It's become very apparent that getting discovered as a Podcaster is more difficult than ever. The Walled Gardens do not provide proper syndication, they force self-censoring, they give Podcasters only a menial portion of the earnings and bury them in search results.
CastGarden (https://Cast.Garden) is solving those issues. By syndicating podcasts across multiple websites, apps and networks such as the Fediverse, Blockchains, Nostr, Torrent sites and RSS, Podcasters reach Millions of additional people which equates to an active comment section, hence more shares, more views/listens and in turn, more income. Syndication and user-engagement are everything:
Syndication to the Fediverse network (~10 Million users and growing)
The Fediverse (think Mastodon, Peertube, Pixelfed, Funkwhale, etc) is a growing network of independent, decentralized servers and enables those hosts to syndicate (re-stream) your podcasts, similar to how radio stations do it in cities across the planet.
Syndication to, and Monetization from Blockchains (~6 Million users and growing)
Blockchains like Hive, Bitcoin (Nostr), Dero and others provide SocialFi communities where podcasts become discoverable and monetizable. Blockchains are growing fast as they eliminate the censors and banks who have traditionally been able to destroy a Podcaster’s income.
Syndication via RSS (Unlimited users and growing)
User-Engagement
“Podcasters are sick of being constrained in the walled gardens, self-censoring and selling out to advertisers.” says Lead Dev at CastGarden, Ken Code. “Through syndication and igniting the comment section through multiple networks, it results in more shares, more listens and in-turn more income for everyone, even the audience. User-engagement is everything.”
