When you're listening to a podcast episode in an app like Apple Podcasts, you might notice there is an option to open the "Episode Link" (or similar). This is a URL that's in your feed that tells podcast players where listeners should go for more specific information about that episode.

This is a great opportunity to drive listeners to your website, where they can learn more about you, subscribe to your mailing list, and more.

Unfortunately, most Podcast hosts automatically add their own URL to your feed, driving your listeners to your generic podcast host page. This is a LOT less effective than sending them to the website you've spent time and effort creating.
