Unfortunately, Anchor doesn’t currently support adding analytics prefixes like Podcorn's to RSS feeds.

Although we can't automatically verify your podcast's performance, you can still use Podcorn to find fantastic sponsorship opportunities. Simply include screenshots of your latest episode's download numbers in your proposals.

Anchor offers a useful metric called Estimated Audience Size, which reflects the average number of plays each episode gets within the first 30 days of publishing. Take a screenshot of this figure from your Anchor dashboard and include it in your proposals.

You can also share a screenshot of your total downloads for a recent week by selecting the Plays metric in your Anchor dashboard and viewing it by week. For more details, check out Anchor’s analytics here.

Additionally, including audience demographic information, such as what’s available from Spotify, can significantly improve your proposal’s success rate by helping sponsors gauge if your show and audience align with their campaign goals.

After completing a sponsorship and publishing the approved content, brands will likely request a 30-day download count. At that point, you can provide a screenshot of the downloads the episode received over the previous month.

If you’re open to exploring new hosting options that support the Podcorn analytics prefix, consider Buzzsprout, Podomatic, Captivate, or RSS.
