As always, I'm Eric your host and Clipped brings you the tips, resources, and people to help you crush content goals. I'm hitting you guys with a little sneak peek of a new tool I've got on my website. And this is a podcast name availability search. But before I introduce this new tool, gotta give a shout out to Riverside. They sponsor this podcast. That's riverside.fm.

[00:00:59] So my developer and I created a tool where you can type in the search bar a name that you want for your podcast. Let's say you haven't started one, and I'm talking to you guys.
[00:01:11] You content creators out there that have not yet started a podcast because coming up with a name is like the hardest thing. At least for me, it was. And anytime I typed in a name on like Apple, it would be taken.
[00:01:22] And so I'd have to come up with something, then search Apple, then search Spotify, and then search YouTube. Because you want that YouTube channel name to match the name of your podcast.
[00:01:31] And anyway, it was a pain in the ass flipping back and forth through all these platforms to check if the name I wanted for my podcast was available.
[00:01:40] So I created a tool, an all-in-one tool that does that for you. So if you go to thepodcasthaven.com right on the homepage, you're going to see this tool.
[00:01:50] You type in the name that you want, you hit search, and it'll tell you if it's available across Apple, Spotify, and YouTube.
[00:01:56] It'll also tell you if the URL is available because in a perfect world, you want the name of your channel, your YouTube channel, and the name of your podcast.
[00:02:07] You want that URL to be exact as well.
[00:02:10] So it'll tell you if that URL you want is taken. And if it is, it'll give you options to similar ones that are available.
[00:02:19] And so I built this tool to just make it easy to just like all-in-one powerhouse for searching for your podcast name to see if it's available.
[00:02:27] This tool is about 80% done. It's not fully finalized.
[00:02:31] But the reason I'm telling you guys about it because I want you to be some of the first to check it out.
[00:02:35] If you're listening to this and you haven't yet started a podcast and you also think it's a pain in the ass to flip back and forth between Apple, Spotify, and YouTube,
[00:02:45] go to thepodcasthaven.com right on the homepage. You're going to see our podcast name availability check and you can search.
[00:02:52] How this works is you get three free searches and then to continue using the tool, you have to subscribe to my email list.
[00:02:59] So it's basically providing you this search tool for free.
[00:03:02] If you keep using it as a way to return the favor to me, I will add you to my email list.
[00:03:09] So yeah, guys, I wanted you to check it out first.
[00:03:12] The reason being is that I want feedback.
[00:03:14] I want you to let me know what you think about how it works, how well it's searching, how the functionality is, everything.
[00:03:22] And then in the next probably month or so when this thing is fully developed and everything is exactly how I want it,
[00:03:29] I'll do a bigger launch and do some promo and let the world know that it is available.
[00:03:35] Also, in the future, I need to add Instagram search, TikTok search.
[00:03:40] Basically, I want this to be like all-in-one.
[00:03:42] So you can check for the name of your podcast and it'll also tell you like if that TikTok channel name is available, YouTube channel name, Instagram, and the URL.
[00:03:50] And so it's like an all-in-one.
[00:03:52] That's it for me today, guys.
[00:03:54] Would love for you to check that out.
[00:03:55] And I'm really seeking feedback.
[00:03:56] So if you do use the tool and you have some feedback, you can email me at eric, E-R-I-C, at thepodcasthaven.com.
[00:04:04] Let me know what you think and I will get back to you.
[00:04:07] Excited to start that conversation.
[00:04:10] Thank you for your support and for checking this out.
[00:04:13] And until next time, keep listening, keep engaging, keep creating.
