ETS - SoundCloud - Request an Extension SoundCloud Account
This documents the current podcast recommendations for the Division of Extension.
Background
-
Soundcloud is the recommended hosting service for audio files and podcasts. You are able to embed SoundCloud files into your WordPress site by simply pasting in the SoundCloud file's URL.
-
Please note that Soundcloud's free service allows for a maximum of 6 hours of audio to be stored on their site. For more than that, you will need to purchase an annual license.
Please note that due to changes within SoundCloud's account structure, Extension is currently looking at other options for Podcast hosting. Please reach out directly to Tony Roman tony.roman@wisc.edu with any questions about Podcast hosting prior to completing this form.
