Many people ask me about the different resources I use, so I decided to have all of them in one place here.
Disclosure: Some of the links below are affiliate links. It means that I will earn a commission if you decide to make a purchase at no additional cost to you. But that is not the only reason. I could have made a long list of different things I don’t believe in for commission’s sake. But I featured here only those products and services, which I truly believe are helpful and useful.
Podcasting
- Podcast Incubator – I knew nothing about podcasting 3 weeks before my podcast launch so I had to learn everything from scratch. I know that there are many famous brands to go to but where I personally went to and got everything I needed was at the Podcast Incubator. There are step-by-step videos, I have access to Meron Bareket, who ensures over the shoulder support and the community is absolutely amazing. For me personally relationships are important and Podcast Incubator is where I found high quality relationships with the mentor and other members. I not only go there when I need answers to questions, or help with technical issues, but also when I seek encouragement, inspiration and moral support. I am absolutely convinced that Podcast Incubator is a unique place, where you get answers to all your tailored needs.
- Audio-Technica ATR 2100 microphone – good quality and affordable microphone, which is ideal for recording at home
- Call Recorder for Skype – this is what I use to record my interviews for the podcast
- Libsyn – this is the hosting service I use for the Write 2B Read podcast. Use the coupon code “inspire” while registering and you will get 2 free months!
Website/Blogging
- WordPress – my website is created on WordPress.
- Bluehost – when I created it I knew very little about websites and hosting services that is why one of the most important things was the customer support. I changed about 4 hosting service providers and at the end, comparing all of them I ended up with Bluehost. It seems to be the best in terms of price/quality of service and I am quite happy with it.

- Kindle Direct Publishing – If you are planning to take advantage of the KDP Select and publish exclusively on Amazon then this is where you should go to.
- Draft 2 Digital – If you would like to have your book on all possible platform then this is the easiest and best place to do that.
