A podcast hosting platform is where you'll create episodes, upload your recorded audio, add show notes, and publish your episodes. They will also generate an RSS feed for your podcast. Once you have a valid RSS feed, you can submit your podcast to directories and listening apps."

Anchor also only allows you to create one podcast. Transistor is one of the few podcast hosting apps that allows you to host unlimited podcasts from one plan. You can even invite different users to each podcast you create (perfect for people who are building their own podcast network)."

          "text": "Podcasts can make money through advertising, but typically advertisers are looking for shows with more than 2,000 downloads/listens per episode. A better approach we've seen is to get listeners to support you on Patreon. You can also get them to contribute through PayPal or Buy Me a Coffee. The most effective supporter perk we've seen is a 'listener shout out,' where you mention your supports at the end of your episode, and in your show notes."

          "text": "The most important step is to make sure you have a trailer episode published in your podcast feed, and to make sure you've submitted your podcast to Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Player FM, and Podcast Index. A podcast hosting provider like Transistor will help you submit to all the listening apps. To grow your podcast to thousands of downloads you'll need to understand what your audience wants and create content that engages them better than your competition. Also make sure you use distribution channels like Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, and email newsletters."
