What do you do if your podcasting success is lacking without data and analytics?

Start using analytics tools like Podtrac or Chartable. They track things like downloads, listener demographics, and where people are listening from. This data can help you understand what's working and what needs improvement in your podcast.

I cannot think of anybody on this entire platform who can benefit from this nonsense AI generated article other than an AI podcaster GPT. Most of the big platforms offer data. If you can't access it, that's probably because you did an oops and signed up with Spotify for Podcasters. Move to a decent hosting provider. Ask them to release your dashboard access to you. Problem solved.

No content is created in a vacuum--remember the podcast network is just one channel to distribute your audio/video content. Embedd clips in email newsletters, blogs on your website, etc. to gain a better understanding of your 1st party data.

Additionally, seek out direct feedback from your listeners. Engage with them through social media or even direct communication like emails or surveys. It’s also useful to compare your podcast to others in your niche. Listen to popular podcasts that share your theme or subject matter. Analyze what they do well and consider how you can incorporate similar elements into your own episodes without losing your unique voice.

Use surveys and feedback loops in ADDITION to your data. This whole article is just stupid. And you're making me hate myself for having to write all this to correct your crap.

Consider hosting live sessions, such as Q&A episodes, where listeners can interact with you in real-time. This can provide immediate feedback and foster a stronger connection with your audience.

Experiment with different formats and structures within your podcast to see what resonates best with your audience. For instance, if a particular episode format, like a panel discussion or a solo deep-dive into a topic, receives more positive feedback, consider incorporating more episodes of that type.

Laughing @Neal Veglio's comment (writing a minimum response here to allow me to post) (still had some way to go, so had to write more. i hope this is useful to you all!) Sorry about the Typo's - at least you can tell it is not AI generated. Or can you?)

Oh my god you sound like a $97 Instagram podcasting guru with this "content is king" nonsense. Seriously. Just stop writing articles about podcasting. You're embarrassing yourself. Also, this is literally the same advice as the second one. Die, Robot, Die!

"Compensate for a lack of data"? Are you actually for real? You think a Facebook group is going to help you reach success to the point you don't need actual data? Wow. Well done. You've actually made me lose the will to live with this one. Bravo.
