Where Do We Publish This Podcast?

Podcasting, being such a unique format, is not the type of thing that you publish just anywhere. Here's some detail on places we can publish your content. LibSyn. Short for Liberated Syndication, LibSyn is a dedicated podcast hosting service and the preferred choice of Ursa Minor Audio. LibSyn provides reliable service and fantastic download statistics. LibSyn is not without it's faults, but it provides great valuable for small scale podcasting. BluBrry. A similar service to LibSyn, this hosting is configured to integrate with WordPress, which makes it a great option if your website is built in WordPress, but this is not the only way BluBrry can be used. BluBrry is great for podcasters hoping for a large audience. They have distribution and advertising (i.e. income) options available for podcasters with large download numbers. Amazon Web Services. A highly reliable and incredibly scalable platform. There's a good chance you're using their services online without even knowing it. Hosting your podcast with Amazon will not trouble their bandwidth, but they have a slightly different pricing platform to LibSyn and BluBrry. Amazon is by far the biggest provider in this list, but others are designed for podcasting, while Amazon is more generic. Your website. The least preferred location. Ultimately the content will be advertised on your website, but that doesn't mean we have to host it there. Given the size of the media and the (hopefully large) amount of downloads you will receive, it's better to let a third party handle the media downloads so it doesn't affect your bandwidth. A thousand more. There's a multitude of podcast hosting solutions, all with various pros and cons. Many charge and many others are free. If you find one that best suits your needs then use it, but be aware that quality often comes at a price. There's a huge variety of places to host your media for fast and easy access. Dedicated podcast hosting allows your media to be stored by a third party and to be distributed and advertised on your website. Some quick research will help you find the hosting solution that works best for you.
