Latest news
- Jan 27: Buzzsprout is the best podcast hosting company, says TechRadar in a review that also gives special credit to Podbean, Libsyn, Captivate and Transistor.
- Jan 21: Wondering about using those AI-powered podcast description tools, that are offered by Buzzsprout, Blubrry, Ausha and others? It turns out that AI produces better SEO content, according to scientific research.
- Jan 6: iHeart’s consumer podcast host Spreaker published 13.5% of all new podcast episodes in December, according to Livewire - a record for the company, and an increase in share of 2.7x year-on-year. Its share was just 5% in December 2023, and it’s grown consistently since September. Spotify for Creators also saw an uplift to 24.4%; the #3 podcast host, Buzzsprout, saw a drop to 6.5%. Megaphone has also dropped year-on-year.
- Jan 2: In December, total overall podcast downloads on Buzzsprout were down 14% year-on-year. However, we’d not worry; both Spotify and Apple showed increases in download share; and we covered a few days ago that the total number of podcasts being updated is up 2.5% year-on-year. (And, if you’re getting plays on YouTube, or uploading video to Spotify, those plays never get back to your podcast host anyway.)
- Nov 25, 2024:
Podpage now supports “podroll” lists. A podroll, supported by podcast hosts like Buzzsprout, Blubrry, RSS
.com and Transistor, and by apps like Podcast Guru and Truefans, lets you recommend other shows to your listeners. Now, if it’s in your RSS feed, Podpage automatically creates a page for its pro users. Here’s the page for Ask The Podcast Coach. (Podnews podcast pages also support them).
