With the PAID feature enabled on your RSS.com account, you have the power to insert Mid-Roll ads into your podcast episodes, helping you monetize effectively without compromising your listener experience. RSS.com offers two ways to implement Mid-Roll ads: Automatic and Manual Mid-Rolls.
Automatic Mid-Rolls: A Hassle-Free Option
By default, PAID comes with Automatic Mid-Rolls activated. This setting will automatically insert an ad every 15 minutes in all of your episodes.
You can toggle the feature ON and OFF right from your PAID settings, in the Ad Insertion Points section.
Manual Mid-Rolls: Full Control Over Your Ad Placements
Once you activate the PAID feature, a new Mid-Roll icon will appear in the add-ons list for each episode card in your dashboard.
Manual Mid-Rolls allow you to strategically place ads in moments that best fit your content and you can always edit or adjust your placements later.
How to Add Manual Mid-Rolls?
- Click the Mid-Roll Icon: The first time you click this icon, a video walkthrough will automatically launch. This video provides a detailed, step-by-step guide on how to use the Mid-Roll feature effectively.
- Continue to the Placement Modal: After watching (or skipping) the video, you can click “Continue”, which will open a familiar interface, similar to the one used for chapters and soundbites.
- Customize Your Mid-Roll Placements: You can manually add up to 10 Mid-Roll ad spots per episode. Simply select the timestamps where you’d like the ads to be inserted for optimal listener experience.
Important: If you have manually placed mid-rolls in an episode, they will override the automatic setting, even if it is enabled. Manually added placements always take priority.
