Revenue ideas for podcasts

[Christopher Gee]

Hey all,

My name is Chris Gee and I run a blog called "The Prepared Mind" and
podcast by the same name. I started podcasting for fun but now my
podcasts, which run about 1 hour in length and weigh-in at about
15MB, are taking up quite a bit of space on my server and will
eventually push my hosting bandwidth limitations over.

In other words, it's going to start costing me money soon. I've
thought about Google Ad Sense but far more people syndicate my
podcast via apps like iTunes than come to my site. Perhaps a sponsor
is the way to go?

What do you guys currently do? Anyone making money or defraying costs
associated with their podcasts?

Thanks!

You may want to check out libsyn.com $5 hosting -
unlimited bandwidth, they limit your storage to 100mb
for that and I think they archive for you

You may also want to try my hosting agent: www.lunarpages.com.

With the $7.95 "Shuttle" plan (which has some discounts for paying for a
year in advance) you get 100 GB/month bandwidth, up to 3GB storage, and a
lot of other options. Highly rated, excellent uptime, and great service...
