Creator Lab Marketplace Analytics Prefix Documentation

What is it

Creator Lab Marketplace is a platform for podcast creators to monetize their content. In order to properly compensate a podcast creator for their content, Creator Lab Marketplace's analytics prefix platform integrates directly with your podcast hosting provider so that Creator Lab Marketplace can know exactly how your podcast performs, and in return, help you capture the maximum value from our network of advertisers.

How to install

Creator Lab Marketplace's analytics prefix is the first point of entry when a listener goes to listen to your podcast. The prefix sits in front of your episode's download URL (MP3), and thus, each time a listen occurs, the Creator Lab Marketplace prefix logs the request for processing, so that the Creator Lab Marketplace platform knows how many listeners your podcast episodes receive. All major hosting providers have support for analytics prefixes.

The easiest way to get the Creator Lab Marketplace prefix installed on your podcast is by visiting your analytics settings page or by emailing your hosting provider with the following:

To: support@your-hosting-provider.com
Subject: Adding Audacy's Creator Lab Analytics Prefix
Message:
Hi Support,

I need to add the Analytics Prefix from Creator Lab (formerly Podcorn) to my podcast. The URL Prefix is
"https://pdcn.co/e/".
The documentation for this prefix is available here: https://creators.audacy.com/analytics-prefix/.

Thanks,
___
                

Once you email your hosting provider, they will take care of installing it for you, and the Creator Lab Marketplace platform will be automatically notified.

Performance

Creator Lab Marketplace is able to gather insights about your podcast's performance and analytics by adding a simple redirect to the podcast episodes in your RSS feed.

The listeners of your podcast will maintain the same exact seamless user experience, and your podcast will continue to be hosted on your existing hosting provider. Your users will not experience any noticeable delay, and episodes will continue to stream and download the exact same as they did before the prefix was installed.

The Creator Lab Marketplace prefix is supported by a globally distributed cloud infrastructure that supports blazing fast response times, and 99.9% uptime.
