Answer by podcast expert

I have done affiliate links in the past. I have also used Podcorn, which I am still open to, but if your podcast is not big enough can make it really difficult. But as mentioned, I have used World Podcast Network to run ads on my podcast, play music and do the host-read ads.

I dont know, my problem is I am a creative so the art is more important than the money. Honestly, I dont know how I want to move this forward. I don't want the adverts to break up the flow. Not sure my listeners would appreciate it and I'm not sure I get the numbers to make it worthwhile... BUt when I purchase some new equipment I do wish I had a easy answer ;-)

Answer by podcast expert

My podcasting experience since 2021 has taught me an important lesson: Many think that monetization is the top reason for doing podcasts. If this is how you think, I can predict you will end up feeling disappointed because making sufficient money for a living from podcasting is extremely difficult. I have learned that the top reason for doing podcasts at all is the podcaster\'s passion for communicating with their intended audience. Your goal, in my experience, should be to win over members of your intended audience instead of focusing upon making money from your podcasting endeavors.
