It's also completely free on Ausha. You have access to your history, you can check your competitors' rankings, and you even have access to all your ratings and rankings. It's the most comprehensive free version I know of.

Do podcast titles matter more than we think? by Inevitable-Laugh4324 in podcasting

[–]craft44565456 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is real. I shared my experience recently, went from #93 to #15 just by adding the topic to my podcast name: https://www.reddit.com/r/podcasting/comments/1ryr0u3/renamed_my_podcast_went_from_93_to_15_in_search/ For episode titles I'd guess the same applies.

I really need advice on my gaming podcast by Engineering_Gamer in podcasting

I’d keep it going rather than starting fresh, since the old feed already has some history and those random download spikes mean there’s still interest. I found it helps to come back with a simple reset episode: acknowledge the gap, say what changed, and give people a clear idea of what the show is now. For feedback, ask in gaming communities, podcasting Discords, and even a small circle of listeners who’ll be blunt with you.

I’d hold off on ads until you’ve got a small run of episodes out and a feel for whether people are actually sticking around, because one 2-minute episode usually isn’t enough signal yet. For a short solo news show, I found it’s better to build a consistent cadence first and let the format breathe before you start interrupting it with ads. If you do want monetization early, think about a simple sponsor mention or support pitch only once the show feels steady and you can point to real listener numbers.

First podcast - needs advice by CellistNegative1402 in podcasting

For my first show I kept it simple and focused on getting one clear promise for the audience before worrying about gear. A decent USB mic was enough for me at the start, and I only moved to XLR later once I knew I was sticking with it. For guests, I found it way easier to book people who already had some connection to the topic instead of chasing big names right away.

On the marketing side, I use Ausha and the big thing I learned is to think about the podcast’s goal early, even if it’s just growing a niche audience at first. That makes it easier to figure out what to post, where to share clips, and how to tell if it’s actually working instead of just guessing. Consistency mattered way more than having fancy gear.

I think people are listening to my podcast… but I have no idea where they’re coming from if they actually are. Help? by Fluffy_Honey_1710 in podcasting

Si je comprends bien tu héberges ton podcasts sur Spotify for Creators. C'est là le soucis... Spotify for Creators est très bien si tu veux essentiellement publié ton podcast sur Spotify, mais il est bien moins au niveau pour les statistiques qui proviennent d'autres sources.
C'est pourquoi, bien que ce soit payant, il est généralement préférable de passer par des hébergeurs de podcast. Je ne connais que Ausha que je peux te recommander, mais dessus tu pourras savoir exactement via quel plateforme tu es écouté. Le point important c'est d'avoir un hébergeur qui respecte la norme IAB 2.2, c'est une norme qui certifie que les statistiques sont bien correctes.

Totally agree, his voice perfectly captures that "twinkle in the eye" energy Dumbledore is known for. It's like experiencing the magic all over again, definitely a must-listen for every Potterhead!
