Podcast Categories

Podcast categories and sub-categories are used by Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other directories to categorize and organize your podcast show by topic. Categories help your show to be discovered by listeners that may be interested in a specific category. Another benefit is that each category in Apple Podcasts has a top chart section that your show may become eligible for.

You can select up to 3 top-level categories and sub-categories for your show. Only one is required but we recommend you select all 3 to improve the discoverability of your show. Here is the complete list of Apple Podcast categories.
