Am I able to only use audio when hosting my podcast on Wistia?
Of course! Wistia offers podcast hosting for both audio and video podcasts. Simply upload your podcast recording, and Wistia will distribute your show to every platform where you want to broadcast. Video podcasts are supported in Wistia Channels, and we’ll get your video podcast out to any platform that supports video content, like Apple Podcasts.
What file types are accepted in Wistia?
If you have an audio podcast, Wistia supports these types of audio files: MP3, WAV, AIF, AU, M4A, and OGG. For video podcasts, Wistia supports video recordings uploaded in MOV, MPG, AVI, FLV, F4V, MP4, M4V, ASF, WMV, VOB, MOD, 3GP, MKV, DIVX, XVID, WEBM, or MXF file formats.
Can my podcast be distributed to all podcast directories?
You betcha! Once you have your podcast feed configured and at least one episode published, you can use the RSS feed URL from Wistia to set up distribution to podcast directories like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Google Podcasts. If you have a video podcast, you’ll be right at home with Wistia Channels, and you’ll have the option to distribute your episodes to other platforms that support video podcasting too.
My podcast is hosted on another platform, so can I move all of my episodes over to Wistia?
Absolutely! If you have podcast content hosted on another platform, you can import all of your existing audio and video recordings to Wistia without losing any of your subscribers. All you need is your RSS feed URL.
Can I embed my podcast episode on my website?
With Wistia, you can embed audio and video podcasts on your own website with our customizable audio or video player. And with Wistia Channels, you can create a dedicated page or embedded playlist so that your audience can tune in to each episode as you publish them.
