Single Promo Link

A memorable link that you can direct people to so that they can subscribe to your podcast in their podcast app of choice, on any device. All visits to this link are tracked and you can even see which apps people choose to listen in!

Measurable Marketing Links

Your Marketing Links library is a convenient place to store all of your podcast-related marketing links, such as social media, monetization or podcast directory links, for easy access and also to help "feed" other parts of Captivate such as your podcast player, free Captivate Site, and Single Promotional Link.

IAB-Certified Podcast Analytics

As the podcast industry continues to develop and evolve, the one thing that we are dedicated to as a podcast hosting platform is of course, the accuracy of your podcast analytics.

We are passionate about getting closer to the people listening, not just the number of file downloads that your podcast receives and that’s why, Captivate, is proud to say that we are IAB-certified as a podcast analytics provider.

Quickly & Easily Distribute Your Podcast Everywhere, with a Single Click

Podcast distribution is a vital part of podcasting. Making your show available in as many outlets as possible gives you the best possible chance to reach new listeners across the globe, on any device.

Captivate's distribution center takes away all of that confusion and makes it easy (and free!) to submit your podcast to every directory in the world, with handy quick links for submission (and one-click submission for the podcast platforms that support it.)

Measurable Short Links

Turn long external URLs from sponsors or your own marketing strategy into short, branded and memorable links.

Visits to these links are fully tracked, giving you an insight into how your promotions, affiliate traffic and other important links are performing.
