Migrate Your Podcast from Podbean to Your WordPress Website

Move your podcast and episodes from Podbean to your WordPress website using our Seriously Simple Podcasting plugin.

  2. Select Import External Feed
  3. Follow the steps outlined in the following article including the steps for syncing your podcast and episode files with Castos: Import an external RSS feed into your WordPress website
  4. Select Feed Details and enter the details not included in the RSS feed migration (i.e. your podcast’s cover image, categories, etc.)
  5. Before moving on to the next step, copy the RSS feed URL from Podcasting > Settings > Publishing:

Redirect the RSS feed

Redirecting the Podbean RSS feed to your podcast’s new feed in Castos is similar to having your mail forwarded to a new home address. In other words, until Apple Podcasts and other podcast directories have had a chance to update their system, we want them to be forwarded (or redirected) to your new RSS feed at Castos if they look to Podbean for your podcast. 

1. Sign into your Podbean dashboard and go to Settings > Feed/iTunes:

2. On the Feed/iTunes page, select Advanced Feed Settings and paste the Castos RSS feed URL as shown below:

3. Click Update Options 

NOTE: We recommend waiting 4 weeks before canceling your account with Podbean. This will give all the podcast directories enough time to pick up on the changes and update your show's information.
