■ Popularity relates to the number of new downloads you’ve had in a given period
■ Relevance is due largely to your video’s description and keywords
■ Be sure to write an accurate description
■ You can also use keywords to address misspellings or additional search criteria.
Featured Content
■ The iTunes Store routinely features content
■ Quality of content is strongest consideration
■ Content must have attractive artwork (which does not include Apple items like logos or iPods)
■ Content that is released regularly
Top Lists
■ Location on page will vary site to site
■ These lists showcase the top videos in each category
■ Making these lists is based on new downloads
■ Once you are on a Top List, it is essential you maintain momentum
■ Staying on a Top List is very helpful, as it makes it much easier for browsers to discover your podcast
