Verio Launches Hosted Podcast Tool

May 25, 2006 -- (WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) -- Web hosting provider Verio (verio.com) announced on Thursday it has released a hosted podcast tool with the aim of helping small businesses more easily provide and manage unique content and updates for their customers.

Podcast episodes, which include audio or video files, can enable businesses to market original content to audiences who otherwise may not be able or inclined to visit their Web sites regularly. Verio says its podcast file manager tool, offers business users a standard way to enable podcasts for their customers without developing a customized solution. Customers with limited technical knowledge of RSS Feeds or RSS Tags can easily configure, upload, access and manage their podcasts through an intuitive Web interface found on the Verio customer control panel.

"Customers are looking for meaningful and consistent ways to engage with their customers, attract new audiences and provide timely information and content as part of their business," says Dennis Boyle, Verio's chief operating officer. "By helping businesses build feature-rich Web sites with elements such as podcasting, these small businesses can build and increase customer loyalty. With Verio's hosted podcast tool, customers are empowered to create Web content to reach a vast number of people on an ongoing basis via portable devices."

Verio's podcast service is available at no cost with Verio's shared hosting services. Verio will extend its podcast service to its virtual and managed dedicated hosting plans later this year. The service is available in both English and Japanese.
