Tips for Effective Podcast Cover Art Design

There are a few things you need to keep in mind when you make podcast cover art and/or a podcast logo to represent your show. Because so many people now have a podcast, it really comes down to cover art that stands out and gets noticed among the crowd. Be sure to stick to your individual style and message. 

Of course, you are going to want to give it some interest and make it pop. But overly crowded or cluttered cover art is only going to fall flat and turn users off. Stick to a color or two and don't go overboard on fonts. You could say users are judging a book by its cover, or a podcast by its art as the case may be. And remember, you don't need a professional designer to get stunning podcast artwork. 

This may seem a simple rule of thumb, but when designing podcast cover art, many people tend to overlook this aspect of it. The audience is obviously going to want to get a pretty good understanding of what your show offers just by looking at the cover art. And then your podcast really needs to deliver!

Keep the podcast art message concise and to the point. By the same token, make sure to use a font that can be easily read and differentiated from the cover art background. Also, keep in mind that different fonts will show up differently from one browser to the next. So you are going to want to make sure you understand how your chosen font looks on more than just one browser.

Certainly, businesses will often do a podcast within their website to spotlight their brand, but if it is only about trying to sell people and this is consequently reflected in the podcast artwork, this will likely turn any potential audience off. Spotlighting your logo is a good idea; you might even pull elements from your website and integrate those into your podcast cover art. But don’t make the art all about pushing a product or service. Stick to more understated cover art elements.
