The idea to open their own Internet radio station comes up with a huge number of people. But only a few bring their idea to direct discovery. Someone thinks that this is an expensive process, someone that large computer resources are needed, and someone is completely convinced that taxes must be paid for this type of activity. It's time to dispel all these myths and see what is really needed for this.
Necessary
The nullsoft website and their three programs, fast internet and a lot of good music
Instructions
Step 1
Get a good internet connection. The only thing that costs money for your radio station is a constant and fast connection. For good broadcasting, you need a speed of 2 megabits or more. A deuce will be enough to avoid jamming, overloading and other unpleasant things.
Step 2
Install 5 megabit internet if possible. Despite the fact that two would be enough for you too, if you start downloading something or very actively looking for something on the net, your listeners will immediately know about it from the noise and lags. Five or more megabytes will allow you to live the full life of an Internet user without compromising your online radio.
Step 3
Go to the Nullsoft website. To make a radio, you only need three free programs from this site: Winamp, Soundcast server and SHOUTcast DNAS Plug-in. Winamp is a well-known music player. Soundcast server is directly your radio station, which is uploaded to the Nulsoft website. The sound plug-in is the connecting part of your radio station. It is she who will make an oyline radio out of your computer (or rather Winamp).
Step 4
Find the music you want to play. When installing the server on the site, specify the style and format of the music. Other users will be able to find your radio in the general list and connect to it.
Step 5
Then everything depends on you. Play the role of a DJ in your company. Spread the link among your friends and play your favorite music together. Or run a small ad campaign on social media and popular music sites and try to turn radio into a new income line.
