GSP #9: A Major Milestone: Deciding where to host our show.

Getcha Some Productions Podcast Episode 9

https://reverb.grsm.io/GetchaSome

A podcast covering all things related to music production: from the first note to the last fan and everything in between.

Not your typical “how-to” podcast: For a new listeners, each episode is a live business meeting. We are figuring out how to build a music production company as we go and listeners can come along for the ride.

Every podcast is a business meeting, every business meeting is a podcast. This podcast is (always) candid.

In this episode we discuss:

Once again, you are listening in to a live business meeting between Keith and Dan as they build a media Empire. This is the early stages of the burgeoning media Empire.

Our episode 9 corresponds with day 6 of Colin Gray’s thepodcasthost.com free program on building a podcast podcast.

The free program is called start pod And day 6 is all about where you should put your podcast on the web.

We decide to build our own website to host a podcast.

Considerations when choosing where the host your website or cost, features, scalability, whether you can host commerce on it, etc.

We spend a lot of time talking about the pros and cons of certain website providers and the different plans offered by them.

Colin recommends Bluehost to host your website but I already have experience with Squarespace so I want to see a comparison.

We decide to hire Nikki Payne the life PA to build us a spreadsheet comparing the two providers that we narrowed it down to: bluehost and square space.

One important point is that making the website is pretty much the first tangible thing that we’ve done so far besides making these recordings. So the act of making a website actually makes this whole thing become real in a sense.

It is, I suppose, a kind of a small decision – where you’re going to host your website – but it is an important Business decision and it’s pretty much the first major milestone business decision that we’ve made so far.

It’s a concrete step in having this business become real, in that it’s out in the world instead of just being on my personal device where it could go away at any moment and no one will ever know.

Then Dan said, “catch you on the flippity flop.”

When we talk about Futurama, a subject close to both of our hearts

Also, Malcolm in the middle is one of the greatest shows of all time.

Bryan Cranston is a genius

Dan was the guy who got me into Futurama in the first place.

Thanks, as always to Colin Gray of the The Podcast Host, for his instruction
