Do you know what is the BIGGEST challenge for all new Podcasters?
It is Finding New Listeners.
Finding listeners and getting your show in front of new audiences is hard - even for seasoned podcasts, because podcasts after all, are not a very viral medium.
Think about that: You - like most people - are probably doing a chore when listening to a podcast - doing the dishes, going for a run, walking the dog, digging through dirt in your garden...
So when you discover a great podcast, you are generally not in a great position to tell someone about it. A few hours later, you are back at your computer, but are you really still thinking about sharing that podcast on Facebook? No! You have already forgotten about the show and moved on to other important things - like watching cat videos, catching up with other people's birthday- and vacation photos, reading somebody else's extended rant, or simply arguing about politics or your favorite sports team.
How many podcasts have you ever listened to, and how many have you actually gone out of your way and recommended to social group or friends?
Exactly! You probably said "Zero".
Podcasts are simply NOT a viral medium.
Only the biggest and baddest podcasts and "Pro" casts get all the press, all the social juice and word-of-mouth, because those podcasts also happen to have a large platform powering them - and a ready-made, large audience that shows up ready to support the show even before a single episode has been published!
The biggest shows get all the love. More people hear about it. Then they tell others because the shows are popular. That brings in more listeners. Who tell more people. And so it goes.
Not only do the rich get richer here, but the poor get way poorer.
So what can you and I do? What about us little guys?
Your show is a diamond in the rough, except, no one is digging.
For most podcasters, constantly getting your show in front of new audiences is a huge, ongoing struggle... unless of course, you are already a celebrity and you have a legion of fans and followers - and an email list.
But what if you don't have a platform? Or a social following? Or an email list?
Where do you even begin to find people who will give your show a listen?

KissMyRSS is different from anything you've ever seen.
With most Podcast directories - like iTunes and Stitcher - the only way to be found is through the search results.
Sure, some of them offer a "New & Noteworthy" type of discovery feature for new podcasts - but even those are either hand-curated (like iTunes' N&N), or there's some kind of rating system built in.
Like to show up in search results, your show has to meet certain qualifications.
Or, to show up high in the search results, you must be getting certain results.
And forget about showing up in the top 150 of iTunes when there are tens of thousands of shows in your category. And then there's the rating system: How many downloads, how many ratings and reviews, how many subscribers, etc.
It is literally impossible for most new podcasters to get their show in front of new listeners, because no podcast directory makes discovery as simple and as much of a "no-brainer" like KissMyRSS.
If other podcast sites are "Capitalists", then KissMyRSS is a "Socialist": "Spread the wealth!" is the motto here.
So yes, whether your show is getting 10,000 downloads or 10 downloads, you have an equal and fair opportunity as every other podcaster to get on the home page.
And it's free.
That's why there's simply nothing else like KissMyRSS.com
