hosting\u2019s biggest limitation is the downloads restriction. You need to upgrade once you hit the download limit of your current plan. In their Starter plan (priced at $19\/month), the monthly downloads limit is 20,000\/month.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once a podcaster exceeds it, they need to upgrade to the professional plan (priced at $49\/month) which has a monthly downloads limit of 100,000\/month. Once your podcast crosses this limit, you\u2019ll need to upgrade to the Business plan (priced at $99\/month) which has a monthly limit of 250,000.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Beyond that, you\u2019ll need a custom plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Limitations on downloads can cause issues for podcasters who are getting reach and building their audience but have budget constraints and can\u2019t upgrade their podcast hosting software. Podcasters can also feel they want to use their money in other ways.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It can be to make their podcast production better or hire more people. In that case, you need a hosting platform that has no limits on downloads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re hosting your podcast for free or chose a paid plan, you\u2019ll get unlimited downloads. At Hubhopper, we believe in your success and don\u2019t want to put limitations on it. Plus, you can host unlimited podcasts on Hubhopper. Create as many podcasts as you desire and never worry about whether you\u2019re exceeding the download limit.
