Anyone considering offering audio versions of their blog posts?
Hey,
With so many people now wanting to listen to content, I'm wondering if people in this group have tried offering audio versions of their blog posts?
If you have, what's your experience with this been like?
If not, then why not?
Yes, you should absolutely do this.
I am blogging now for a year on my own blog: Chatimize. It is a blog where I learn people how to use chatbots in their marketing.
When I began with blogging, one of my readers reached out to me and said "Your blogs are so valuable, but I don't have the time to read them. But I want to listen to them on my commute."
So, that's when I put https://websitevoice.com/ on my website.
Here you can see it in practice: https://chatimize.com/whatsapp-chatbots/
Just click on the big blue play button on the left and the sound will immediately start. This is automatically generated for every blog post, you only have to install a script.
Hope this is valuable to you, enjoy your day!
Hey, it's great to hear that your readers wanted a voice version of your content.
Do you have any analytics to show that the voice versions are getting plays?
Last month, there were 33 plays. My blog gets around 2K users every month.
That's interesting, so most people don't listen. I wonder though, how many people read an article all the way through compared to how many listen all the way through.
I do this from time to time for my blog. I put the recordings up on Spotify, included in the main channel for the podcast. There's always one person who would prefer to listen than to read! Shows a lot of heart to care for that one person out of hundreds or thousands.
I like that. Showing your readers you care about them and offering more is a great way to build an audience.
