Let’s break it down and, most importantly, let’s compare Blubrry side-by-side with other podcast hosting platforms.
What Makes Blubrry Stand Out?
Podcasting isn’t just about hitting record and hoping for the best. You need reliable hosting, in-depth stats, monetization options, and tools that make your life easier. That’s where Blubrry comes in.

No Limits, No Headaches
Ever heard of hosting platforms that cut you off after a certain number of episodes or downloads? Yeah, that’s frustrating. With Blubrry, there are no arbitrary cut-off limits—you can podcast freely without worrying about restrictions.
Other platforms might throttle your bandwidth or charge extra when your audience grows. We don’t. Whether you’re just starting out or have a massive listener base, we give you the freedom to podcast on your terms.
Podcast Statistics That Actually Matter
Data is everything when it comes to growing your show. However, not all analytics are created equal. Blubrry offers IAB-certified podcast statistics, which means the numbers you see are accurate, trustworthy, and accepted by advertisers.
Want to know where your listeners are tuning in from? Which episodes perform best? What platforms do they use? Blubrry’s analytics provide deep insights so you can make smart decisions about your content strategy.
Free WordPress Website with PowerPress
Unlike some podcast hosts that leave you to figure out your website on your own, Blubrry provides a free WordPress site with every hosting plan. And if you already have a site? Even better. Our PowerPress plugin makes it easy to integrate your podcast seamlessly.
Think of it this way: why build your audience on someone else’s platform (like social media or a free podcast host) when you can own your podcasting home? With Blubrry, your website is yours—no unexpected shutdowns, no ads slapped onto your content without your permission.
AI? No, Smart Podcasting Tools
Let’s be real—“AI tools” is a buzzword that gets thrown around a lot. What we offer are practical, time-saving AI podcasting tools designed to help you:
- Improve discoverability with automatic episode transcripts.
- Generate dynamic content to make your show more engaging.
- Optimize your workflow so you spend less time on busywork and more time creating.
These tools aren’t gimmicks—they’re built to help real podcasters, whether you’re running a passion project or a full-scale production.
Built by Podcasters, for Podcasters
Here’s something the big-name platforms won’t tell you: Many of them are run by large corporations more focused on their bottom line than on your podcast’s success. Blubrry? We’ve been around since 2005, and we’re run by podcasters who understand exactly what you need.
We’ve seen the podcasting industry evolve, and we’re committed to giving creators the best tools and support to thrive—without locking them into restrictive platforms or taking control of their content.
Thinking About Switching? Let’s Make It Easy
If you’re already hosting somewhere else but feel like you’re missing out, we’ve got you covered. Blubrry offers free migration, and we make the process smooth and stress-free. Plus, we’re offering a discount for podcasters switching to Blubrry—because making the right choice for your show shouldn’t come with a price tag.
So, why Blubrry? Because we’re here to help you own your podcast, understand your audience, and grow your show without limits.
