How to Create Perfect Show Notes
Engage your audience and boost your SEO with compelling show notes, made easy with AI.
1. Why Show Notes Matter
- **SEO & Discoverability:** Show notes are indexed by search engines. Well-written notes with relevant keywords can help new listeners discover your podcast.
- **Listener Engagement:** They provide a roadmap for your episode, allowing listeners to see key topics and decide to tune in.
- **Accessibility:** For listeners who are hearing-impaired or prefer reading, show notes provide a summary of your content.
2. What to Include in Your Show Notes
- **A Brief Summary:** Start with a 2-3 sentence paragraph that hooks the reader and summarizes the episode's main value.
- **Key Takeaways:** Use a bulleted list to highlight the most important points, quotes, or learnings.
- **Guest Information:** If you have a guest, include their name, bio, and links to their website or social media.
- **Resources & Links:** Link to any books, articles, tools, or other resources mentioned during the episode.
- **Call to Action (CTA):** Encourage listeners to subscribe, leave a review, or join your email list.
