Are you looking to create a private podcast that only your employees or community members can access?
Private podcasts are a great way to share company-wide messages with your organization or give access to a special feed for memberships (an advertising-free feed for example).

Apple Podcasts (formerly iTunes Podcasts) is the first podcast directory you should submit your podcast too.
You can choose up to 3 separate categories for your show. We recommend you select all 3 so you have more places to be found.
If your show fits into one of the subcategories, we recommend you choose that because you’ll also be listed in the main category.
For example, if your show is about nutrition, when you choose the Nutrition subcategory, you’ll be listed in both the main Health & Fitness category and the Nutrition subcategory.
Also, make sure the first category you choose in your podcast platform is the most relevant as that will be the main category you’ll be listed in.
Apple recently changed the official Podcast categories and this list is updated as of July 2021.

As of July 2021, there are just over 1.75 million podcasts, but over 600 million blogs!

You need a podcast RSS feed to submit your podcast to iTunes and other podcast directories.
You’ll typically get your RSS feed from your podcast hosting company. This is by far the easiest way to create a podcast RSS feed. Details below.
Or you can get (or create) your feed from your own website if you use something like Squarespace or the PowerPress plugin for WordPress.
Make sure you don’t upload your audio files directly to website host (with Squarespace being the one exception) as that will cause major issues. You will need to host your .mp3’s with a dedicated podcast host.

You want to make sure you submit a feed with only your podcast episodes, not a combination of blog posts and podcast episodes.
I’ll show you how to create (or find) your podcast-only RSS feed on the most popular platforms, but first, there are some requirements you need to make sure you follow before trying to submit your feed: [Read more…] about How To Create (Or Find) Your Podcast RSS Feed On The Top Platforms
