Complete radio platform
A practical look at what an all-in-one radio setup should include.
This is a more relaxed guide to the moving parts behind a station: streaming, AutoDJ, SSL, bandwidth, websites, players, apps and support. The idea is to help station owners understand what they actually need, not drown them in hosting terminology.
Why choose us
Core features your station should look for
SSL Stream Security
Give listeners secure HTTPS-compatible stream links that work cleanly with modern websites and apps.
Unlimited Growth Potential
Choose plans and platforms that can grow with your audience instead of limiting your station too early.
Unlimited Bandwidth Options
Stable bandwidth helps listeners tune in without unnecessary buffering or sudden cut-offs.
Shoutcast & Icecast Support
Use popular streaming formats that work with players, directories, websites and mobile experiences.
Radio Website Hosting
Build a professional station website alongside your stream, schedule, presenters, apps and contact routes.
24/7 Support Routes
A good hosting provider should give your station clear ways to request help when you need it.
Cheap radio hosting without compromise
Low-cost should not mean low quality.
Affordable radio hosting should still give your station a stable platform, clear audio delivery, SSL stream links, AutoDJ features and practical support. The right provider helps you control costs without weakening the listener experience.
Online Audience offers budget-friendly radio hosting options designed for new broadcasters, community stations and growing radio brands that need a dependable starting point.
Shoutcast and Icecast
Flexible streaming for modern radio stations.
Shoutcast and Icecast remain widely used across internet radio because they are compatible with common players, directories and listening tools. Choosing a hosting provider that understands both makes it easier to build the listening setup your station needs.
Whether you prefer Sonic Panel, AzuraCast or a more tailored server setup, Online Audience can help you choose a route that fits your station and audience.
Ready to start your web radio?
Start simple, then add more ways for listeners to connect.
New stations can begin with streaming and AutoDJ, then add a professional website, custom player, Android or iOS app, Alexa radio skill and interactive web add-ons. This creates a stronger digital brand over time without needing to manage multiple disconnected providers.
For new stations
Start with the essentials, then build the extras around them.
A new station does not need every add-on on day one. The essentials are a stable stream, a way to keep audio playing when nobody is live, secure listener links, and a clear place for people to find you.
Once the basics are working, extras like a full website, mobile apps, Alexa access, schedule pages and custom players make much more sense because they are building on a reliable broadcast setup.
✓ Start with radio hosting and AutoDJ so the station can stay online.
✓ Use SSL stream links before embedding players on modern HTTPS websites.
✓ Add a website, app or smart speaker route when you are ready to grow the audience.
✓ Keep support in one place where possible so issues are easier to trace.
