Internet radio hosting, managed from first song to full station

Internet radio hosting is more than a stream URL. A workable station needs a place to store music, automation that can fill the gaps between live shows, a way for DJs to take over, and enough delivery capacity for real listeners. When those pieces live in separate services, programming a station becomes a maintenance job.

Radiocast combines those day-to-day jobs in a managed station workflow. Upload a library, build rotations and scheduled playlists, configure your live DJs, and keep an eye on listeners from the same platform. You can also use station pages, embeddable players, and optional directory listing to give listeners a reliable place to find the stream.

The right hosting plan starts with three practical numbers: your peak simultaneous listeners, the size of the music library you want available to AutoDJ, and the bitrate or formats you need to serve. Radiocast publishes concurrent listener caps rather than charging around total listening hours, so you can match a plan to your expected audience without decoding an opaque usage model.

Professional is designed for a first serious station: 10GB of storage, up to 100 listeners, five DJ accounts, and AutoDJ. Small Business adds 50GB, up to 200 listeners, unlimited DJ accounts, and live HTTP streaming. Higher tiers increase storage and listener capacity, while Enterprise and Reseller are available for larger or multi-station operations.

A schedule should not fail when a host is late, a show ends early, or nobody is available overnight. Use AutoDJ for music rotations, jingles, recurring programming, and scheduled inserts, then let a live DJ take over when it is showtime. The goal is not to replace presenters; it is to make the handoff between programmed and live radio feel dependable.

Radiocast also includes analytics, multiple mounts on eligible plans, geo and IP rules, backups, monitoring, and DDoS protection. Those details matter when a station moves from a hobby project to an audience-facing product: they let you focus on what plays next instead of rebuilding infrastructure after each new requirement.
