How to Create a Podcast Website in 2026 (Step-by-Step)

A complete guide to launching a professional podcast website — from RSS import to custom domain, SEO, and publish.

Your podcast lives on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, but listeners still Google your show name. A dedicated website is how you own that discovery — show notes, subscribe links, sponsor pages, and email capture all in one place you control.

The fastest path in 2026 is RSS-first: import your existing feed, pick a template designed for podcasts, customize sections, and publish static HTML. No WordPress install, no theme hunting, no plugin stack.

01

Step 1 — Import your feed

Paste your RSS URL or search Apple Podcasts. Castee pulls episodes, artwork, author, and categories into a structured site skeleton.

02

Step 2 — Pick a template

Choose a layout that matches your show tone — minimal for solo hosts, editorial for interview shows, dark for narrative fiction.

03

Step 3 — Customize sections

Adjust colors, fonts, hero copy, subscribe CTAs, and about page content in a section-based builder.

04

Step 4 — Verify ownership

Confirm the RSS owner email so only real show owners can publish.

05

Step 5 — Publish

Your site goes live on a free subdomain or your custom domain with SSL, sitemap, and structured data included.

The time required depends on the size of your archive and how much you customize. Publishing also requires podcast ownership verification.

Podcast-first workflow

Start with your show, not a blank page.

Import feed-exposed episodes, choose a template, customize structured sections, and preview the website before you publish.
