What mowPod is

mowPod is a web-based platform for promoting podcasts and YouTube channels through paid campaigns, alongside tools for tracking podcast rankings. Its Boost campaign flow starts with an RSS feed and an episode; the campaign creator then enters a budget and edits the ad title and description. Boost says it delivers IAB 2.0 compliant downloads from websites. Campaigns can target geography, age, interests, and device across websites and mobile apps. Reporting covers impressions, downloads, geographic and device breakdowns, and engagement. Boost statistics are available after an approximately two-hour delay, or through the podcast hosting platform.

The product range also includes Follow, which promotes Apple Podcasts and Spotify listens and followers through click-to-lander native display ads, and Pro, which offers 20-minute listens on Apple or Spotify, in-episode surveys, demographic and sentiment breakdowns, and email opt-in capture. View promotes YouTube views and subscribers with advanced targeting and in-platform results. mowPod Charts displays current and historical Apple Podcasts and Spotify rankings; visitors can explore without logging in, with optional email alerts. The site lists a free plan and a Boost charge of $0.90, paid once. Boost’s total charge is the entered campaign budget; its example shows $100 and 111 downloads. A free demo is available.

Who it suits

mowPod suits podcasters and channel owners seeking paid promotion, campaign targeting, and reporting for podcast downloads, listens, followers, or YouTube activity. Charts is also useful to people checking Apple Podcasts and Spotify rankings without signing in.

Limits

Boost is charged according to the entered campaign budget, and completed campaigns are not refundable. A full refund requires cancellation by email within 60 minutes during regular business hours; campaign statistics may take about two hours to appear.
