I did an experiment on my personal Twitter feed to see how my podcast @homoground looks when linking to various platforms. I posted links to my overall show page as well as to an individual episode on each platform. I wanted to see which platforms included an embeddable player directly in the post itself.
The platforms I tested are: iTunes, Acast, iHeartRadio, Stitcher, RadioPublic, Google Play, Spotify, Overcast, Podyssey, Castbox
You can read my findings and takeaways here.
I encourage you to do this for your own podcast to see how things look when linked. It will give you insight on how your artwork displays and the information provided based on which platform you’re linking.
I’d be interested to see what you discover. If you do a similar experiment, I would love if you shared your results with me :)
Next up, I will do this same experiment on my Facebook page and report my findings.
