Recommend other podcasts to your podcast's fans

As a podcast creator, you probably have other shows that you would recommend to your listeners. This might be a show that you're doing yourself or a friend's show or just a podcast that you think would align with your audience's tastes. Well, now there's a way to share your recommendations with your audience.

We have a feature called podcast recommendations that lets you showcase up to 10 shows you think your listeners should discover.

How it works

Setting up recommendations in Transistor takes just a few minutes:

  1. Add your picks – Head to Settings → Promotion in your Transistor dashboard and search for up to 10 podcasts you'd recommend

  2. View it on your website – Your recommendations automatically appear on your podcast website.

  3. Share with listeners – You can share your "recommended podcasts" page with your listeners in your show notes, on social media, and to your newsletter.

  4. Cross-platform visibility – Recommendations also show up in supported podcast apps like Pocket Casts and True Fans.
