Tips during the claiming:
Please ensure that you have access to the email address displayed in your RSS feed, i.e., the email address inside the <itunes: email> tag. You can check it by visiting your RSS URL using Google Chrome or any other browser that can display RSS feeds.
If you don’t have access to the email address displayed in your RSS feed, you may want to update it by seeking support from your hosting provider.
Please note that it might take some time for us to get the newly updated email address in your RSS feed. Thus, you might need to try multiple times to claim your ownership.
Please contact your hosting provider for further assistance.
