What is podcast hosting? *Collapse* Podcast hosting is a service provided by a podcast platform like Captivate that allows you to upload your podcast episodes and that will distribute them to all podcast listening apps by generating something called an "RSS feed". A podcast hosting platform also measures your podcast downloads and reports back to you using "podcast analytics". Good podcast hosting platforms give you full, in-depth data without it being hidden behind upgrades and *great* podcast hosting platforms give you extra tools included at no extra cost. Do I need a podcast platform? *Expand* You could hop in a time machine to 2005 and hand code your RSS feed using something called XML. But, who wants to do that? A podcast platform does all of the hard work for you in generating your podcast feed and a *good* podcast platform does even more than that, by giving you extra tools such as podcast marketing tools, podcast growth tools and podcast monetization tools. Do your research on the best podcast platform for you and make sure you're getting the biggest bang for your buck! Can I host unlimited podcasts for one fixed monthly cost? *Expand* Yes! Captivate plans come with the ability to host multiple podcasts under one account. There are no limits on uploads or storage, and no features are off-limits. The only thing you pay for is downloads, which start at a massive 30,000 for $17/month (or equivalent GBP/EUR). If you go over your monthly limit, we'll never upgrade your plan without speaking to you first. How easy is it to start a podcast? *Expand* Starting a podcast is an exciting time for any creator! Creating a show on Captivate takes minutes and is fully guided. If you need help designing and building your podcast, we have created the world's best, easiest-to-use podcasting course, too - and it's all free. Need accountability or personal help? We also hold weekly office hours in our Facebook community to help answer any of your launch-related questions! Will I lose my listeners if I switch my show to Captivate? *Expand* You can! It takes minutes to import your podcast to Captivate from another host and you won't lost any listeners at all! Can I import download analytics from another host? *Expand* Yes! Captivate is one of the only hosting platforms that allows this and certainly the host that allows for the most comprehensive data imports within the industry. Oh, and it takes moments... Will I have to pay more for "advanced" features? *Expand* Absolutely not. We believe that every single creator should have access to "advanced" tools regardless of the size of their podcast and regardless of whether they're a "big customer" or not. One of our core tenets is to democratize access to growth & monetization features that have been historically reserved for "big podcasts". What is different about Captivate? *Expand* We built Captivate because we're podcasters and didn't like the tools on the market. We'd still be podcasters even without Captivate, albeit frustrated ones! Our team has collectively produced over 3,000 podcast episodes since 2013 and they have made money from podcasting and grown audiences & brands around their podcasts. We're serious creators just like you. We didn't get into the podcast hosting industry because we saw money coming into it, we were already in it! Ask around about our founders, you'll find that out for yourself. That's why Captivate has built such a range of unique tools for you, the serious creator: because we *are* you - we've had to use the tools that you've been using and we've built a suite of solutions that remove the hassle, save time and money and integrate everything into one single podcast management system. We've bundled up some of our unique features into something that we call the *Captivate Creator Suite* and we've included it for free on every single plan, regardless of the plan price. ## Just starting out or are you a podcast veteran looking for modern podcast hosting? We got you. Captivate's support team is known in the industry as the very best. Seriously, ask around. Why? Because we've been doing this since 2013 and we're all podcasters who were podcasting before Captivate existed. We'll never make you feel silly, undervalued or like you're not being heard. We promise. Start Your Free Trial We service every single timezone on the planet and our support team is available almost 24/7. Free for 14-days. ## How to Start a Podcast: Launch, Attract Your First 100 Listeners & Cover Costs - No Jargon!! Still not launched your podcast? It can be hard, especially if you feel like you're doing it on your own. Our co-founder, Mark, has produced over 1,400 podcast episodes since 2013; we've taken all of that experience and created the best podcasting course in the world that covers ideation, the tech, what to talk about and how to execute a successful podcast launch. Best of all: **it's free**, it has **a workbook** and we run **weekly accountability** office hours just for you.
