Ads and sponsorships

A podcast advertising marketplace; eligibility and hosting or delivery requirements depend on the campaign and program.

Who it is for

Mid to large shows that want to sell their own ad inventory directly and need real numbers to back up their rate card.

Who it is not for

Brand new shows under a few thousand downloads an episode, most buyers on the platform skip past very small shows.

Starting price

Free to list, revenue share on booked ads

The gotcha

Getting listed doesn't mean advertisers will find you, you still need a real audience and a decent rate card to close deals.

AdvertiseCast now operates under the Libsyn Ads name. It connects podcast publishers and advertisers through managed advertising services.

For a podcaster, it is a potential sales channel rather than a hosting replacement. Availability of campaigns and commercial terms should be established directly before relying on revenue.

An advertiser marketplace does not guarantee that a particular show will receive offers. Keep expectations tied to actual audience fit and agreed terms.
