Show Notes

In this episode, host Dylan Schmidt shares tips and strategies for increasing the number of ratings and reviews for your podcast. He explains the importance of building trust and credibility with listeners through a high number of positive reviews, and shares a proven method for asking listeners to leave a rating and review.   

Here are a few key takeaways from the episode:

  • Podcast ratings and reviews help build trust and credibility with listeners. If a listener sees a podcast with a high number of positive reviews, they are more likely to trust and listen to that podcast.   
  • The easiest way to get more ratings and reviews is to simply ask for them. But it's not enough to just ask; you need to provide a direct link for listeners to follow.   
  • When asking for ratings and reviews, make it personal to the listener and give them a direct ask. For example, "If you've ever enjoyed a single episode of this podcast, please do me a favor and click this link to leave a rating and review on your preferred podcasting listening platform."   
  • Provide a direct link to where listeners can leave a rating and review. You can use a service like RateThisPodcast.com to make it easy for listeners to find and leave a review.
