Our editorial secret that we WANT you to know about
There is something that you should probably know – editorial pitching does pay off. PR for your podcast does work. And you should absolutely keep going and pitch away.
And there is something else too – our editorial platform, PodcastRex.com, our newsletter as well as our podcast feed are completely free for you to pitch to!
So What is Podcast Rex?
Podcast Rex is our editorial platform that is specifically designed to connect podcast listeners to great shows. It’s more than just a website too, it’s a whole community of podcast enthusiasts who can interact with new shows through the site itself, social channels and newsletters.
The best news is that YOU can also be featured. It is completely free (and encouraged) that you pitch your podcast for review and featuring on PodcastRex.com.
What you can expect from Podcast Rex:
- Engaging features about new shows
- Interviews with fascinating hosts
- Reviews of latest podcasts
- Listicle articles about podcasts in specific genres
- Newsletters suited just for your podcasting taste
- A dedicated recommendation podcast feed
- Social channels full of video clips from the shows we love across TikTok, YouTube, X and Facebook
& so much more!
About our Podcast Rex Socials on TikTok, YouTube, X and Facebook
The way we see Podcast Rex is through a multimedia lens. Our social channels strategy creates engaging videos posts that showcase the best moments from your podcasts. This is also how we know what works in podcasting (and what doesn’t!) as we can closely monitor the activity on Podcast Rex socials. We also can then target any activity across demographics, to further grow listenership for your shows.
About The Great British Podcasts Newsletter
Every Sunday, our Great British Podcasts newsletter goes out to over 130,000 podcast listeners. As one of the most popular podcast newsletters in the world, we can get your show featured to attract the most engaging audience of all – actual podcast lovers! We can do targeted newsletters or send them out to all of our subscribers, so this is all a great way for you to discover new listeners beyond your existing audiences.
About Your Next Podcast with Lauren Layfield
We also have one more secret weapon – our feed, Your Next Podcast. This is a dedicated recommendation podcast by BBC Radio 1 DJ Lauren Layfield that features ‘episode ones’ of new series and always-on shows, too. We love to show off new shows, and this feed is a sure way to get an additional boost in downloads for your latest series or for a particularly exciting episode! Lauren has got great taste too, so any feature sits alongside a long list of other excellent recommendations.
Tips for Pitching Your Show:
There is no rulebook when it comes to pitching podcasts for review but we do know that there are some questions that we would like answered:
- Why is your podcast important? And why is it important right now?
- Is there a problem your podcast is solving? And is it doing so creatively/differently to others?
- And why would our readers and listeners be interested in your show?
So now you know: your favourite podcast marketing agency is also behind your top podcast publication. We just love podcasts – can you tell? Do write to us to be featured as there is nothing better than telling others about shows we love.
