The # Of Podcast Downloads Is A Useless Metric

BY FAME

The # of podcast downloads” is a useless metric.

It’s like measuring the success of your ebook based on how many times it’s been downloaded.

Yeah, it’s nice that someone downloaded the episode but did they *actually* listen to it?

Often, the answer is no.

Yet, podcast hosts (and guests) obsess over this metric which steers their focus in the wrong direction.

A better thing to focus on is engagement.

As a result of your podcast, you want the right people to connect with you on social media, interact with your content, or mention your episode during sales calls.
