But with this particular topic, the data backed up our general thesis that <strong>you can run a podcast on no budget, <em>but only a particular kind of podcast<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For a zero-budget podcast to be successful, it would most likely need to be <strong>a solo show with an altruistic, hobbyist goal<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&rsquo;s break that down&hellip;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-1-a-solo-show\">1. A solo show<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In theory, solo shows are easiest to run for free. They don&rsquo;t rely on co-hosts, interview guests, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/recording-skills\/best-tools-for-recording-a-podcast-online\/\">remote recording software<\/a>, so they&rsquo;re much easier to squeeze into your free time and sustain as a hobby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was reflected in the survey, which showed that the majority of free podcasts (53%) are solo shows. This number dropped to 28% among those who spend under $50 and to 24% among those who spend more than $50\/month (where the interview format was much more popular).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>65% of the &lsquo;free&rsquo; group also said they get no help with running their show, compared to just 35% of the $50+ group.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-2-a-show-with-an-altruistic-goal\">2. A show <strong>with an altruistic goal <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One surprising thing: not spending any money running a podcast doesn&rsquo;t seem to have any impact on whether respondents achieve their goals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>71% of the &lsquo;free&rsquo; group said they&rsquo;re still achieving at least some of their podcast goals. 72% of the sub-$50 group said they were, and 80% of those who spend $50+.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If I&rsquo;m honest, I was expecting to see far fewer podcasters in the &lsquo;free&rsquo; group achieving their goals, so this was initially quite surprising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But of course, this also has a lot to do with the goals themselves and what &lsquo;success&rsquo; looks like to those creators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regardless of whether podcasters spend money on producing their show, the top 3 goals remained the same: supporting others, personal enjoyment, and raising awareness about a topic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ultimate-goal-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"What's the ultimate goal of your podcast? \n\nHelp, support, or motivate others &ndash; 31%\nPersonal enjoyment\/creative outlet &ndash; 20%\nRaise awareness about a cause or topic &ndash; 12%\nEstablish a main income source &ndash; 11%\nDevelop or promote a business\/brand &ndash; 10%\nBuild my authority on a topic &ndash; 8%\nCreate a side hustle &ndash; 4%\nLearn or achieve personal growth &ndash; 3%\nOther &ndash; 2%\" class=\"wp-image-62721\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ultimate-goal-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ultimate-goal-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ultimate-goal-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ultimate-goal-350x197.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ultimate-goal-445x251.jpg 445w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ultimate-goal-580x327.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ultimate-goal-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/ultimate-goal.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>However, revenue-related goals (particularly &lsquo;to develop or promote a brand or business&rsquo;) were more common among those who spend monthly on their podcast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-3-a-hobby-project\">3.

Only 5% of respondents who make a podcast on no budget reported making any money from their podcast. This climbed to 16% in the sub-$50 and 26% in those who spend over $100 a month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, just 15% of all of those who took our survey said their podcast makes money. 85% don&rsquo;t.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/85-dont-monetise-1024x577.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-62492\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/85-dont-monetise-1024x577.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/85-dont-monetise-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/85-dont-monetise-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/85-dont-monetise-350x197.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/85-dont-monetise-445x251.jpg 445w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/85-dont-monetise-580x327.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/85-dont-monetise-700x394.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/85-dont-monetise.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-but-free-podcasts-come-with-limitations\">BUT Free Podcasts Come With Limitations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>So clearly, it is possible to run a successful podcast on no budget. However, not only do you have to be prepared to be limited to a particular type of show, but free shows come with some other limitations, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-free-podcasts-are-harder-to-grow\">Free podcasts are harder to grow<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If there&rsquo;s one really clear takeaway regarding the &lsquo;success&rsquo; of those shows that run on no money, it&rsquo;s that, unsurprisingly, they&rsquo;re harder to achieve substantial growth with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>68% of respondents who told us they spend no money producing their podcasts get under 50 downloads per episode in the first week. To be clear: there&rsquo;s absolutely nothing wrong with a podcast that gets under 50 downloads per episode &ndash; in fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/business-of-podcasting\/27-downloads\/\">it&rsquo;s a marker of success for most shows<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But there&rsquo;s an undeniable trend. <strong>Download numbers climb the more creators financially invest in their shows.<\/strong> Only 24% of those who spend $100+ get less than 50 downloads per ep.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-free-podcasts-can-be-hard-to-sustain\">Free podcasts can be hard to sustain<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing I noticed when looking into the data was that 44% of those who create their podcast at no cost have <strong>only been running their podcast for less than a year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This number drops to 33% of sub-$50 and 22% of $50+. Perhaps creators begin their podcasting journey on no budget, but over time, they spend more as their show grows and their needs become more complex.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, you might take from this that the more you invest in your podcast, the more likely you are to stick it out. Or at least, when you start putting money into it each month, you&rsquo;re more inclined to show up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which takes me to my final point&hellip;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-spending-keeps-you-accountable\">Spending keeps you accountable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>This example might not ring true to everyone, but hear me out. If I&rsquo;m paying for a gym membership, I&rsquo;m likely to make more of an effort to go regularly than if I had free access. There&rsquo;s just less motivation there to make the effort when I&rsquo;m not concerned about getting my money&rsquo;s worth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The same idea can be applied to podcasting. Our data suggests that those who have an allocated budget for their show tend to put a bit more into the production, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, there&rsquo;s a correlation between money spent and time spent. You&rsquo;d be forgiven for thinking that spending money = less need to spend time. But according to our data, the opposite seems to be true.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>12% of podcasters who spend nothing on their shows say they spend less than an hour on each episode. It is hard to imagine creating strong content in under 60 minutes, yet many report doing so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the other end of the scale, 19% of those who invest more than $100 per month spend over ten hours producing each episode.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Financial investment also seems to influence how consistently podcasters release new content. <strong>16% of those in the free group have no fixed schedule<\/strong>, compared with 10% of the sub-$50 group and just 4% of those spending $50 or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Listeners value consistency, and irregular publishing inevitably affects engagement. Still, it is easy to see why those who podcast for free struggle to maintain a routine.
