Greetings!
It is an honor to have you consider using WomensRadio to gain a greater audience, both nationally and internationally. Everything we have done so far has been “outside the box” of the conventional ways of producing radio, especially in making a way for women of all races and cultures, and also men who’s message touches women, to have a greater voice.
With our unique and trademarked technology, AudioAcrobat®, we are able to share this great opportunity to reach millions of listeners on the Web – and our target audience are women in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, United Kingdom, Afghanistan, Pakistan, India and many more countries globally! Because the Internet is ubiquitous, our Radio Shows reach people world-wide.
Our goal has never been to produce just one program, but to create an opportunity to house and promote lots of talent, to find others who would like to learn this craft of broadcasting, teach them, and create a place for them to grow.
Since the doors to “real” radio were closed to our efforts, we turned to the Web. Finding both the technology and the format to make production and distribution an easy process, has taken several years. We are very pleased to be able to offer both an easy and inexpensive way to work with talent to air and distribute their Radio Shows on the Web in order to accumulate the largest audiences.

What are the advantages of being a Host on WomensRadio?
1) When WomensRadio.com started over 15 years ago, women comprised only 5% of the Web.

Do you have to be a professional broadcaster to participate?
No. WomensRadio.com was designed to allow anyone who wishes to reach a target audience of women globally to publish their online, on-demand Web Radio Shows easily. We also have a way to train and “incubate,” for FREE, new talent who are not familiar with producing and publishing Web Radio Shows (see “Trainings Tab” located on the top right of the WomensRadio.com Home Page for a list of the FREE trainings offered).
What training do you offer?
WomensRadio.com offers the finest and most reputable training on how to produce, publish and distribute your Web Radio Shows. Our trainings will take you through step-by-step and all the training is FREE (see “Training Tab” located on the top right of the WomensRadio.com Home Page for a list of the FREE trainings offered).
Is the training required?
No. However, our trainings will not only teach you how to produce, publish and distribute your Web Radio Shows, they will also teach you other nifty Web Broadcasting techniques. Again, all this training is FREE (see “Training Tab” located on the top right of the WomensRadio.com Home Page for a list of the FREE trainings offered).
How much space will my program and I receive at WomensRadio?
Every Host will have their own Profile on WomensRadio.com and every time you publish a Radio Show on WomensRadio.com, audiences can listen and interact on a page dedicated to your recent Show post. Also, our WomensRadio.com Homepage will display: the categories of Shows posted; the most recent Shows posted; Shows posted that have received the most comments, and the relevant tags of Shows posted, all of which ensures your Shows can be found and seen in many different places at WomensRadio.com. Furthermore, the WR eNewsletter emails all of the most recent content at WomensRadio.com to our entire network!
Will audiences hear my programs live?
No. Producing programs as a “live” event is virtually useless on the Web as you would limit your listening audience by geographic area, time zones and most importantly, by the number of live listeners you can actually have listening to your Show at any given time. This is why WomensRadio.com specializes in broadcasting on-demand Web Radio Shows. “On-demand” means that anyone in the entire world can listen to your Web Radio Shows whenever and from wherever they want! Producing and publishing an on-demand Web Radio Show means your listening audience can be potentially larger than producing a “live” Radio Show because on-demand guarantees that your Shows can be accessed and heard whenever your audience wants to listen, all around the world! Furthermore, to create more audience, all of our Hosts’ Radio Shows are archived indefinitely as long as one continues to be an active Host on WomensRadio.com, which means, audiences can continue to listen to your older Shows whenever they want as well!
How many listeners can my program have at any given time?
It’s UNLIMITED! This is the beauty of using on-demand Web Radio vs. “live” Web Radio. On-demand gives you unlimited listeners at any given time and “live” Web Radio does not. Plus, “live” Web Radio abilities will typically cost more to use and maintain. So, why pay more for something and not gain a large listening audience? We don’t know why–that’s why we use on-demand Web Radio.
Will audiences be able to listen to old programs?
Yes. Currently, we “archive” your programs indefinitely as long as one continues to be an active Host on WomensRadio.com.
If I use WomensRadio to air my Radio Shows, who will own the copyright?
You will. And, by publishing your Shows on WomensRadio.com, this action prompted by the you/the Host, gives WomensRadio.com permission to promote your Shows on WomensRadio.com, any of its Affiliate Sites and Social Media Sites. This also means that since you will be in complete control of your copyrights, you must always make sure you have written, royalty-free permission to include any additional content that does not already belong to you within your Shows, which can include but is not limited to your use of Music, Images, Guest Release Forms, etc. Please see Site Terms and Conditions for full details.
Can I post my Radio Shows on other websites?
Yes, you can republished the Audio content of your Radio Shows, specifically, on any other platform/website you desire! Even your own website! However, while you will own the copyrights to any textual material you may publish at WomensRadio.com, by publishing any textual content on WomensRadio.com, you may not republish that textual content anywhere else on the Web afterwards. You may only republish the Audio content. Please see Site Terms and Conditions for full details.
Please Note: The reason we do not allow republishing of textual content is because we must comply with Google Ranking’s Search Algorithm in order to protect both Contributors, as well as WomensRadio.com and any other website from being penalized by Google. Furthermore, these conditions are only applicable to those publishing textual content in any form and does not apply to Audio content.
Is there a minimum time commitment to participate at WomensRadio?
No, you can post whenever and however much you want! However, in order to gain a larger presence anywhere on the Web, we strongly advise that you post as often as possible, as new content will always rise to the top in Search Engine Results, which means–the more you post, the more you will be seen. Furthermore, we advise that you republished the Audio content of your Radio Shows, specifically, on other platforms/websites, even your own website because the more places you post your Audio Content on the Web, the more places your Show and Hosting presence will be found/seen!
Can my Web Radio Shows be seen/heard on “Smart Phones,” other Mobile Devices, iPads and other Tablets?
Yes! AudioAcrobat® offers special “theme players” that convert to HTML5 so your Show can be seen/heard on “Smart Phones,” other Mobile Devices, iPads and other Tablets. AudioAcrobat® also offers a Mobile App on iPhones so you can record on your phone, have the recording save to your AudioAcrobat® Account when you’re on-the-go! The AudioAcrobat® Support Team can give you more information on this feature when you take their live online trainings.
Is there any equipment that I have to purchase to produce a program?
Not anymore! We have developed the easiest way to produce and publish streaming audio for your online, on-demand Web Radio Show – it’s a Web-based service called AudioAcrobat®. When we began this mission, the equipment alone cost over $2500. Now with AudioAcrobat®, everything you need to produce professional online, on-demand Radio Shows is available for just $19.95 per month and the first 30-days will be for FREE!
In order to post on WomensRadio.com for free, all Hosts are required to open and maintain their own AudioAcrobat® Account at $19.95 a month for the purpose of producing and/or publishing their Shows on WomensRadio.com. The AudioAcrobat® Support Team can train each Host on how to use the Audio, Video and Podcasting tools within their AA Account via the downloadable or live online trainings.
What’s even better is that AudioAcrobat®, while affiliated with WomensRadio.com, is treated as a separate service in which each Host may use their AudioAcrobat® Account, including the Audio, Video and Podcasting features, for other purposes outside of producing/publishing their Radio Show on WomensRadio.com!
Also, once a Host has created an AudioAcrobat® Account they are automatically enrolled into the AA Affiliate Program and if the Host gets just 4 people to sign-up via their special, affiliate URL—they will recoup the cost of the $19.95 making their AudioAcrobat® Account FREE at that point and an extra source of revenue if they continue to gain affiliate sign ups after the initial 4 people!
Is there anything else I might need?
Another great part about using AudioAcrobat® to produce and publish your Web Radio Shows on WomensRadio.com—you can do this from the comfort of your home at your computer if you desire! If you want to produce audio directly via your computer, you might want to purchase either a good microphone or a Plantronics headset that can be used for phone recordings as well as recording directly into the computer. Occasionally, we also use Sonic Foundry’s Sound Forge software to record interviews in order to edit before uploading them to AudioAcrobat®, and we use Audacity—a FREE audio editing software.
How much does this cost?
Posting on WomensRadio.com and receiving all the benefits listed above is free as long as the person/Host maintains an AudioAcrobat® Account at $19.95 per month, which will be billed when you open your AudioAcrobat® Account. The first 30-days will be for FREE and it is a subscription service, so that means no “up-front” fees!
