RawVoice Releases Revolutionary Update to WordPress Podcast Plugin

Podcast leader introduces advancement that makes Podcast publishing as easy as 1, 2, 3.

Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) May 28, 2009 -- Social media company RawVoice Inc. (http://www.rawvoice.com), a leader in podcast advertising and podcasting tools, has introduced a revolutionary update to PowerPress, the Podcast Plugin for WordPress. The PowerPress Plugin now integrates with the RawVoice Podcast Hosting Services Platform at Blubrry.com by adding a podcast statistics summary to your WordPress dashboard. The update also adds the ability to select media hosted by Blubrry within WordPress, simplifying the publishing process.

"New podcasters have the challenge of overcoming the technical requirements of publishing a podcast," explains Todd Cochrane, RawVoice CEO. "While the Plugin is a powerful standalone, this important new integration with our hosting and statistic service makes podcast publishing easy."

PowerPress eliminates technical hurdles by ensuring that the podcaster's media, website and RSS feeds are all optimized for consumption by listeners. This allows the podcaster to focus on creating media.

Podcasters who host their media through the RawVoice publishing services now enjoy a simple three-step publishing process:

•    Podcasters upload their media using the Media Uploader.

•    In their WordPress blog, they select the uploaded file in the 'Add Post' menu.

•    Then they hit 'Publish.'

The PowerPress Podcast Plugin can be installed in WordPress in minutes. Once installed and configured it adds needed features to WordPress to successfully publish your audio and video podcast.

"The Plugin has the best iTunes support in the space, optimizing the feed to be 100 percent iTunes and Zune Marketplace compliant," Cochrane stresses. "While this version supports many new features, such as automated ID3 tag writing, category feeds and multi-language support, we have ensured that those who do not use our services are not impacted in any way by the new integrated features."

The PowerPress Podcast Plugin is free and available here (http://www.blubrry.com/powerpress).

RawVoice Inc. is the parent company of the podcasting and videocasting social media websites at Blubrry.com (http://www.blubrry.com), Techpodcasts.com (http://www.techpodcasts.com), PodcasterNews (http://www.podcasternews.com). The company was founded in 2005 by Cochrane, podcasting pioneer and author of the book Podcasting: Do It Yourself Guide.
