Tips & Notes
- Always double-check that your Squarespace feed is submitted to podcast directories such as Apple Podcasts and Spotify after changes.
- Blubrry statistics use the IAB Tech Lab measurement guidelines, giving you industry-standard analytics.
- If you switch hosts later, you can still use the same Blubrry Stats tracking prefix across platforms.
