How Do I Use Song Rating Analytics?

Song Ratings allow users to vote on songs in the SoCast Premium Website Player (the Premium 1.0 Player is a bolt-on feature) and/or your mobile app when a song playlist is available.

You will need to enable 'song ratings' in the player general settings, we also suggest enabling the like and dislike buttons.
You will also need to enable song playlist in the mobile app settings (if you want to use with the app). 

Once users start voting on songs, under Player > Radio Stream Settings > Song Rating Analytics, you will see votes and overall score for the most recently played songs (example below)

This feature is meant to be used as a way to tell what your listeners want to hear, and is an excellent tool for new music releases.
