And now, this week's episode.
Speaker:
00:00:19
With the news that Apple Podcasts
Speaker:
00:00:25
will now support individual episode artwork
Speaker:
00:00:27
when iOS 17 is released in September,
Speaker:
00:00:30
a lot of podcasters are now asking
Speaker:
00:00:31
should they use individual episode artwork.
Speaker:
00:00:33
And much like anything, there's a pro and con to each.
Speaker:
00:00:36
The biggest pro is it helps your episodes
Speaker:
00:00:38
stand out on podcast apps,
Speaker:
00:00:39
which is great for something like movie podcasts,
Speaker:
00:00:41
for example, where you include the movie title,
Speaker:
00:00:43
artwork, and more.
Speaker:
00:00:45
Or if you have an interview podcast,
Speaker:
00:00:46
you can use an image of your guest.
Speaker:
00:00:48
However, the pro can also lead to the con.
Speaker:
00:00:50
And that con is it can dilute your podcast brand as well.
Speaker:
00:00:54
So if listeners are used to seeing your logo or artwork
Speaker:
00:00:56
for your overall podcast and you start to use individual episode artwork,
Speaker:
00:01:00
then it can be confusing for them.
Speaker:
00:01:02
Unless your branding is really strong and it still comes through on the episode artwork when using that.
Speaker:
00:01:06
So it's one of these questions that there's no real right or wrong answer,
Speaker:
00:01:10
and if you think it's going to affect your podcast branding.
Speaker:
00:01:13
Until the next time, happy podcasting.
