Industry Best Practices and Standards:

• Implement tools such as Anchor, Tinderspace, or Otter.ai for structuring episodes.
• Follow SEO best practices for podcast titles, descriptions, and URLs.
• Ensure accessibility standards (e.g., proper contrast ratios, alt texts for audio descriptions).
• Optimize for performance with SSL certificates, compression, and scalable infrastructure.

Quality Expectations:

• Content must be original, well-researched, and tailored to the target audience.
• Episode structures should include a clear introduction, engaging intro music, and a compelling outro.
• Use of visuals (e.g., slides, images, or videos) should enhance storytelling without overwhelming the audio.
• Ensure consistency in format across episodes to build audience trust and preference.

Technical Considerations:

• Server-side rendering (SSR) for SEO-friendly URLs.
