For those who don't know, platforms, for example Spotify, don't directly host your podcasts, for that you need an RSS feed to integrate with these distribution services. To make this process of creating, updating and distributing your podcasts easier, there are several podcast services that already take care of all this work for you.

The basic features you want for a podcast hosting service are:

  • Simple method to upload your audio files.
  • Generation of an RSS feed with the description of your channel and its episodes.
  • Distribute your RSS feed to the famous platforms: iTunes (Apple Podcasts), Google Podcasts, Spotify, Stitcher,…
  • Provide a channel page for your listeners to search and download episodes directly.
