Best Practice

Determine how you’d like to measure your podcast success. There’s a multitude of ways to measure how well a podcast is performing, and it can be overwhelming if you’re looking at too much data. Pick a few benchmarks and analytics you want to focus on. These can change over time of course, but hone in on a few at a time for better understanding.

Support Advice Question of the Week

Help Us Help You, Podcast – The more information you provide support (not just us, but anyone) the better we can serve you and get any issues fixed quickly. Some things that will greatly help us help you faster are:

  • When calling, have your login information and better yet, be logged into your site, your account at Blubrry and any other services you need help with.
  • Know your RSS feed address or at least HOW/where the RSS is generated. (Blubrry Publisher, WordPress with PowerPress or some other way).
  • If it’s a billing issue, have your payment method handy when you call. 
  • Use the contact form at Blubrry.com/support OR call the 877 number.  Direct emails and calls can get lost as they are harder to keep track of.
  • Leave a voicemail if we don’t answer right away. PLEASE do not keep trying over and over. Leave a voicemail and we WILL get back to you.

Got a question you’d like us to answer on the show? Drop an email to mike@blubrry.com (audio, text, video) and we may use it. You can also post a question on the Blubrry Podcasting Facebook group.

The best place for support with any Blubrry product or service is our ticket system (https://blubrry.com/support/). Tickets give the whole team access rather than direct emails or calls.

Coming to you this week from Mike Dell’s World Studio in Traverse City, Michigan & MacKenzie’s undisclosed location in Columbus, Ohio. Produced by the Blubrry Pro-Production team.
