A webinar is a virtual seminar where speakers communicate with virtual participants on a particular subject. They are commonly used for introducing new products and discussing business ideas. Webinars can be free or expensive and offer limited interaction for attendees.
A webinar is a virtual event in which one or more speakers are able to communicate with virtual participants who can usually hear and sometimes see a presentation given on a particular subject. The subject of such a seminar can vary greatly, although they are commonly used to introduce new products and discuss various business ideas. These seminars may be offered free of charge in some cases, although other seminars can be quite expensive to “attend”. A webinar can also provide functionality for attendees to provide feedback and can include limited interaction for attendees.
Also called a “webinar,” a webinar is essentially a virtual version of a seminar where a group of people gather to listen to one or more people talk about a particular topic. Rather than bringing participants together in a conference room, however, a webinar is conducted through virtual space on a network such as the Internet. The “participants” of this seminar use computers connected to the network to access the speaker’s presentation. This presentation usually consists of audio that can be heard by participants, although many seminars also include video presentations.
The content presented in a webinar can vary greatly, although it is often used by companies rather than individuals. A company introducing a new product to a relatively select group of people, for example, could use this seminar to do just that. Companies offering specialized business software can also use this type of seminar to introduce their product to companies that can benefit from using the software. A company can also use a webinar to explain or resolve issues within a company, allowing an officer to communicate with multiple managers or employees across the country simultaneously.
Companies often offer a free webinar to introduce new products to other companies or consumers, and these are seen as advertisements crafted by these companies. Proven services or well-known speakers may charge attendees for this seminar, providing access to the seminar only to those with a code or other means of identification. Attendees to an online seminar can typically see and hear the seminar speaker or speakers, but some software used for these seminars can also provide interactive functionality for attendees. This can allow attendees to ask the speaker questions in real time or provide feedback based on questions or ideas raised by the speaker at the seminar.
