What is the best way to host a podcast for free, specifically on archive.org?
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I am not sure if I totally understand you question so please bear with me. It appears you must be a member of Archive.org and then, if you already know how to create a podcast and just want to add your content to Archive.org here are their instructions (http://www.archive.org/about/faqs.php#Uploading_Content):
"You may contribute content to the Internet Archive if it's in the public domain or if you own the rights to it. If you own the rights, we recommend that you choose a Creative Commons license for it so that others will know how they may (or may not) use it.
The easiest way to contribute movies, audios, or books to the archive is to use our new uploader tool. Click the "Upload" button near the upper right-hand corner of the site, or click here.
You can also contribute items using our old upload method. You can track the progress of your items in our catalog.
How to upload via our old upload system:
* Go to http://www.archive.org/create.php?ftp=1
* Type in the item identifier you'd like to use (e.g. gt556) and click the "create item" button
* Wait a few moments for the item to be checked out. This is the checkout page - don't close it! Once the item's checked out, you'll be given ftp information about where to upload your item. You can either use an FTP program to do this, or use Internet Explorer for windows.
* When you're done uploading, make sure you check the item back in! There's a link on the checkout page that will check it back in for you (or, if you're using IE, click the "Click here when done" link in your ftp window).
* Choose a mediatype and collection
* Enter metadata
* Wait about 10 minutes for your item to go live
* It will take several hours for your item to show up in the search engine.
We accept audio, video, and text files."
