Customize Your Buzzsprout Page

Introduction

One of the best ways to promote your podcast is to give it a home on the web! A website for your podcast is a great way for your listeners to access your episodes and it can be indexed by Google to boost your visibility!

Sometimes building and designing websites can be time-consuming and delay the launch of your podcast. Launching your podcast should be easy, so once you move to one of our paid plans, we provide a podcast website for you!

Your Buzzsprout website will include your published episodes, descriptions, transcriptions, chapter markers, and host info. It will house your directory listings, social media links, and Buzzsprout Subscription sign-up!

Plus, all websites include a share page with quick links to all your listings and social pages!

Customize Your Buzzsprout Website & Share Page

To customize your podcast website and share page, head to your Website page within your Buzzsprout account. There you can customize the look and feel of your website and share page. You will be able to upload a background image or select a color to be used for your background and links. Keep in mind, that the Website page is not available in the mobile view or while on the free plan.

Pro Tip: If you use an image, your background image should be a minimum of 1250x260px and less than 800k (.jpg or .png).

Add Links to Your Social Media Platforms

Give your listeners an easy way to follow you on Social Media by adding your social links to your website! Click on the Social Media Links tab and add links to your Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube pages. Just make sure to enter the public URLs for those pages!

Note: Your directory links will pull directly from the information on the Directories page, so once you are listed there we will add that button to your Buzzsprout website for you!
