Posted by faq on December 13th, 2007
Podcasters wanting to simplify the Facebook publishing process can relax. Podbean.com offers a free and easy way to publish and manage all of your podcast projects. To get started, just log in and choose “Manage” from your Dashboard. You’ll see a sub-tab called “Embeddable Player.
Click the link that says “Click here to share on Facebook” and you’ll see your Facebook login. Sign in to your Facebook account and you’ll see the following Podcast Player set up screen:
You can choose a black or white skin and preview it by clicking “Get Player”. Once you’ve chosen your skin, click “Show this player in Profile” at the bottom of the set up screen.
You should then see your Facebook profile page with your Podcast Player embedded. It may take a few hours for your podcast to show up so don’t worry if you can’t see it right away. The Podbean podcast player also comes with an “Embed Once, Use Forever” feature that means you don’t have to install new players to display new podcasts. Instead, your embedded player will automatically update when you add or change your podcast selections.
Want to publicize your podcasts?
Click the “Share” button at top right of the player and you can share your new Podbean podcast to your Facebook friends right away.
Just plug in your friend’s name or email address and viola! You’ve just publicized your podcast! There’s also a link to post your player on a friend’s wall. Your Podcast Player also comes with a “subscribe” feature so your friends and family will always know the minute you add a new podcast episode.
