Hey there, it’s Dave Jackson, and in this episode I’m revising the challenge of naming your podcast—a topic I haven’t <a href="https://www.podcastconsultant.com/naming-your-podcast-can-triple-your-numbers/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">covered since 2019!</a> I share a simple test I use for show names: I tell people the name and ask what they think it’s about. If their answer matches my content, I know I’m on the right track.I talk about how it’s tempting to get cute with names (like “The Dugout” for a baseball show), but if you skip keywords like “baseball,” your show might not appear in searches. If you want a clever name, adding a clear tagline can help.I also cover practical tips like making sure your podcast name is easy to say and spell. I learned the hard way when I called a show “Podcast FastPass”—it was tricky to pronounce and easily confused. And be wary of names with tricky spellings or multiple possible formats (like “2” vs “two,” or double S’s).Don’t forget to check if your domain is available—I usually try for a .com, but if that’s taken, I recommend adding “show,” “radio,” or “cast” to get a unique domain. And of course, Google your proposed name to see if someone else is already using it.In this episode, I also mention two tools to help brainstorm names: one from PodPage, and a new one from Buzzsprout.Podpage Podcast Name Generator<a href="https://www.podpage.com/podcast-name-generator/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.podpage.com/podcast-name-generator/</a>Buzzsprout Podcast Name Generator<a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/podcast-name-generator" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.buzzsprout.com/podcast-name-generator</a>Need Help With Your Podcast?If you’re stuck on names or need help moving forward, come visit me at <a href="https://www.schoolofpodcasting.com/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=shownotes&utm_campaign=ypc223" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">schoolofpodcasting.com</a>!
