Standard podcast hosting gives you a feed URL. You paste it into Apple Podcasts, and that's it. Listeners find you on Spotify or Apple — but not on your own website.
iRadeo is built for creators who also have a website, a blog, or an online store. You get everything a podcast host provides — RSS feed, directory distribution, audio storage — plus a fully embeddable HTML5 player you can drop onto any webpage with a single line of code.
Why this matters in 2026: Podcast listeners increasingly find new shows through website search, not just app stores. An embedded player keeps listeners on your site — where they can sign up, buy, or subscribe — rather than sending them away to a third-party app.
iRadeo is designed to be fast. No complex setup, no encoding software required.
Drag and drop MP3 files. iRadeo stores them securely on HTTPS and auto-reads ID3 tags for episode titles and artist info.
Add your show description, cover art (1400×1400px), category, and website URL. Your iTunes-compatible RSS feed is generated instantly.
Submit your feed URL to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon Music. Copy your embed code and paste it onto any page of your website.
iRadeo focuses on reliable hosting and a great listener experience — without charging for features most podcasters never use.
Your feed includes all required iTunes namespace fields: show title, description, artwork, categories, author, episode enclosures, and duration. Accepted by all major directories.
A lightweight, mobile-responsive audio player with customizable colors. One embed code, works on WordPress, Squarespace, Shopify, Wix, or raw HTML.
Match your player to your brand colors. Upload cover art. Your listeners see your identity — not iRadeo's.
Audio files are stored in the cloud and served over HTTPS. Apple Podcasts and Spotify require HTTPS — iRadeo handles this automatically.
Your RSS feed URL is formatted and ready for Apple Podcasts Connect, Spotify for Podcasters, Amazon Music, and other major platforms.
Your RSS feed URL stays consistent. If you ever move platforms, your subscribers follow automatically — no re-subscribing required.
Most podcast hosts are built only for audio directories. iRadeo adds the embeddable player that lets you own the listening experience on your own website.

When someone discovers your podcast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, they stay in those apps. You don't see who they are, you can't capture their email, and you can't convert them into customers.
An embedded player changes this. Paste one line of code onto your website, and your podcast lives there too — inside your blog post, your landing page, your product page. Listeners stay on your site. You can track them in Google Analytics. You can show them a newsletter form, a product, or a next step.
This is the model content creators are moving toward in 2026: own your audience, own your platform. iRadeo gives you the infrastructure to do both.
Embedded player example
Your player, your colors, on your page. One embed code.
Yes. Every iRadeo station on a paid plan automatically generates an iTunes-compatible RSS feed at a permanent URL — for example, iradeo.com/username/feed/station.xml. This feed can be submitted directly to Apple Podcasts Connect, Spotify for Podcasters, Amazon Music for Podcasters, and other directories. The feed includes all required fields: show title, description, artwork URL, category, author, language, episode enclosures, file sizes, durations, and GUIDs.
Yes. iRadeo generates a small HTML snippet (an embed code) that you paste into any website. It places a fully functional, mobile-responsive audio player on that page. You can choose the player color to match your site. The embed works on WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, Shopify, Webflow, or any platform that accepts HTML. No plugins or extensions are required.
iRadeo podcast hosting starts at $8/month for the Plus plan (10 GB storage). The Premium plan is $16/month (25 GB), and the Ultimate plan is $24/month (50 GB). All plans include the RSS feed, embeddable player, HTTPS audio delivery, and directory submission support. There are no per-episode fees and no listener limits. Every plan includes a 14-day free trial — no charge until day 15.
iRadeo provides the RSS feed that Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, and other directories require. You submit your unique feed URL once to each platform. After that, new episodes you upload to iRadeo appear in those directories automatically — typically within 24 hours for Apple Podcasts and 4 hours for Spotify.
iRadeo supports MP3 uploads. MP3 is the universally accepted format for podcast directories including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Amazon Music. Files are served over HTTPS, which is required by Apple Podcasts as of 2024. iRadeo automatically reads ID3 tags from your MP3 files for episode titles and artist information.
Podcast hosting refers to storing your audio files and generating the RSS feed that directories like Apple Podcasts use to list your show. A podcast player is the audio interface — the play/pause controls — that people interact with to listen to episodes. Most podcast hosts provide hosting only; the player is inside the Apple or Spotify app. iRadeo provides both: hosting (storage, RSS feed) and a standalone embeddable player you can put on any website, so people can listen directly on your pages without leaving.
iRadeo does not offer a permanently free plan, but all paid plans include a 14-day free trial with full access. No credit card processing occurs until day 15. If you cancel before day 15, you are not charged. This gives you two weeks to upload episodes, set up your RSS feed, submit to directories, and embed the player on your website before committing to a plan.
Yes, but migration requires a redirect step. Most podcast directories follow RSS 301 redirects, meaning you can point your old feed URL to your new iRadeo feed URL and subscribers transfer automatically. The exact process depends on your previous host. iRadeo's RSS feed URL is permanent and does not change when you upgrade or change plans.
Upload your first episode, get your RSS feed, and embed your player — all on the free trial.
