yourself? Get creative but give them an image to go with the sound! Keep your website current, and update it regularly! You can always draw new listeners with new content.
2. Podcast Directories
Directories are one of the many ways new and current listeners find podcasts. If you are interested in creating a listener base for your podcast, then you need to be included in the directories.

Podcast Alley is a website that podcasters and listeners visit to find podcasts to listen to, tips & tricks for making podcasts, and potentially become one of the Top 10 Podcasts! It’s simple to be included, just follow the steps below:
1. Go to the "Add a Podcast" page on www.podcastalley.com
2. Fill in the required information and click the Submit button
3. Your information is now sent to the site editor for inclusion in the directory...it is that simple!
Once you have listed with Podcast Alley, search for more directories and list yourself in as many as you can!
How do I make money Podcasting?
Traditionally the way to generate revenue through audio media was with audio sponsors (like radio commercials).This model is available to you but is limited to the how much time you can devote to your sponsor without loosing your listeners. Purecast Media has come up with a partnership program that far outweighs this time worn tradition. Podshares! Podshares is an innovative revenue generation tool that allows you to make money from other people’s podcasts as well as your own! There is no limit to how much you can make, other than your willingness to promote podcasting!
How it works is simple:
1. Get a click through sign up link at: (when you are signed up as a Purecast Media Podcaster you are automatically enrolled in Podsharing) http://purecastmedia.com/signup/podshares.php
2. Promote Podcasting on Purecast Over the web: (on any website including your Purecast site) with our click through sign up links. Face to face: friends, family, people in a coffee shop, whoever, wherever, direct them to your site(s) and click through sign up link. Traditional advertising: make flyers, take out an ad, use your imagination, any way to direct people to your site(s) and click through sign up link.
3. Get paid again and again and again! For every new Podcaster you bring to Purecast Media through your click through sign up links, you will be paid 1$ per month* FOR THE DURATION OF THEIR MEMBERSHIP!
* The first month is free to new members and holds no commission for the podsharer. Every month thereafter will be a commissioned month.
