"Original content is always more valuable than the medium by which it is delivered." Rick Butts

• A simple blog is all you need to publish and get your show ranked in the search engines.
• Hundreds of social sites are literally starving for original rich media (audio - video) content.
• Each show becomes a keyword bonanza for SEO and Web 2.0 marketing.
• You can get your shows transcribed into powerful text content.
• All content can be split up into smaller segments and leveraged across the web for tons of inbound, profitable links.
• Content (shows) can be themed and re purposed into ebooks, training materials, courses, or optin-candy for capturing email addresses - as well as for AdSense and other contextual publishing profits.
• Affiliate opportunities are fantastic and can be spanned across the spoken word, the text, the links on the publishing page, links on your site and on other sites like Squidoo.
• Targeting an audience creates strong affinity and loyal listeners who come back for the latest new material.
• Inviting authors, experts, and people of interest to your audience is instant expertise.
• You can leverage your guests email lists, visibility, and sell their products, for an out of this world "win-win"
