Web Conferencing

So you always have to lead a conference and that too web one. To host or participate in a successful web conference, follow the list of good web etiquette given below.

Exclusivity
If it's a web seminar, do not host it for too many people at one go. You should rather hold multiple sessions of the same seminar. This gives the listeners enough time for giving a satisfactory feedback and for asking questions. The lesser the people in a conference, the more attention they eventually pay.

Time Management
A very important habit you need to develop is setting a time limit to each part in a conference and sticking to it. Learn to eliminate anything that may delay the start or end of the conference, and be prompt. This is a very crucial point as you'd be wasting the time of everyone present at the conference, which is a big thing especially since you're already pressed for enough time to hold a web conference.

Preparation
Keep all your material at stand-by so that you can show it or talk about it whenever you want to. If you're not used to hosting a web session, you can practice it before you go live and record it. You need to be smooth in operating all the tools during the session.

Memorability
Keep your speech in the meeting or seminar, a speech that can be remembered. It should have a sizable impact on the listeners for them to remember whatever you said or showed. That makes it easier for them to attend the next session.

Good Technology
I'm referring to the better web conference hosting software that you can get your hands on. Some of them are paid, some are free -

  • Microsoft Office Online
  • Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro
  • Dimdim
  • GoToMeeting
  • MegaMeeting
  • MyMeeting123
  • Cisco WebEx

These are the best conferencing software, take your pick and get to know them better.
