Do you really know what your podcast stats mean, or are they just numbers on a screen?
If you’ve ever felt confused looking at your podcast analytics, this episode is for you. I’m breaking down which stats actually matter and how to use them to make smarter decisions for your show. From why downloads don’t give the full picture, to understanding the goldmine that is your consumption rate, this episode helps you read your numbers with confidence.
You’ll learn the difference between listeners, plays, downloads, and followers, and why Apple and Spotify often show completely different numbers. I also share how to avoid losing your stats if you ever switch hosting platforms and give practical tips on how to spot patterns that help your podcast grow.
