DISCO DRIVES DISCOVERY
At Headliner, our mission is to help podcasts get discovered. Disco Free is the latest podcast discovery tool that helps podcasters convert their blog traffic into podcast listens.
Disco Free by Headliner is a dynamic, podcast discovery widget for your website or blog. It is the perfect tool for growing your podcast audience and now – you can seamlessly integrate Disco into your blog using our WordPress Plugin.
How Disco Works.
Disco serves your readers contextually relevant podcasts based on what they are reading.
Disco’s AI uses your podcast transcript to match podcast clips with relevant articles on your site. From there, Disco renders the perfect podcast previews and automatically inserts them into your blog’s designated Disco widget space.
The plugin functions by adding javascript to your WordPress site via a third- party site. The javascript enables Headliner’s servers to scan your podcasts’ transcripts and create Disco’s widget recommendations.
The Disco Free widget provides readers with simple podcast previews that dynamically repopulate on page refresh. During the hover state, Disco Free begins to play readers clips of the highlighted podcast. Once a reader clicks “continue listening”, the plugin will automatically redirect them to Play by Headliner and play the entire episode. Disco even picks up where readers left off for a seamless listening experience!
Plugin Perks
With the Disco Free WordPress Plugin, you can accomplish a lot more AND get 4x more listens!
- Automatic – After the initial setup, you’re done! Disco will get to work and automatically add podcast recommendations to the end of each blog post.
- Generative – Since Disco is connected to your RSS feed, your latest uploads will always render. Disco’s algorithm will recognize and push new uploads for you. So, no need to go back and manually add new episodes!
- Dynamic – Disco supports multiple visuals and provides dynamic widgets optimized for conversions. This means with each page refresh, Disco will update its look so your readers won’t see the same Disco widget every time!
- Data-Driven – Speaking of conversions… with the Disco Free WordPress Plugin, you get FREE access to the Headliner Dashboard. In the Dashboard, you’ll be able to track your Disco widget engagement in real-time and watch the listens roll in. No other embed gives you this level of granularity!
- Optimized – Since Disco is optimized for conversions, the AI provides compelling clips that capture your readers’ attention to insight listens. Disco won’t just start at 0:00.
- Engaging – Disco works using 100% ad-free, internal content and will not compete with existing ad placements. This supports an engaging, fully immersive experience for your audience while maximizing their time spent with your message – not an advertisement!
Set up process
The Disco Free plugin requires you to complete the initial setup through the Headliner Dashboard. To do this, simply visit the Headliner Dashboard, select your widget style, and input your RSS feed and website URL.
Once that is done, we will provide you with a Widget ID code – this process normally takes about 1 hour. Be sure to copy your code, follow the WordPress plugin installation process, and watch the listens role in. It’s really that easy!
We have provided a step-by-step installation guide and walkthrough video for your convenience in the Headliner Learn Center.
