How to Get Featured in Apple Podcasts

Pocket-Sized Podcasting With Alitu

Welcome to Pocket-Sized Podcasting, brought to you by Alitu: The Podcast Maker. And on this episode, we’re talking about being featured in Apple Podcasts. Apple Podcasts, aka, iTunes, is a huge listening platform, so getting an episode featured there can send a lot of new ears your way. Of course, there’s no way to guarantee this, but here’s how to have a good crack at it. Firstly, the episode in question shouldn’t be published yet. They’re looking for at least two weeks’ lead time to feature you. You’ll find the promotion request form at [thepodcasthost.com/appleform](http://thepodcasthost.com/appleform) Fill that out and convince them why it's worth featuring. For example, interviewing a film star ahead of a big premiere, or, covering a major event or news story. Apple also wants to know how you’ll promote the feature on their platform, so, the more you can offer them, the more likely you are to catch their eye. For an example of us featuring one of our podcasts there, along with download data, head on over to [thepodcasthost.com/itunesfrontpage](http://thepodcasthost.com/itunesfrontpage)
