Simplecast Embedded Audio Players
An Embedded Audio Player is the preferred way to display an episode on your show website. Here are a few advantages:
It's easy to generate from the platform where your show is hosted (such as Simplecast).
It gives a visually-appealing preview of an episode.
It's generated with an embed code that can easily fit into your website ecosystem, including blogs.
It communicates with Simplecast's backend when someone hits the play button. Which means each 'listen' can be accounted for.
This embed player can be generated before an episode goes live, which allows for flexibility in scheduling content for the podcast website.
You can use the 'Custom Color' option to sync your player with the website's color scheme.
Below are a few examples of different templates, styles and designs offered by Simplecast. Once you lock-in an option, stick with it throughout the season to make your show website look consistent. (The examples are of the trailer of the show For The Love Of Work. The code used in the custom color is: A280FD )
