Audioboom Achieves Record Global Audience Reach
Audioboom (AIM: BOOM), the leading global podcast company, is pleased to announce it achieved record audience reach in January 2024 through the continued growth of its podcast network.
In January, podcasts on the Audioboom Creator Network were downloaded by more than 38.6 million unique listeners worldwide, a new monthly record and more than 9% up on Q4 2023's monthly average (34.4 million).
Audioboom's audience growth follows the successful launch of new podcasts in the Audioboom Creator Network including Matt & Shane's Secret Podcast and The Why Files, which debuted in the latest Triton Digital podcast ranker at number 76, along with Audioboom Studios production National Park After Dark which debuted at 92.
The Company will continue to bring new top tier podcasts with strong audiences to the platform in 2024.
In the US, Audioboom remains the fifth largest podcast publisher on the Triton Digital ranker - now just 100k listeners behind American radio giant Audacy. We continue to grow faster than our competitors - the Company is now 1.5 million weekly listeners behind third place Wondery. In the January 2023 ranker the gap to third place was 2.5 million.
Audioboom's CEO, Stuart Last, commented: "Listeners continue to flock to podcasting and we are doing an incredible job of growing the Audioboom Creator Network audience faster than our competitors. We are developing true global audience scale - key to providing our brand partners with powerful, targeted advertising options to capture the full value of podcasting for our creators."
