Hi there – My artwork doesn’t show up in the iTunes store.
-I published my feed with Feeder and host it on my site
-Feedburner pulls it in
-I submitted it myself in iTunes
-I have been approved, and people have started subscribing
iTunes link:

Great post! This info really helped me get my first podcast up to itunes. Even though it’s really simple, this stuff can get really confusing to anyone who hasn’t done it before.

I followed the tutorial up until the Feedburner pat. I get this error, which surprises me since many audio files are bigger than 512K.

“Your feed filesize is larger than 512K. You need to reduce its size in order for FeedBurner to process it..”

Really nice tutorial !
I did it the same way with my blog. I wanted to track the visits through feedburner…
In the last few months I used to write my xml file manually and feedburner replaced the source link by burnt one. the burned links were used on itunes & facebook and on my website to get the full stats.

Then I have a question:
How do you include the traffic in the stats from your own blog (the source link) as it is not yet burnt by feedburner ?

what I use to do :

manual XML >>>> feedburner >>>> own website, Facebook & itunes & so on (for all the stats).

now with your method:

wordpress(source URL) >>> feedburner >>> itunes….(source stats missing).

Is there a way to get burnt links with an API or something through wordpress & podpress) to put burnt links as the source file ?

thanks a lot
Cheers

Don’t forget that hosting is cheap these days. So you can upload your podcast to a 6.50/month webhost and get great great milage.

I recenly started hosting my podcasts on Youtube and it’s competitors like megaupload. viddler.

If you haven't noticed, Podpress hasn't been updated in over a year and it includes some bugs that prevent it from working correctly in Wordpress versions 2.5 or newer. Because of this, I've developed a Podpress replacement plugin called Blubrry Powerpress (www.blubrry.com/powerpress/). Powerpress includes all the important functionality found in Podpress and is designed to import Podpress settings and episodes to be a Podpress replacement plugin. In addition, Powerpress does some things that the current version of Podpress doesn't including systematically pinging iTunes and the ability to upload new iTunes cover art within the plugin. Please check it out and feel free to contact me if you have any questions or suggestions.

Excellent tutorial Milind. I’m definitely going to try this out though I am not sure how many people actually listen to podcasts these days.
