Your Podcast Interface

Earning Money


The Blubrry community offers podcasters a chance to earn money from their podcasts via advertisting deals. If you've worked hard to build your audience then you just might qualify for participation in one of our ad deals. It all starts with the Advertising Survey contained in the profile for your podcast. You can't have a chance to participate in ad deals until you've completed the survey for your podcast. Some important facts about Blubrry ad deals are as follows:

  • We can't guarantee you'll be offered a deal. That decision is completely up to the advertisers.

  • We have the right to negotiate one deal for you but you also have the right to reject the deal.

  • You get to keep 70% of the revenue from the deal. Compare that split with other podcast sponsorship offers.

  • Ad deals may include a mention in your podcast and an image link on your website.

  • There are no auto insertions. You retain the flexibility to mention the sponsor in your voice in each podcast.

  • We can provide pre-recorded sponsor announcements if you don't feel comfortable delivering the message yourself.

It's important to note that if you have existing relationships with advertisers that you can still benefit from the Blubrry advertising program. If you introduce us to an advertiser who ultimately goes forward with an ad deal on the community you will be paid a 10% finders fee just for making the introduction.

Building Your Audience


We've been working hard to create an environment where podcasters have a real opportunity to grow their audiences. We do this via a combination of features that are only found in the Blubrry community as follows:

  • We make it very easy for potential subscribers to find, subscribe to and share your podcast with others via our MyCast and Hot List features.

  • We allow you to enter unique tags for your channel and each episode so that users performing relevant searches can find your podcast.

  • We allow you to represent your brand by adding a channel image and a header image to each profile page.

  • We always provide links to your original podcast home page and RSS feed.

  • Your profile can link to iTunes , Odeo , Yahoo! Podcasts , Digg and Del.icio.us .

You can rest assured that your presence on Blubrry allows you to maintain your brand identity while your audience grows. And we don't believe that locking your podcast in our system will help your brand grow.
