A radio station using streaming technology in a virtual network is called Internet radio. The creators of radio stations most often pursue commercial goals, so a logical question arises - how to make money on Internet radio?
Instructions
Step 1
Create your own internet radio station. To create it, there is no need to purchase expensive equipment and invest a lot of money. It is enough to have a good taste in music, understand styles and understand something in computer programs.
Step 2
Download everything you need for internet radio from free sources and install it on your computer. Next, think over the musical style of your radio station and fill the playlist with suitable songs. Creating an Internet radio is a somewhat meticulous task and will take a certain amount of time, but if you are really fired up with the idea of an Internet radio station, you will find both the time and the desire.
Step 3
Promote your radio station. It is quite obvious that you will not have to wait for any significant income from Internet radio at first. In order for your radio station to be interested, you need to promote it in search engines. Internet radio promotion is about the same as website promotion. You can hire specialists, or you can personally take care of the popularity of your brainchild.
Step 4
Find advertisers. One of the key items in a radio station's income is advertising. Yes, it can annoy many listeners, but some of them may be the target audience of your advertisers. Of course, you can at your discretion choose what you want to advertise and what you will not promote for any money.
Step 5
Make custom-made broadcasts. Here, of course, the question arises, which programs should be done and by whose order. In this matter, you also yourself determine which programs on the air of your radio station are permissible, and which are immoral in accordance with your principles. It is worth remembering, however, that bespoke broadcasts are also a significant source of income for your radio station.
Step 6
Create an electronic internet radio wallet. You can indicate its number on the website and invite everyone who likes the style and musical direction of your radio station to transfer any amount of money to the radio station's account. If your e-wallet venture is successful, you can exclude advertisements and customized broadcasts from the air.
