How to Look at Your Spotify Stats

As a podcaster, understanding your audience's listening habits and preferences is crucial for creating content that resonates with them. Fortunately, Spotify provides you with various statistics to help you gauge your show's performance. In this article, we'll guide you through how to access and view your Spotify stats.

If your show was submitted to Spotify before or if you recently claimed your show in their web portal, you might not see the historical analytics data in your Simplecast account. However, you can still view all the data Spotify has for your show by following these steps:

1. Sign up for a Simplecast account and log in.

2. Click on 'See Stats' to access your Spotify dashboard.

Once you're logged in, you'll be guided through various categories that showcase your listening habits. Music will start playing, and you'll have the opportunity to explore different aspects of your listeners' behavior.

It's important to note that Spotify only began sending current analytics data for shows starting around August 23rd, 2019. If your show has been in Spotify for a while, you won't see historical analytics data in your Simplecast account. However, you should still be able to access current analytics data.

If you're wondering whether your Spotify analytics are included in your Simplecast dashboard, the answer is yes! As of recently, Spotify enabled analytics pass-through for all Simplecast shows, so you can now view your download data from Spotify alongside your show's analytics in your Simplecast dashboard.

By following these simple steps and understanding how to access your Spotify stats, you'll be better equipped to make informed decisions about your podcasting strategy and create content that resonates with your audience.
