The Best Alternative to Buzzsprout for Podcast Hosting

Have you outgrown Buzzsprout and are ready to move to a podcast hosting platform where you have more control of your show?

Here are just a few reasons podcasters choose RSS.com over Buzzsprout’s free and paid plans:

💰 RSS.com Offers More Bang for the Buck

Many new podcasters initially choose Buzzsprout because they offer a free plan.

However, those that get serious about podcasting find that the monthly audio time limit of two hours isn’t enough. Also, episodes only get hosted for 90 days with Buzzsprout’s free plan.

No one wants to have episodes they put time and effort into deleted! 😤

We think you’ll find that you get more value for your money with the RSS Podcaster option. The three paid plans on Buzzsprout range from $12-$24 per month, with no opportunity for discounted annual billing.

Buzzsprout also limits your available audio hours and makes you pay extra for additional time. With RSS.com, both the quantity and duration of your podcast episodes are unlimited.

💡 RSS.com also provides more bandwidth each month, meaning that more people can download and listen to your podcast. Buzzsprout places a 250 MB monthly bandwidth limit on all plans, which is the equivalent of approximately 20,000 downloads. In contrast, RSS.com provides unlimited bandwidth allowing you to focus on the needs of your audience and show.

We think you’ll find that after reviewing our side-by-side comparison table below, we’re still the better option for most podcasters.
