Easy way to manage your Podcast website

by luduing·5 months ago

This is an easy way to mantain my Podcast on my own website. I publish the episodes to many plattforms, but it is difficult to point your audience to every single site. With this WP theme, I have everything centralized and can send my audience to my own website, so I have more control if I want to change any plattform.

Simple and easy to navigate, Love it.

Thanks for this free and yet amazing theme. Glad to have it acceseble from the wordpress repository!.

Super easy. Great support! Recommended

This is my first written review, and the reason I’m writing is because this is the easiest and targeted theme I’ve installed. I was personally supported by the builder on something I was trying to do, even though it’s a free theme, and it was something that changed the theme – so I feel support for the paid theme would be excellent as well.
I have nothing but praise for the theme and the builder. I got a podcast site up and running in a day!
