Stream hosting
Your stream, on the air and staying there.
Internet radio stream hosting and monitoring on Icecast or Shoutcast.
Internet radio set up and watched by someone who keeps real stations on the air. Mounts and bitrates set right, with alerts when the stream drops.
On site in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa. Remote anywhere in the U.S.How it works
- Your encoder connects
- The server relays to listeners
- I watch for dropouts
Bring your own automation and encoder, or I’ll help you pick. Plays in browsers, apps, smart speakers, and the stream directories.
What's included
- Stream server Icecast or Shoutcast, configured and kept patched.
- Two quality levels A full-quality stream, plus a low-bitrate one for bad connections.
- Fallback audio If your encoder drops, listeners hear a backup loop instead of dead air.
- Now playing Song info passed through to players and your website.
- Listener stats Who’s tuned in, from where, and for how long.
- Monitoring Silence and disconnect alerts come to me, not your listeners.
Good fit if
- — You run a station: school, community, or a hobby that got serious.
- — Your stream drops and you hear about it from listeners.
- — You want someone who knows broadcast, not just servers.
