Latest news
- Feb 21: After last year’s Podnews Report Card highlighted the difficulty of submitting a show to Apple Podcasts, Apple has fixed things - rolling out a new, streamlined, process to automatically submit a show for creators using selected podcast hosts. It removes the requirement to open an Apple account first. The launch podcast hosts are: Audioboom, Audiomeans, Ausha, Blubrry, Buzzsprout, Captivate, Castos, Hubhopper, Libsyn, Pinecast, Podbean, Podspace and Transistor.
- Feb 20: Apple Podcasts Connect is having scheduled maintenance on March 1 for up to eight hours from 6am PST. You’ll not be able to use Apple Podcasts Connect during that time.
- Feb 19: First look: SiriusXM has just announced that it is to expand its SiriusXM Podcasts+ premium subscription to Spotify, YouTube Music, and other podcast apps via SupportingCast. “This expansion brings SiriusXM Podcasts+ benefits – including ad-free listening to new episodes, exclusive bonus content, and early access to new episodes of popular shows – to all major podcast platforms.” (You can also subscribe directly with Apple Podcasts).
- Feb 14: Are Spotify doing great things for your show? Or is Apple the thing for you? We’d love to know - the Podnews Report Card will take just ten minutes to fill in. Please fill it in! And thank you.
- Feb 13: A raw download figure doesn’t tell you whether those listeners are new, or returning. Are they people who listened once and swore to never again listen? Or are you not reaching new audiences at all? Bumper has worked out how to calculate new vs returning listeners, using first-party data within the Apple and Spotify dashboards. That data will be added to the Bumper Dashboard soon (which we reviewed last August.)
