One of the most important steps to marketing your podcast is to register and promote your podcast within the main podcast directories. Registering in these podcast directories will almost instantly give you link backs to your podcast website. More importantly, the big search engines crawl these directories really quickly. I have seen podcast submissions that turn up in the search engines overnight.
There is a long list of directories below. Start at the top and work your way through the list. You will need the URL of your podcast and information like the title and description of your podcast. Make sure your description is as comprehensive as possible, because that’s how the search engines will find your podcast.
If anyone asks you to pay skip that directory. All the listings should be free.
I would start with these directories as I think they tend to be the top ranked sites in the search engines.
There is a long list of other directories you can submit to over at Podcast411 and you may also want to try PodPusher to get to an even longer list of directories.
