After you’ve created a new podcast, get it into the hands of listeners by submitting it to podcast directories.
What is a podcast directory?
A podcast directory is a website or app that lists and categorizes podcasts. Most directories such as Apple Podcasts or Spotify, are also where people listen to, search for, and follow/subscribe to podcasts.
What do I need to get my podcasts on directories?
To submit your podcast to most directories, you will need to have:
Created a show and published at least one episode to your podcast at the time of submission.
Access to your Zencastr account and RSS feed.
Created an account with the directory you are submitting to.
It is important to note that the above are the minimum requirements. Specific directories may have additional requirements.
How do I get my podcast on directories?
Get your podcast listed on various directories by submitting your show’s RSS feed. You will only need to submit your feed to each directory once.
Once your podcast is listed in a particular directory, it will update your podcast’s listing with your new episodes by reading your RSS feed.
