This is a tricky one. While AI can write in dozens of languages, Google NotebookLM is only English, but AuthorVoices.ai offers many more. Since we also run AuthorVoices.ai, we can work with you on finding a narrator for your podcast in a language that is not currently available at https://www.authorvoices.ai/meet-our-narrators.html . So let us know. We have the most popular languages so far.
As of our November 2024, the posts can be a maximum of about 1000 words each.
You don't have to enter anything here since this is what you will be customizing for each post, when you make the post. This is useful if all of your posts have the same general instructions and you don't want to retype the instructions each time you post. For example, you might enter something like:
When writing about DIY projects, please remind the readers that if they are not confident with what they are doing, they should seek the advice of a professional. The topic of the post is:
Notice a couple of things:
By default, images are created each time you make a post. You can override this feature by switching this option to the off position. But the audio is NOT created by default. For this, you need to switch the auto create audio button to the on position. Also, you need to be using AuthorVoices.ai narration for this option.
Better then most human narrators. Think of having the most professional voices doing your narration - not just any voice. Most people think they have a great voice for podcasting but the reality is, they don't. AI uses the best of the best.
Through the use of AI, we provide many suggested keywords. We let you make the final choice, then those keywords are used in the setup of your podcast and the creation of all the posts, for the maximum SEO advantage.
If you use Google NotebookLM, it is currently just English. If you use AuthorVoices.ai, we currently have English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, and Polish. This can be sampled at https://www.authorvoices.ai/meet-our-narrators.html . If there is another language you want, let us know. We can quickly add that language!
You can certainly upload your own images - along with content and your own narration.
No problem. You can manually edit the text with ease. And if using AuthorVoices.ai narration, you can also easily manually edit the narration. Google NotebookLM narration is fixed and the only way to edit that is download it and edit in a 3rd party editor like Audacity, then upload the edited file.
If you are managing your posts yourself, you can certainly regenerate the post - best to do so after revising the instructions to AI about the post so you get a different result. If we manage your posts and post daily, you can request a redo up to once a week, or if we post weekly for you, you can request a redo once per month.
We often use the terms interchangeably here. A "blog" is more accurately just the written part of the post, and when you have the audio part it becomes a "podcast". And the "podcast" element is solidified when you list your RSS feed with the aggregators in the last step. But for our purposes, the blog and podcast are one in the same.
Yes. You might want to skip this part because AI does a pretty good job promoting your product or service in each post. If it does, then a blog footer might be an overkill and annoy readers. However, the blog footer is NOT narrated and not included in the podcast, so it might not matter.
If the search engines already have added your posts, you may lose the traffic you are currently getting and this can hurt your rankings. However, if you are just starting your podcast, then no harm will be done.
Yes and no. "Yes" in that what we have there is all we currently have. "No" in that if you have a special request, we will do our best to accommodate you and add the voice, providing it would be a good addition to our current narrator offering.
There are no hard limits, however AI typically generates a 500-1000 word post and the podcast could be from 5 to 15 minutes, depending on which AI does the narration.
If you have a paid account, you can post up to 30 posts, 30 days in advance.
Yes. Each post has a stats link on the post with some basic analytical data.
Currently no, but we can fast-track this feature if requested. Right now, multiple users would have to share the same login.
No. It is up to the blog creators to work out these kinds of deals with sponsors.
Here are some reasons:
Yes. Use what is called "domain forwarding" through your registrar, and point the domain to your blog's URL ending in "index.html".
Write like you are talking to a friend or explaining something to someone. Be specific and use formal or informal language - it doesn't matter. You can use stream of consciousness, list form, words... whatever.
They keywords are important because they are the primary reason your blog/podcast will found by your target market. You want keywords that align with your product or service. Think of it this way... what do you think people are typing into Google to find your product or service? These are your keywords.
You need to go back a screen to the "Get Started" screen, and make a change to your AI instructions about your podcast. Even if you just add a space at the end. Then, click the next and save button and AI will generate you some new keywords.
The fewer you choose, the more focus on those keywords. The more you choose, the more chances you have to be found even if by fewer people. So there is no right answer, but somewhere within the range of three to eight might be best.
This is used in the next screen when you ask AI to come up with 1800 article ideas. So make sure you have chosen what you think is the best keyword, because quite literally, all of your articles/posts will be a derivative of this keyword.
Yes. Most of them are. More accurately, a "keyword" is a "key phrase." But they should typically not be longer than 4-5 words.
Yes, you do. You can open a free account on these platforms.
Yes. We will update our page with new listing opportunities, but there are hundreds of them out there, so add it anywhere you like.
No. You need at least one published episode to make your rss feed valid.
You are limited to one post per day, per podcast. However, if you have one of the paid options, you can schedule your posts therefore essentially posting 30 times in one day - but each post will be released, one per day.
If you are paying monthly, you can cancel any time and you will no longer be billed any further from that point. The same goes with yearly subscriptions. Your remaining period you already paid for will continue - there are no refunds for partial periods.
As long as you still have a plan (even the free one) your content will continue to be hosted. Only if you ask to have your account deleted will we remove all of your content.
Yes. If you upgrade, we will credit you for the amount you paid for the lower plan prior to that period. If you downgrade, no credits will be given, so it is best to wait until the end of the period to downgrade.
The free plan includes the AI generation and text blogging, just not the podcasting. This, along with looking at our example podcasts on the homepage, should give you enough information to make a decision about upgrading. However, you can upgrade for just one month if you like which is only $29 for the least expensive paid plan. Not a big risk.
Personal support from the creator of the platform... it doesn't get much better than that. However, as being just one person, this support is not available 24 hours a day... he needs to sleep.
Of course. AI does all the heavy lifting. But even if this is too confusing, we offer a full service option where do everything.
