Webcast vs. webinar: What's the difference?
A webcast and a webinar are both online events that involve presenting information to a large remote audience. However, they do not mean the same thing.
Webcast
Webcasts refer to broadcasting pre-recorded or live online events to a much large audience with limited interaction from the organizer. They are ideal for events such as conference live streaming or event keynote. The main goal of online webcasting is to reach the maximum audience with minimal interaction, which can be achieved by streaming on platforms like YouTube.
Webinar
Webinars are interactive online events where organizers can present relevant information to a targeted audience. Unlike webcasting, webinars are more interactive, making them the ideal choice for organization-wide meetings, remote trainings, and Q&A sessions . Webinar attendees typically ask questions, participate in polls, and engage in discussions.
