If you own a podcast then you must know that you can generate some income through podcasting.
Most of the income generate is going to be pure profit because there is hardly any overhead or starting and running costs associated with podcasting.
The most revenue will come through commercial sponsorship but it is also the toughest to achieve because first your podcasts have to be worthy of them.
This works just like any other forms of medium sponsorship and can lead to more than just pocket change.
With time you could get some huge corporations as your sponsors but that also means that podcasting in itself has to reach further than where it is now.
Donations are another way in which your podcasts can earn you money.
Including website links and other forms of advertisements will also generate revenue.
Google AdSense could be integrated into your website or blog and combined with podcasts to make money.
The biggest plus of podcasting is that no one is bound to listen or hear to your podcasts in case they do not have the time right now.
A podcast may be downloaded and then synchronized with any compatible media player and then played back when the user has time.
This freedom is the basis for all the appeal and popularity of podcasts.
More and more podcasts are now in video whereas previously they were restricted to audio only.
You will need to invest in a good microphone for the best recording quality and you may also need to learn some rudimentary audio editing techniques.
