If you’re just starting to evaluate podcast hosting options, it can be overwhelming. For B2B marketers, choosing a platform goes beyond table-stakes features like audio quality, editing options, and publishing integrations. You’re also looking at B2B-specific capabilities that can help you do your job more efficiently and effectively.
Here are the most important features to look for:
One of the best ways to get sustainable ROI from your podcast efforts is to repurpose your podcast into other forms of content. Every episode is full of unique insights. If you’re not repurposing them into other formats like blog posts, social media snippets, videos with text overlay—you’re leaving a lot of value on the table.
Look for platforms that support these tactics and help you easily integrate your podcast into your broader content marketing strategy.
Today, martech is moving at the speed of light. ⚡ There’s more pressure than ever for marketers to increase efficiency. Move that efficiency needle by designing a content flywheel that starts with long-form media—like a video podcast—that you can effortlessly spin into other formats.
Goldcast Recording Studio helps you do just that. You can record and edit high-quality audio and video right in the platform. Then, publish your content across a wide range of platforms, including podcast streaming sites, YouTube, social channels, and more.

Here are answers to some common questions about B2B podcast platforms.
Yes, you can host your podcast on your website, but it’ll require some tech-savvy setup like integrating a podcast plugin or using a CMS with a podcast host, like Wordpress. Many podcasters find it easier to use a dedicated hosting platform to ensure smooth distribution and optimal performance.
Yes, there are free podcast platforms that let you upload and share episodes without spending a dime. However, free options often come with trade-offs, like limited analytics or unavoidable ads. Paid plans come with more flexibility.
The choice between upload- or download-based pricing depends on your podcast strategy. Download-based fees are based on the number of listens your podcast gets, reflecting audience engagement. Upload-based fees are based on the size of the files you upload, so if your podcast includes large files, you might need to look into this route for more bandwidth.
Getting your podcast on major platforms like Spotify and Apple is straightforward. Just submit your podcast’s RSS feed to each platform. Alternately, most podcast hosting tools allow you to automatically add new podcast episodes without manually submitting your feed to each site.
Publishing your podcast involves recording episodes, editing them, and uploading to a hosting platform. The host generates an RSS feed, distributing your podcast to directories like Apple Podcasts and Spotify. You can choose to publish immediately or schedule episodes for future release.
Video podcasts are an engaging mix of audio and visual content. They might include recorded interviews, live events, or scripted shows. They offer a richer experience for those who enjoy watching as well as listening.
