Webinars (sometimes referred to as web conferencing, online seminars or webcast) is a type of virtual event that takes place online. Monitors, guest and key speakers present information via visual and audio through the internet (and/or phone). Information may include speeches, slideshows, videos and images and other types of content.

Success comes in many forms. The most successful webinars include the presentation of content that is fully produced and polished to a corporate level. This may mean rehearsing a speech for a live stream, but more often it is an edited (as-live) video/audio with creative presentation of supportive content such as a side-by-side Powerpoint, graphics and/or combination of material.
How that content is presented can also change the way it is received. Adding a familiar backdrop, such as a auditorium image around your video presentation, can help attendees feel immersed similar to an in-person event. These also offer branding opportunities for sponsors as they can purchase ad spaces.

Do More
Online seminars have large advantages over in-person events. The biggest advantage is the increased attendance potential. Live-streaming webinars can be recorded and re-viewed for those with scheduling conflicts. Strip away time zone issues with V.O.D. or as-live streaming events that start within their own respective time zones. Break down language barriers with translation services of speeches, supportive material, and files. Maximize attendee absorption with on-demand (re)viewing and file hosting on the cloud that can be accessed anywhere at any time. The potential of taking your conference or seminar online is huge and reporting of the analytical data allows you to further improve in ways never measurable before.
