The idea was that IMDb has become a highly trusted source that AI tools and search engines often reference when gathering information about people. If that's true, having an accurate IMDb profile and podcast listing could influence what people learn about you when they search your name. That immediately made me curious. So instead of speculating, I decided to run an experiment. In this episode, I share what it was actually like to submit one of my podcasts to IMDb, the surprisingly convoluted process I encountered, how AI helped me navigate it, and whether I believe the investment of time is actually worthwhile. More importantly, I explore the bigger questions: Does an IMDb listing actually increase your authority? Will it help people discover your podcast? Who is most likely to benefit from being listed? Is this a strategic move, or simply another shiny object? By the end of this conversation, I have a much clearer perspective on where an IMDb listing might fit into a podcaster's overall strategy and where it probably doesn't. If you've ever wondered whether your podcast belongs on IMDb, or you're curious how AI is changing the way people discover information about us online, I think you'll enjoy this episode.
