Create an amazing website for your Blubrry podcast

Blubrry is affordable and easy to use

Starting at just $10/month, blubrry has the podcast hosting solution that is approachable for anyone starting a show. Blubrry’s main focus is on podcast hosting, but also includes a free WordPress site. The only downside is that WordPress does require development support and most podcasters won’t know how to properly code the WordPress site, though it is a valuable added feature. For those not interested in a full website, blubrry also offers a simple landing page option.

Blubrry’s main competitive advantage is their podcast statistics platform, where podcaters can analyze their listenership, trusting that the analytics are accurate, considering Blubrry has been doing this since 2007.

Discovering listener trends, audience retention data, impactful plays, and more helps podcasters position their shows for the future.

Ultimately, Blubrry is likely the best fit for WordPress-focused individuals with the development know-how to implement the plugins on their own website.

Why you should have a separate podcast website

It's critical for every podcast to have a real website. Having a website gives you a huge opportunity. Here are some of the benefits:

• You should own your relationship with your listeners
• Websites are universally accessible
• Many new listeners start with Google
• You should own the top spot on Google
• Generate traffic with the best SEO for podcasts practices
• If you own the top spot in Google, you’ll get more listeners through organic searches
• You should control how you introduce your show
• A website makes things simpler for your listeners
• A website gives you a place to post transcripts
• A website allows you to give listeners other ways to interact

The problem is, most podcast hosts (not just Blubrry), don't provide a web experience that accomplishes even half of what's on the list above. Most hosts don't offer the necessary podcast SEO tips that help your show thrive.

What core features do you get with a better website?
