What Makes Google Hangouts A Good Alternative To Webinar Software?

By Yusuf Abdi


When you're running an online business cutting costs is always at the forefront of your mind. The whole reason that you forgo the brick and mortar business style is because you want to minimize overhead and maximize profits.



Google Hangouts is an excellent alternative to webinar software because it is very easy to use. The interface is intuitive and your audience will not have a hard time with downloading and installing software. Google Hangouts is entirely free, which is definitely an advantage over webinar software since asking your audience to purchase software in order to follow your webinars is not a good way to attract more viewers.

The the Google Hangouts method is really more for a discussion between a smaller number of people, more in the 6 to 8 person range. If you have more people than that, it could get a bit jumbled. The Hangouts can be used as a live presentation of a discussion between those 6 to 8 people, as they would be the only allowed live participants, but there still could be a larger number of people on the call, but their participation would be that of an observer.

Google Hangouts is a part of Google +, the social network developed by Google. In order to take part in the webinar you organize on Google Hangouts, you will have to befriend your audience on Google +. This will make staying in touch with your audience a lot easier. You will be able to tell your viewers about the next webinar by simply updating Google + instead of spending the last few minutes of your webinar trying to convince viewers to subscribe to your newsletter or connect with you on Facebook.

You should create an account on Google + and give Google Hangouts a try. This could be the ideal platform for your webinar!
