Titles are the first thing potential listeners see—and they often decide if someone clicks. Whether you’re naming your whole show or just an episode, aim for clarity, curiosity, and relevance.
Podcast titles: These should reflect your content and target audience. Go for something memorable and searchable. Avoid overly clever names that confuse or mislead.
Episode names: Think like a headline. Good titles explain the value and spark interest. Instead of "Episode 10: Interview with Jane," try "How Jane Doubled Her Business with a Podcast."
Tips that work:
- Use numbers or lists ("5 Mistakes New Podcasters Make")
- Ask questions ("Is Your Podcast Losing You Clients?")
- Add keywords your audience might search for
Avoid vague or overloaded titles. Keep it short, specific, and useful. A great title gets the right people to click and listen.
