How do I move from Libsyn to Buzzsprout?

You can move your show's hosting from Libsyn to Buzzsprout while keeping your existing episodes, listings, and listeners! We'll walk you through the process here. 

Prepare Your New Buzzsprout RSS Feed

Start by signing up and setting up your Buzzsprout account. This will generate your new RSS feed, which you'll use to update podcast directories. We’ve laid out the full process in our guide about moving your podcast to Buzzsprout, but reach out to us at support@buzzsprout.com if you have any questions along the way!   

Redirect your Libsyn RSS Feed

Once you've set up your Buzzsprout account, including copying over your existing episodes, the last step will be to redirect your Libsyn RSS feed. This allows you to keep your existing listings and followers. Here's how:

  1. In Libsyn, click the Settings icon in the top right of the page and select Advanced Tools. CleanShot 2025-06-04 at 15.14.47@2x.png

  4. Paste that Buzzsprout RSS Feed back into Libsyn's Feed Redirect URL field, and press Save. CleanShot 2025-06-04 at 12.25.33@2x.png
Now your redirect is in place! 🎉

We recommend keeping your Libsyn account active for two weeks to make sure all your listings and subscribers are redirected. You'll post all new episodes and updates in Buzzsprout, and they will show on your listings! 

Analytics from Libsyn

You'll notice that your existing analytics from your Libsyn account don't transfer over to Buzzsprout automatically. Because of this, we recommend saving your stats from your Stats page on Libsyn. Note: Libsyn's $5 plan won't allow you to see or save analytics. 

Pro Tip: You can manually add your episode totals to Buzzsprout by following the process here: Import Stats When Moving to Buzzsprout
