The Best Alternative to Spreaker for Podcast Hosting
Have you outgrown Spreaker 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 Spreaker’s free and paid plans:
- They are tired of limited storage space
- Don’t want limits on the length of their episodes
- Want advanced analytics without paying a hefty monthly fee
💰 RSS.com Offers More Bang for the Buck
Many new podcasters initially choose Spreaker because they offer a free plan. However, whether you go with their free or paid options, you’ll find that the features are more limited than what RSS.com provides.
Spreaker’s paid plans range from $7 to $250 per month, with the $50/month plan required for advanced analytics. The free plan allows only five hours of audio, with no analytics or ad monetization.
Even with paid plans, storage is capped between 100 and 1,500 hours, and episode durations range from 45 minutes to 3 hours. For unlimited audio storage, you must subscribe to the $250/month Publisher plan, which includes monetization and advanced analytics.
In contrast, RSS.com provides unlimited episodes, downloads, and storage for $11.99/month when paid annually, along with advanced real-time analytics, distribution to major directories, and monetization options at every tier.
Spreaker offers several plans:
- Free: Limited access to basic features.
- On-Air Talent ($7/month): For beginners with limited storage.
- Broadcaster ($20/month): Mid-tier plan with more analytics.
- Anchorman ($50/month): Advanced statistics and collaboration tools.
- Publisher ($250/month): Includes dynamic ad insertion and monetization tools.
Unlike Spreaker, which limits storage on lower-tier plans, RSS.com provides unlimited storage across all pricing plans, allowing podcasters to scale without worrying about storage caps.
Spreaker’s higher-tier plans include dynamic ad insertion and monetization options, but these features are accessible only with the most expensive plans, whereas RSS.com offers multiple monetization options across all tiers.

“Starting anything these days is nerve wrecking. So when I made up my mind to start a podcast for my PR company, I knew I had to do the research. When I found RSS.com, I was surprised at how easy it was to set up my podcast. We were up and running the same day!”
