Podcast your blog with Talkr

0 views

An interesting concept - write your blog posts and then make that content available in audio format for anyone to listen to your blog. This is what Talkr Partner programme. This is free as your posts will become the content that listeners sign up for. Talkr offers an earnings model where they pay partners a revenue share if one of their readers subscribes to Talkr's service. And if you opt in to have Talkr include ads in your blog post podcasts, there's a revenue share opportunity there, too. I've listened to a couple of MP3s from blogs already in the service, and I'm quite impressed by the quality of the voice I hear speaking the content of a blog post. A female voice on the ones I've listened to, an American accent, has pretty good natural voice intonation and rhythm. A bit of clipping here and there but almost conversational. That's a key element to the service - what you hear has to be easy on the ear: easy to understand and spoken in a way that doesn't give you a headache. So I've signed up for it. My interest is seeing how this all works, not the revenue opportunity, and whether it is an idea that could catch on. I've not opted in for ads. If you want to listen to any of my blog posts, here's the link: Reader Comments... Neville Hobson is the author of the popular Crayon. Visit Neville Hobson's blog:
