Audioboom climbs rankings to 4th biggest podcast publisher in US

 

Audioboom (AIM: BOOM), the leading global podcast company, is pleased to announce that it is now ranked the fourth largest US podcast publisher based on the number of average weekly users according to Triton Digital's February 2021 Podcast Report.

 

Triton Digital rates podcast publishers based on unique audience reach as well as weekly downloads.  Audioboom averaged 3.8 million weekly users during the latest reporting period and moved above Cumulus Media/Westwood One and AdLarge/Cabana.

 

Audioboom continues to rank in fifth place on Triton's weekly downloads ranker.

 

Since joining Triton Digital's ranker in May 2020, the Company has added more than 1.5 million weekly users - an increase of 71%.

 

The Triton Digital reports only measure Audioboom's premium tier of podcasts that are monetised through high-value host endorsements. More than 8,000 additional podcast channels are published by Audioboom and are monetised by programmatic advertising or subscription payments.

 

Audioboom's CEO, Stuart Last, commented:  "Ranking as the fourth largest US podcast publisher is an incredible achievement for the Company, given the size and strength of our competitors. Our content-focused expansion strategy is working well, with our growth in early 2021 setting us up for a strong year ahead."
