 In today's modernized world, education and technology go hand-in-hand. Considering that 95% of teens now own or at least have access to a smart phone, teachers who record their lessons as podcasts for their students to access anywhere and everywhere could have a special advantage in reaching their students effectively.
When you think about it, teachers are by their very nature creators curating content for their students. Every day they are providing new information to their students and changing the way they think. There's value in giving these lectures life outside of the classroom and available for students 24/7. With hundreds of thousands of podcasts on their platform, Apple Podcasts has made itself the biggest player out there in the world of podcasting. Since 2005 people have been listening in and downloading their favorite podcasts straight from their directory. As of 2017, over 55% of listeners consume podcasts from Apple Podcasts/iTunes, which is why it's so important that you get your podcast on the directory and in front of listeners.
Want to get your podcast in front of 180 million potential listeners? Then you should consider getting your podcast into Spotify's directory! With Podomatic's recent partnership with Spotify, it's easier than ever to get your podcast onto their platform and in front of listeners with our built-in submission integration.
Google Play has made itself into a strong, new competitor in the podcasting scene over the last couple of years. There are over 2 billion Android devices that are active monthly as of 2017, which means that these users are only a couple of taps away from the Google Play store and from discovering your podcast.
Here's what you need included on your RSS feed to get onto Google Play:
