When you let someone configure your podcast, there is a good chance you "Didn't know what I didn't know" and you may not even own your show. Today I cover some tips.

1. Make your media host offers a redirect ( use the coupon code sopfree to get a free month at Libsyn.com)

2. Make sure it's YOUR email and credit card on your media host and web host.

3. Make sure you use YOUR login and password when submitting to Apple, Google, Stitcher, and Spotify. These directories have additional stats that show how far people listen.
