Monetize Your Podcast Instantly – No Matter Your Audience Size – With Blubrry’s Programmatic Advertising

At Blubrry Podcasting, we believe every podcaster deserves a shot at monetization, no matter their download count or subscriber base. That’s why we offer programmatic advertising designed to help any podcaster – from hobbyist to pro – start earning revenue right away.

Whether your show has a loyal following of 100 or 100,000, our platform allows you to begin monetizing as soon as your podcast is approved, with no minimum audience requirement. You stay in control by selecting the types of ads you’re comfortable including on your show, ensuring brand safety and listener trust.

“Maintaining and building credibility is paramount to our customers when it comes to advertising within their podcast,” says Todd Cochrane, Blubrry’s founder and CEO. “That is why we provide programmatic ads that are geo- and topic-specific, while at the same time excluding some ad categories by default that audiences may object to.”
