Here are some questions we often get asked about private podcasts.
Every podcast should be submitted to Apple Podcasts' directory. Unlike other platforms (like Spotify, and Google Podcasts) Apple still requires you to submit your podcast feed manually. If you use a hosting platform like Transistor, they'll generate the RSS feed you'll need to submit to Apple Podcast Connect.
There are several reasons you might want to switch your podcast to a different hosting provider.
Better features: Different podcast hosting companies offer different features. You might find that another company has features that better suit your needs, such as the ability to host multiple podcasts, dynamic ad insertion, or better analytics.
Cost savings: It's possible that another hosting company could offer lower prices or better pricing plans that save you money in the long run.
Improved customer support: If you've had issues with your current hosting company's customer support, switching to a different company could provide better assistance and response times.
Modern interface: Some older podcast hosts have an interface that’s outdated and less intuitive than new options. Many people switch to get a more modern and user-friendly experience.
AI transcription leverages machine learning algorithms and natural language processing technologies to convert spoken language (audio) into written text.
You may have used speech-to-text that leverages a similar technology when you've uploaded a video to YouTube or Facebook, and it's automatically generated captions. Google Docs also has a similar speech-to-text feature.
A private podcast is a show distributed directly to subscribers via a unique RSS feed, allowing them to listen in their preferred player but bypassing public directories like Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
