Stunning, No-Code Podcast Websites
Launching a simple website for your podcast has never been easier! With Captivate's in-built website tools, you'll be live in no time! Every podcast hosted using Captivate can enjoy a completely free podcast website that is easy to use, looks stunning on any device, and is fully setup for search engine optimization (SEO).
Measurable Marketing Links
Your Marketing Links library is a convenient place to store all of your podcast-related marketing links, such as social media, monetization or podcast directory links, for easy access and also to help "feed" other parts of Captivate such as your podcast player, free Captivate Site, and Single Promotional Link.
Integrated Interview Management
Once your guests have booked their interview using Captivate, you can manage the whole process from your dashboard.
From gathering the right information for your show to making sure that cancelations and reschedules are simply communicated, Captivate handles it all.
Complete with a memorable public booking link, total availability control, and direct integration with your favorite remote recording platforms, Captivate's interview management features save you time AND money.
IAB-Certified Podcast Analytics
As the podcast industry continues to develop and evolve, the one thing that we are dedicated to as a podcast hosting platform is of course, the accuracy of your podcast analytics.
We are passionate about getting closer to the people listening, not just the number of file downloads that your podcast receives and that's why, Captivate, is proud to say that we are IAB-certified as a podcast analytics provider.
Episode Planning
Plan your episodes, connect research links from across the web, add private production notes, link guests to episodes and print or email your episode plans to your team, guests, and more.
Then, convert your planned episodes to live episodes with one click - goodbye copy and paste!
Plus... Captivate will build your show notes for you automatically from your plan!
Quickly & Easily Distribute Your Podcast Everywhere, with a Single Click
Podcast distribution is a vital part of podcasting. Making your show available in as many outlets as possible gives you the best possible chance to reach new listeners across the globe, on any device.
Captivate's distribution center takes away all of that confusion and makes it easy (and free!) to submit your podcast to every directory in the world, with handy quick links for submission (and one-click submission for the podcast platforms that support it.)
Research Links Browser Extension
Using Captivate's Research Links feature, you can easily collate links and add them to your episode plans or directly to your show notes.
Deep research equals high-quality episodes. Now you can achieve that quality in a fraction of the time, and link all relevant episode links to guests, episodes, and planned productions.
Download Captivate's Podcast Research Tool extension for Chrome and save any link to your podcast research!
Measurable Short Links
Turn long external URLs from sponsors or your own marketing strategy into short, branded and memorable links.
Visits to these links are fully tracked, giving you an insight into how your promotions, affiliate traffic and other important links are performing.
