How to Upload Podcast to Spotify

You’ll need to use a third-party podcast hosting platform to upload your podcast to Spotify. Here’s the general process:

1. Choose a podcast hosting platform. Many options are available, each with different features and pricing plans. Some popular choices include Anchor, Buzzsprout, Podbean, and Libsyn.
2. Create an account on the chosen platform. Follow the platform’s instructions to sign up and create your podcast account.
3. Upload your podcast episodes. Follow the platform’s instructions to upload your audio files (MP3 format is usually recommended) and add episode details like titles, descriptions, and artwork.
4. Generate your RSS feed. Once your episodes are uploaded, the hosting platform will generate the RSS feed for your podcast. This is the link you’ll need to submit to Spotify.
5. Submit your RSS feed to Spotify for Podcasters. Go to Spotify for Podcasters and log in with your Spotify account. Follow the instructions to add your podcast by submitting your RSS feed.
6. Wait for Spotify to review and approve your podcast. This process can take a few days. Once approved, the show will be available on Spotify.
