There comes a point in every podcast when it's necessary to say a URL. If for nothing else, at least your podcast's own home on the Internet. (And you should have a domain for your podcast!)

Please share this episode from your podcast app or https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/sharingurls

1. Speak as few URLs as possible (per episode)

• Pretty Links Pro: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/go/prettylinkpro

2. Defer to your chapters or episode notes

• Check out Knick Knack News for a great example of actionable episode notes: https://knickknacknews.com/


• Captivate: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/captivate


• Buzzsprout: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/buzzsprout


• Blubrry: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/blubrry


• I'm pushing hard for Podcasting 2.0 to turn our current podcast chapters into “super chapters”: https://github.com/Podcastindex-org/podcast-namespace/discussions/469

3. Never say "https://" or "www."

4. Simplify your URLs

• Remove the third-party brand name completely and make it a generic URL: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/stop-saying-brand-names-in-your-podcast-do-these-5-things-instead/


• Patreon: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/patreon

5. Make friendly URLs that make sense

• Episode numbers didn't actually matter: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/are-podcast-episode-numbers-really-necessary-in-podcasting-show-notes-tap175/

6. Say "slash" not "forward slash" or "backslash"

7. Slow down and speak clearly

• Podcast transcripts: https://theaudacitytopodcast.com/how-to-use-podcast-transcripts/

8. Clarify or avoid ambiguity

9. Be careful with top-level domains that aren't .com

• That Story Show: http://thatstoryshow.com/

10. Beware case-sensitivity

11. Always test your URLs before you share them
