YouTube start been one of the top Content consumption for people as video content is on a boom now and the future of video is great
but,
Does that mean podcasts are not growing? hell no recently the last couple of years podcast industry is booming and more and more people are listening to the podcast as it adds value to their lives and the nature of both video and audio is different
you may ask how? ill share in a brief
video requires you to Focus your eyes and ears and Audio requires only ears that means you can do other things while listening to a podcast
When do people listen to podcasts?
people listen to a podcast while doing exercise while driving and while doing less attention heavy or lightweight work
Click here to know when people listening to podcasts
is it a valid point? yes hundred percent, think for a second how long do people utilize time in traveling/driving, doing exercise at home or gyms
It a lot, on average a person travels in a car, bus and other transport at least 2 – 4 hours per day and when it comes to exercise the minimum is 1 hour per day
Now calculate this for a month and a year, how much time do you use in these activities? honestly its a lot
and if you use this time to listen to podcasts to learn new things, it will impact your life massively in terms of knowledge, self-development and it will reflect on your revenue.
my take on podcasting vs youtube is podcasting + youtube
when you combine podcast and YouTube your audience and your podcast will grow better than having only 1 channel (podcast), but it may not be true in some scenario
podcasting vs YouTube, I recommend you to do a podcast and share it on YouTube and podcast platforms as you will have the maximum possibility to reach more people
