Triton Digital Launches U.S. Podcast Rankings

U.S. Rankings

TRITON DIGITAL is now charting podcast listening in the U.S., releasing its first Podcast Report for the UNITED STATES ranking top podcasts and networks by average weekly downloads and average weekly users. The first report measures FEBRUARY 17th through MARCH 15th and TRITON says its data complies with IAB standards. TRITON has been issuing Podcast Reports for LATIN AMERICA and AUSTRALIA and is planning to add THE NETHERLANDS. The reports measure several of the larger podcast producers but not all, including only "participating entities that opt-in for measurement," with some prominent shows like THE JOE ROGAN EXPERIENCE and producers like PRX, ESPN, and others missing.

“We are pleased to expand our Podcast Reports to the UNITED STATES, providing buyers with the trustworthy, third-party podcast measurement they need to make informed decisions around podcast advertising,” said Pres. of Market Development JOHN ROSSO. “Additionally, our Podcast Reports are providing Networks with the reputable consumption data they need to grow their podcast strategies, gain a better understanding of their audiences, and increase their advertising revenue.”
