So, you're having trouble getting guests on your podcast? That can be frustrating. But have you taken a good look at your website lately? Because sometimes the issue isn’t your pitch—it’s your presentation. If your site looks like it hasn’t been updated since the MySpace days, it could be sending the wrong message. In this episode, we’re taking a closer look at podcast websites and how a few simple mistakes could be turning off potential guests before they even hear your show. Don’t worry—we’ll walk through how to clean things up so your site gives off the kind of professional vibe that makes people say, “Yes, I’d love to be on your show!”

Takeaways:

• If you're struggling to attract guests, your website might look like it's from 2005.
• First impressions matter, and if your podcast artwork is a mess, good luck attracting guests.
• Your website needs to be user-friendly because if it looks terrible, guests will run away.
• Using outdated hosting platforms can scream 'I'm not serious about my podcast', so step it up!
• Your audio quality matters; if it sounds like you're in a cave, no one will sign up.
• Make it easy for potential guests to follow your show; if they can't find you, they won't come.
• The "Set it and forget it" player hurts your podcast growth.
