Latest news
- Mar 5: Congratulations to iHeart’s Spreaker, Voxnest and Triton Digital, as well as Audiorella, who all achieved IAB Podcast Measurement Guideline v2.2 compliance today. iHeart’s Omny Studio gained certification at the end of last month. That means that IAB certification is now up to date for all major participating podcast hosts. Spotify for Creators stopped participating in Apr 2024, though Spotify’s enterprise host Megaphone recertified in Aug 2024.
- Feb 28: Other Triton Digital platforms (Triton Digital itself, Voxnest and Speaker) remain at v2.1, and have not been recertified in the last three years. The IAB Tech Lab repeatedly tells us that annual recertification is still a requirement.
- Feb 12: The IAB Tech Lab repeatedly tells us that annual recertification remains a requirement, yet iHeart’s Voxnest, Spreaker and Omny Studio were last certified in 2021; and iHeart’s Triton Digital has not recertified since 2022. (Apple, Spotify and YouTube have never certified).
- Nov 14, 2024: BlogTalkRadio is to close on Jan 31. One of the earliest podcast and live-streaming hosts, it launched in January 2006. It merged with Spreaker in August 2017; Voxnest bought Spreaker in 2018; iHeart bought Voxnest in 2020. Most recently it’s been part of Triton Digital. In August this year, it hosted 3,293 podcasts.
- May 6, 2021: In the US, iHeartMedia has launched its own Private Marketplace, allowing advertisers to buy shows across the iHeartPodcast Network. Using Voxnest, it allows geo-targeting and "psychographic" targeting (only want "intrepid" listeners? Or "conquerors"?) We wonder if it can also target people who've had their first COVID-19 vaccination and are feeling a bit sleept.
