Capability 01

Every directory in one view.

Three tiers, one surface. Primary apps are auto-detected from our platform crawlers. Secondary directories you confirm by pasting the show URL once. The Podcast Index ecosystem derives automatically from your feed GUID.

  • Primary (auto-detected): Apple, Spotify, YouTube Music, Amazon Music.
  • Secondary (paste-once): Castbox, iHeart, Player FM, Podchaser, Pocket Casts, Overcast, and more.
  • Podcast Index ecosystem (derived): Castamatic, Fountain, Podverse, CurioCaster, LNBeats, Metacast, Steno.fm, TrueFans.

Capability 02

Catch the duplicates that split your audience.

Host migrations, re-uploads, and platform glitches leave shows with two (or three) parallel listings on the same app. Each one collects its own rankings, its own reviews, and its own listener counts. None of them looks as strong as a consolidated single listing should.

  • Every active listing tracked per platform, not just the top one.
  • Amber semaphore flags any platform with more than one active row.
  • Full URL list in one place. Share with platform support to consolidate.

Why this matters

Listeners and the platform's algorithm see two separate shows. Rankings, reviews, and follower counts split between them. A chunk of your audience never finds the "real" one.

Capability 03

New outlets, by market. And one-link sharing.

The big four cover most of the world. Not all of it. We surface region-specific podcast directories grouped by market, with direct submission URLs. For sharing, we point you at the smart-link pages that already exist for your show.

  • 7 regional markets with submission-ready outlets.
  • Smart-link pages: pod.link, Odesli, Plink, podfollow, Podnews. Pick whichever you prefer for bios, signatures, show notes.
  • Niche communities too: Hayti (Black creators), The End (fiction & completed shows).

Frequently asked

Does PodSEO submit my show to missing directories?

No. Most directories require ownership-verified submission, which we can't do on your behalf. For secondary directories we open the submission site with one click and ask you to paste the show URL back. We then keep that listing under watch.

Do you generate a branded link hub at podseo.fm/my-show?

No. Instead we surface the smart-link pages that already exist for your show on third-party services: pod.link, Odesli, Plink, podfollow, Podnews. Pick whichever one you prefer for bios, signatures, and show notes.

How do you find duplicate listings?

Our platform crawlers track every active listing tied to your show on Apple, Spotify, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music. If more than one active row shows up for the same podcast on the same platform, we flag it amber and list every URL so you can ask the platform's support to consolidate.

What's in the "Already listed" section?

The Podcast Index ecosystem: Castamatic, Fountain, Podverse, CurioCaster, LNBeats, Metacast, Steno.fm, TrueFans. These services pull from a shared catalog keyed by your feed's GUID, so if your feed is healthy they light up automatically. We surface the page URLs so you can verify the listing yourself.

Does this replace my podcast host?

No. Your host still publishes your RSS feed and stores the audio. PodSEO sits next to your host, audits where the feed actually arrives, and flags the gaps and duplicates.

Distribution mapping on every tier.

The four primary apps, secondary directories, the Podcast Index ecosystem, regional outlets, and smart-link discovery. Included on every plan.
