Castopod is a free and open-source hosting platform made for podcasters. Engage and interact with your audience whilst keeping control over your content.

For a while now you could install Castopod on your server if you knew how to do so. There were other ways as well, by using YuNoHost or even Cloudron type of services that did provide a one-click install method. But now, a great option is to see that on these shared hosting providers Cpanels a way for the "normal" site admins to be included.

True in that using shared hosting packages to run your website is probably not the best solution but, it does provide a way for a small site to get into the game. Eventually, down the line, they can move their site and all of the related resources into a VPS or even a managed server.
