Smartlinks are a powerful feature that enables podcasters to generate dynamic and intelligent links for their episodes. These links act as a gateway, directing listeners to different platforms where the podcast is available. This ensures that no matter where their audience discovers their content, they can easily access it.
Podcasters can access their smartlinks conveniently through their dashboard. With just a few clicks, they can generate unique links for each episode, simplifying the process of sharing and promoting their content. Additionally, these smartlinks are also automatically integrated into the podcast's website, making them easily discoverable to both new and existing listeners.
All smartlinks are automatically generated with your podcast ID, such as https://subscribe.acast.com/637e37a9571c7c00119cc03a.
How to find your smartlink
Option 1
Go to your dashboard and click "Sharing" > "Website"
Locate the embed player at the bottom of your website
Click on "+ Follow", and copy the URL that looks like subscribe.acast.com/[...] to share your smartlink
Option 2
Go to your dashboard and click "Embed player"
In the player to the right, click "+ Follow" and copy the URL that looks like subscribe.acast.com/[...] to share your smartlink
While customization is a crucial aspect of any branding strategy, it's important to note that smartlinks cannot be customized directly. However, they are designed to adapt and cater to the needs of the listeners based on their device. For instance, when accessed from a desktop computer, the smartlink will suggest desktop applications or platforms that offer the best listening experience. Similarly, when accessed from a mobile device, the smartlink will automatically recommend relevant apps for seamless mobile listening.
