Everyone says you need to track your podcast statistics to better understand your listener and how your content is performing. But what does that mean? What are your numbers really telling you?

Are there ways to optimize your episodes to see increased listens and downloads? Do listens and downloads even matter?

These are questions that we get all the time and we thought it was time to share the knowledge.

The most important thing for you to take away from this episode is that your numbers are telling you a very important story. They are not ever going to be 100% accurate, but if you track and trend over time, you'll be able to tell what's going right, what's going wrong, and what your tweaks and changes are doing for your show.

Back with the second part of our "Is Podcasting Saturated?" conversation and sharing all the good tips! The Real Brian was perusing his email and received one that was specifically about this topic.

In the email they discussed some of the stats surrounding podcasting as well as what those stats mean for saturation.

K-Dubs came in for the win to corroborate the stats that the email shared as well as providing some stats for YouTube channels to show that podcasting truly isn't a saturated medium right now.

It's all about how you're using your podcast.
