And thatโs the bit that matters. So let's make sure your episode titles are encouraging clicks and listens.

Oh man, you, Dare, and Shy were my go-to's for British AOR back in my late teens / early 20's. โค๏ธ
This is so true. I saw a post recently where someone had just released their trailer, and it had a decent uptake, so now they wanted to know how to monetize it... ๐

That being said, Google Podcasts Manager was excellent, and one of the few (only?) podcast apps at the time that showed search traffic and where listeners were coming from.
I didn't mind the app itself - I'm not one for multiple features, so it just playing podcasts simply was enough for me. :)
This might be the nerdiest comment yet, and I โค๏ธ you for it.
Distance to my belly.
