Audioboom climbs global podcast publisher rankings

 

Audioboom (AIM: BOOM), the leading global podcast company, is pleased to
announce that, according to Triton Digital's April 2022 Podcast Reports, it is
now ranked as the fourth largest US podcast publisher based on both the number
of average weekly downloads and average weekly users. Additionally, Audioboom
is now the second largest publisher in New Zealand based on both the number of
monthly listeners and monthly downloads.

 

In the US, Audioboom averaged 21.6 million downloads per week during April and
moved into fourth position.

 

In New Zealand, Audioboom moved into second position. Additionally, in the
Triton Digital April reports, Audioboom ranked third in Australia and fourth
in Canada, highlighting the global scale the Company has developed.

 

Audioboom has continued to outperform its competitors over the last twelve
months in the Triton Digital Podcast Reports. Triton's US report highlights
Audioboom's 80% growth in weekly downloads between April 2021 and April 2022 -
during the same period the top 10 publishers, excluding Audioboom, grew at
30%.

 

 

Audioboom's CEO, Stuart Last, commented: "The Triton Digital Podcast Reports
highlight Audioboom's position as a leading global podcast publisher. We are
the number one independent publisher and the number one pure-play podcasting
company across many territories, growing significantly faster than our
competitors. I am delighted that we are delivering on our mission to help our
creators grow passionate and engaged audiences around the world."
