Podcast Hosting

Overview

While a podcast is really nothing more than a packaged link to a web page with sound or video embedded into it the idea of setting up the page, embedding the content, and publishing it in one step is relatively new. A godaddy podcast hosting service or a “blogcast” as they have branded it has been around since 2006 about the time that the term became popular.

Why Use it?

Some could say that YouTube is a podcast hosting service minus the ability to upload sound bytes but then again a video file can hold sound bytes all the same. The main reason to use a hosting provider for hosting your podcasts is the simple fact that you won’t randomly have your content combed and changed while Google uses audible magic technology to find copyrighted content uploaded by you.
