One tap will give you (both Android and iOS users) the power to reach literally millions of new listeners by publishing to Apple Podcasts via Podcast Connect Apple ID login as we pass your feed URL to Apple Podcast Connect No Cut and Pasting, Spotify, iHeartRadio and Spreaker. Also, once a podcast is available on Apple Podcasts it automatically becomes available on other key listening platforms such as Breaker, Pocket Casts, Overcast and more – giving you the opportunity to literally double your audience.The importance of good distribution is equally as important as creating excellent content, that’s why we wanted to make it super straightforward for our users.Instead of thinking ‘where should I submit my podcast?’ and the need to access individual platforms, we’ve removed one step so you can quickly access and distribute straight from one location. What’s more, the one-tap functionality, combined with our unique live record feature, means that you can literally record and distribute a podcast in seconds, wherever and whatever you’re doing. - Submit Your Show, We’ll Take Care of the RestThen it’s just a matter of waiting up to 48 hours to have your show approved (note it will be available immediately on Spreaker and Spreaker Radio). As soon as your show is accepted you’ll be notified by e-mail, but you can always check in on the status via the app – that way you can see whether it’s been approved, waiting approval or rejected.Our New Look Show Screen - The Round-UpThese changes are just some of the many users and visual rethinks we have planned for Spreaker Studio for the coming months.Follow us on social to make sure you don’t miss any of the announcements and make sure you’ve got the latest version of Spreaker Studio so you can enjoy the benefits! - Podcast Review of the Week: “History Unplugged Podcast” For history lovers who listen to podcasts, History Unplugged is the most comprehensive show of its kind. It's the only show that dedicates episodes to both interviewing experts and answering questions from its audience. First, it features a call-in show where you can ask our resident historian (Scott Rank, PhD) absolutely anything (What was it like to be a Turkish sultan with four wives and twelve concubines? If you were sent back in time, how would you kill Hitler?). Second, it features long-form interviews with best-selling authors who have written about everything. Topics include gruff World War II generals who flew with airmen on bombing raids, a war horse who gained the rank of sergeant, and presidents who gave their best speeches while drunk.

I subscribe to a podcast when the content matches my interests and name, audio quality is good, focused, and they drive value to listener life - What does the listener get from the content or what emotions are driven… impactful!!Deliver undeniable value first, and then ask for the commitment of a subscribe in Apple Podcasts or other listening apps.Send listeners to your website and place “Subscribe” links to Apple, Google Podcasts, Spotify, etc. You can include directions on what to do with these links if you want… many folks just don’t understand all that stuff- Voxnest Data Shows Women Over the Age of 55 Listen to More Podcasts than Men +55When looking at the gender split, podcast listening takes a turn when looking at age groups. 2019 might be the year of the woman, with listening jumping from 41.5% to 44.9% for women, while decreasing from 58.5% to 55.51% for men. Females aged between 55-64 and over 65 have been listening to more podcasts than males in the same age groups. This likely is due to more content being published for a female audience, as shows focused on genres such as true crime surge in popularity.https://blog.voxnest.com/data-finds-women-over-the-age-of-55-listen-to-more-podcasts-than-men/#more-623- Podcast Review of the Week: “It's Not That Serious” Humor writer and popular online personality Anna Lind Thomas hosts the irreverent, hilarious and faith filled podcast that will inspire you to fully enjoy life, even when things look grim.

Totally makes sense to me.Seems like the power is to use both Meetup and Facebook GroupsOrganizers discussed in the blog post generally feel like Meetup is great for RSVPs but those people aren’t as likely to show up. Those that find out about events on Facebook do tend to show up more. Meetup attendees are notoriously flakey”. I agree, I have run Podcaster Meetups in Seattle for Years.Attendance will vary a lot based on month of the year, venue and purpose of the eventCommunities attract all levels of podcasterBeing an Event Organizer can have many professional benefits - building your leadership brand can help your podcast grow too. On the listener community side, I would recommend to create just a Facebook group for your listeners to engage with each other and ge listener feedback on topics and building intra-listener relationships. -Podcast Promo of the Week: Multilinguish Podcast by Babbel USA Team: Are Not multilingual, but language-curious? Explore how language connects us all — from the producers at the language-learning app Babbel.
