How to Add Rss Feed to Podcast Addict
If you're launching your podcast, or if you've been podcasting for a few years now, you want to ensure that your show is available where your audience is, and that may change over time. Plus, with new platforms entering the market each year, you want to stay up to date with the new tools and destinations!
For new shows:
If you're just launching your podcast (and you're in a rush!), here are the major podcast platforms (as of 2021) that you need to ensure your podcast is added to:
-
Apple Podcasts
-
Spotify
-
Google Podcasts
-
iHeart Radio
-
TuneIn
For more seasoned podcasters:
If you've been podcasting for a while, you may notice that your podcast is available in places you never knew existed. This is because most platforms actually add shows through the Apple Podcasts directory.
While the most popular podcast hosting platforms -PodBean, Spreaker, Transistor, Libsyn, Buzzsprout - already have built in buttons that allow you to add your show to most directories, you should still check these platforms, and CLAIM your show so that listening analytics are more accurate!
Amazon Music
Let's start with Amazon Music, because with over 50 million Echo devices out there in the world, you want to be included on their default podcast platform! Many cars have Alexa functionality as well, meaning listeners can start a podcast at home and effortless continue listening in their car. Convenience = more downloads!
To submit your RSS feed you'll need to either create an Amazon account, or if you are an Amazon customer already, just log in using your own credentials: https://podcasters.amazon.com
Apple Podcasts
Apple Podcasts - do I need to say more? Apple has made their name synonymous with tech and has been one of the top two podcast platforms in listenership since day one. You definitely want to be on this platform.
Submit your RSS feed using a new or existing account, just remember that while submitting your podcast is free, you'll need to ensure you have a payment method available in the account : https://podcastsconnect.apple.com
Add my Podcast
Add my Podcast is a service that adds your show to multiple podcast platforms (including Pod Addict). This platform includes multiple European destinations.

iHeart Radio
Depending on which segment of the population you're in, you may learn that a lot of your audience may actually use the iHeart Radio app to listen to their favorite podcasts!
Submit your show: https://podcasters.iheart.com
Google Podcasts
Google is the biggest search engine in the world, so you can't forget to add your show to this platform! And while a few years ago, Android users relied heavily on Google Podcasts to access their favorite shows, today younger Android (and Apple) users use Spotify to listen to both music and podcasts.
