Many podcasters use Libsyn and love it. Its definitely worth checking out.
Brad is that what you are currently spending with Amazon?
they are the best for hosting and providing stats. I really like the service.
Not yet. As the show has gotten more popular and as I've added more shows, which have their own audience, it fluctuates between $25 - $100. (depends mainly on what the audience is for that particular month).Originally Posted by andrewzarian
So I started looking at alternatives because I can see this getting out of hand at some point. It should be noted that several months ago I started adding video into the mix as well. Before I was content with just letting a free service like YouTube host it.
(side note) Before YT I was using Blip, but decided to move off of it early due to their myriad of changes... Plus, the shows hosted on Blip we canceled. I never moved our main show over there. (end side note)
So Over the last several months as I've been rethinking and trying to get a better workflow going, I've been changing up a lot of the things that I started with 3 years ago.
I would also say that stats are the driving factor. I have been using s3stats which isn't the laid out stats that I would like. They are more into giving you the raw numbers of hits, etc and I have to basically extrapolate conclusions myself.
If anyone has any specific questions about libsyn - please let me know - rob (at) libsyn (dot) com
Per the question of Libsyn or Amazon S3 - all I will say is look where Amazon actually hosts their podcasts
