If you have a product or service that you want to promote or
inform others about, you should consider podcasting:
We cater for both audio and video podcasting (vodcasting).
All you need to do is upload your mp3/m4v files to our servers,
enter a few details about your content and add a link to your
website and we will do the rest:
- Publish your content with an RSS file that references the content, in order that new files are recognised by listeners/viewers downloads and synchronises them to their media player when they next log their mobile media player on.
- Upload your files onto our own internet servers so that listeners/viewers can download the file onto their mobile device
- Host your podcast on our internet servers for you - storing your audio and video podcasts.
When your listener/viewer logs onto your website, they will
see a list of of your audio or video podcasts sorted by date
which they can download to their computers or mobile media
device. They can then listen to your podcast at any time,
whenever and wherever they choose. You now have an effective
and convenient way to get your message out.

Podcasting statistics are available as an optional service
to help you identify whether you are reaching your target
audience and meeting your objectives through podcasting.

"Podcasting" is the combination of two words: "iPod"
and "broadcasting."
It describes the distribution of archived audio/video/text/image/multimedia
files via the internet. The files can be downloaded to your
computer and then transferred onto any mobile media device,
such as an mp3 player, ipod or mobile phone to be played whenever
and wherever you want. (At this moment in time, you cannot
podcast live events.)
Multimedia files are transferred from a server to a listener/viewer
who subscribes to an XML feed which lists the latest files
containing the internet address of the media files.
Example Podcasts:
- Music videos
- Radio programmes
- News & media reports
- Advertising clips
- Sports & recreation
- Education tutorials
- Film trailers
- Interviews with celebrities
- Individuals promoting regular programmes about work/holiday/hobbies
Subscribing to podcasts/downloading podcasts
To subscribe to and receive podcasts you use a software program
called a podcatcher. Once subscribed, the podcatcher periodically
checks for and downloads new content automatically onto your
computer and is synchronized to your mobile media player device
when you plug it into your computer. No need for you to frequently
check to see if updates are available. Itunes is one of the
most globally well known podcatchers at the moment, but there
are many more.
The beauty of the podcast is that you can listen/watch programmes
whenever you want and wherever you want: on the way to work,
at the gym, on holiday, at home, they are totally mobile.

The cost of podcasting services varies depending upon:
- The length of the podcast/number of podcasts
- The number of users that are likely to download the podcast/s
Example Basic Plan:
1Gb storage, 20Gb data transfer (about 2500 audio downloads)
= £20 per month
