Hey Robert! To break it down the threshold before considering when to start monetizing your podcast, we suggest the following: 1. Publish episodes consistently for at least six months 2. Gain 500 downloads PER episode This depends on how frequently you are publishing, as long as you are consistently doing so for the whole six months, at least, and that you are hitting that 500 downloads per episode. If you do a weekly podcast and gain 500 downloads for each episode you produce every week, you might want to consider it the best time to do monetization after a month. Hope that helps! 😉
Absolutely, reaching 500 downloads takes time and patience. But stay focused on consistent content and marketing; growth and monetization will follow. You got this! 💪
Personally, I think the CPM model is very low. I am not gonna put a commercial in the middle of trial testimony to get paid $25 for every 1000 people that listen to it. It should be three times that amount. These sponsors are making bank. 🕵
How have you monetized your podcast?
Thanks so much for this info. You've answered the questions I've been wondering about!
Awesome! Happy to help, Vicki! Thank you.😊
My hosting service doesn't provide download stats. What should I do to find out that data!?
Hey Regina! You may check it on each of your directories' analytics. If you're on Apple Podcast, click on the Podcast Analytics button.
500 downloads ... in the first 7 days, 30 days or 90 days? Can you clarify that threshold please?
