The following rates, which are denoted as cost per thousand or CPM, are published monthly by Libsyn’s AdvertiseCast, the industry’s premier podcast advertising marketplace that connects advertisers with podcasters. The Company releases the figures to empower the podcaster and advertiser communities to readily monitor market pricing and provide greater insight into podcasting advertising as a monetization vehicle.

For November 2022, the average CPM rate was $24.76 for a 60-second ad spot. That figure is slightly up compared to last month (October 2022 avg. CPM rate: $23.98) and has increased year-over-year (November 2021 avg. CPM rate: $23.21) by just over 6%.

The three highest CPM categories in November based on delivered advertising were:
