Get Your Podcast Featured on the

Podcast Maniac Blog

Submit a guest post with your podcast recommendations & I'll feature your show!

What is a Guest Post?

A guest post is when another writer (or in this case, a podcaster) submits an article or blog post that is published on a different writer/blogger’s website. It’s a great way to get exposure for you and your podcast!

Why Accept Other People’s Podcast Recs?

I want podcast fans to come to the Podcast Manic blog and find a variety of awesome podcasts to listen to.

My recommendations are based on shows I’ve actually listened to; I don’t just go to iTunes and pick the top-rated podcasts.

But this means that I can’t write about podcasts in certain niches, because I don’t really listen to—or know a lot about—those topics.

For example: I’m not into fantasy sports leagues or skilled in photography, so it’s hard for me to recommend “the best” podcasts in those categories. I need help from people who DO know the best podcasts on those topics.

How It Works:

You recommend 4-6 podcasts that are in the same genre/about the same topic as your podcast
You write a minimum of one paragraph per podcast recommendation, explaining why it’s a good show & what you like about it
If you submit a quality list of recommendations*, I’ll listen to your podcast and include my own recommendation of your show in the blog post, including a link to your show
The guest post featuring your recommendations will be published within 2-3 weeks of your submission

* A quality list of recommendations includes a minimum 3-5 sentences about each podcast, and doesn’t read like you copied and pasted the podcast description or other people’s reviews of the show. You don’t have to be a skilled writer to submit your list; I’ll edit it a little if necessary. Because I won’t be listening to the podcasts myself, I really need you to help sell them to my blog readers.

Some Tips Before You Submit Your Podcast Recommendations

Before you submit your list (using the form below), follow these tips:

1. Identify the #1 thing your podcast is about.

This will help focus the blog post & draw the ideal audience (and podcast listener!)

If you host/co-host a show that is mostly chit-chat and jokes, try to narrow down to the thing you talk about THE MOST. Or, if your show is regional (for example, true crime in the UK), try to recommend shows that cover the same region.

2. Come up with a potential article title. This will help you narrow down the type of shows you’re looking to recommend, and also help me and the reader know what to expect from your list of recommendations.

3. Make a list of podcasts that are similar to yours and draw the same type of audience. If you don’t have at least 4-6 really good podcasts that you’d recommend, go find some and listen to them. Then, pick the best ones.

4. Consider shows that have the same purpose/focus but have a different format, or a host of a different gender. Try to give podcast fans reading the article variety.
