PODCAST TOOL OF THE DAY

Craig Hewitt saw a gap in the market for a dedicated podcast hosting platform and created Castos in 2017. Initially, it started as a WordPress plugin named Seriously Simple Podcasting. However, he soon recognized that there was demand for an independent solution to host podcasts. Hence, Castos came into full operation in 2018 and has been catering to thousands of global podcasters since then. It is more than just a hosting service; Castos provides tools for audience growth and content monetization making it an ideal choice for brands focused on expansion.
