Back a while
ago we covered the advertising impact from a
research study, and fellow Weblogs Inc Network (WIN) blog The Unofficial Apple
Weblog (TUAW) reported on the audience size aspect
of the report. Now we have a blog post from the Geek
News Central blog that their numbers for the current podcasting audience size is way off. Geek News Central is getting
their counts from being involved with TechPodcasts.com network of podcasts
and Podcasternews.com as well as also several other sites that are using the
RawVoice Generator.
The post over there shows that if the Forrester Research report was correct that the numbers they have verified stats for would be a large percentage of the whole audience that the report says there is currently existing. Of course they know there are lot more other podcasts out there than they have the stats for, so they reach the conclusion the numbers from the report are way off.
1. Of course there are more listeners of podacasts than reported and this figure is growing everyday. After broadband internet comes in SOuth Asia and China it will increase all of a sudden.
