Wix Podcast Player: Adding and Setting Up the Wix Podcast Player

7 min read
Showcase your podcast episodes directly on your website with the Wix Podcast Player.
By connecting your RSS feed with the app, a built in Podcast Overview page displaying all your episodes in one place, and a dedicated Episodes Page for individual episodes and their information are automatically generated. This means that new episode pages are created automatically as you add episodes to your hosting platform- freeing you up to focus on your content.
You can also customize the app's design and layout so that it best compliments your site's existing look and feel.
