Not only can Backtracks Podcast Analytics tell you if that download resulted in a play, we collect an extraordinary depth of audio and listener data. Learn what's working and what's not in your podcast content and ads. Get an unfair advantage with the ultimate in podcast analytics. Data can be a beautiful thing.
