Adding images to your media host show notes? Yeah, that’s a recipe for disaster. I mean, picture this: you drop a brand new episode, and instead of a visually stunning experience, your notes look like a digital explosion.

Not cute, right? So, let’s get real – I’m here to help you understand why keeping those images on your website is the best strategy. Trust me, your podcast will thank you, and you won’t be left with formatting chaos that makes your show look like a toddler designed it. Seriously, stick to the basics and keep your audience engaged without the visual mess!

Takeaways:

  • Adding images directly into your media host can turn your show notes into a chaotic mess.
  • If you want your podcast to look good, stick to plain formatting in your notes.
  • Images should live on your website, where you can control the chaos they might cause elsewhere.
  • Using images in media hosts is like inviting a tornado to a picnic—totally unnecessary and a bit ridiculous.
  • Your podcast show notes should entice listeners to visit your website, not confuse them with weird formatting.
  • To boost your SEO, keep images on your blog and link them well with your episodes (or add them to your show notes once they hit your website).
