HOWTO: Podcasting With Blogzerk

Blogzerk supports Podcasting. Podcasting is new, hip and you want to know how to do it with your Blogzerk blog. Here's a quick howto:

Create a new category for your podcasts. I've created a subcategory in the Examples category for the Blogzerk Blog and named it Podcasts (link).
Create a new post to your blog using the Blogware rich text editor in the Bloware Administration control panel. Use the article body to describe your podcast. Then, use the Attach Files(s) link to upload the mp3 file you want to use for this podcast post. Make sure your post is saved to the category you created above and save your post.

For posting your podcasts, that's all there is to it. You can use your podcast catcher (iTunes, iPodder, etc.) to subsribe to your podcast by giving it either the URL to the category with your podcasts or the RSS URL to the category.

You can get the RSS URL for the category by browsing to the category you created and posted your podcast to. You should see a link "Syndicate this Category" (or similar depending on your blog layout). Right-click on that link and copy the link address to your clipboard. In our example above, the link is http://blog.blogzerk.com/blog/Examples/Podcasts/index.xml

NOTE: If you don't have the category syndication link, you can get it by appending "/index.xml" to the URL of the category for your podcasts.
