Hey there! Today, I want to talk about something that’s been making waves in the tech world – Web 3.0. But, since our expertise is video for business, I also want to talk about how businesses can use video content to achieve different goals in this new decentralized and interoperable internet, and how it’s different from using video content in the old, centralized internet (also known as Web 2.0). So, sit back and let’s dive into this exciting topic!

First things first, what exactly is Web 3.0? In simple terms, it’s the next version of the internet, where the focus is on giving users control over their data and online identity. It’s about creating a more democratic and equitable internet where data isn’t controlled by a few big corporations, but instead by users themselves. The goal is to build decentralized applications, called dApps, that can operate without the need for a central authority, making the internet more secure, transparent, and connected.

We always say that video content is a powerful tool that businesses can use in a variety of ways. With the rise of Web 3.0, there are new opportunities for businesses to reach their customers and achieve their goals. So, here are a few ways businesses can use video content in Web 3.0:

Building Trust: Video content is a great way to build trust with your customers. When you create educational and informative videos about your products or services, you’re giving potential customers a chance to get to know your business better. This can help build trust and credibility, which is essential for any business.
Engaging customers: Video is the most engaging type of content you can create, and businesses can use this to their advantage. You can create videos that showcase your products or services in an exciting and dynamic way, or you could create fun and creative videos that entertain your audience while educating them about what you do. Either way, video content can help keep your customers engaged and interested in what you have to offer.
Showcasing your brand: By creating videos that align with your brand values and messaging, you can help build a strong and recognizable brand identity. This can help you stand out from your competitors and establish a strong presence in your industry.
Reaching new customers: With the rise of Web 3.0, there are new opportunities to reach new customers. Web 3 is based on decentralized platforms like IPFS, which stands for InterPlanetary File System and IPLD , which stands for InterPlanetary Linked Data. Without going too much into it, this decentralized structure provides several benefits, including increased speed and reliability, as well as the ability to store and access large files without the need for a central authority. These platforms are making it easier to distribute video content and reach new audiences you would not reach before. So if you create engaging video content, you can reach potential customers who may not have found your business otherwise.
Providing value: By creating educational videos or tutorials, for example, you’re giving your customers something of value that they can use to solve a problem or improve their life. This can help establish your business as an authority in your industry and make customers more likely to choose your products or services.

Now, you can ask, how this is different from using video content in Web 2.0? Well, in Web 2.0, the internet is controlled by a few big corporations like Google, Facebook, and Amazon. These companies control our data and online identity, which meant that businesses had to play by their rules if they wanted to reach their customers. With video content, businesses were limited by the platforms they used to distribute their content and were at the mercy of algorithm changes that could drastically impact their reach.

In Web 3.0, things are different. With the rise of decentralized platforms and the increased focus on user control, businesses have more freedom to reach their customers in new and innovative ways. Video content can still play a key role in achieving business goals, but the way it is created, distributed, and interacted with is different.

What do I mean by that? In Web 3.0, businesses have the opportunity to reach their customers directly, without having to rely on centralized platforms. This means that businesses can have more control over the reach of their video content, and can use new technologies like blockchain and decentralized storage to ensure the security and integrity of their data.

Another important difference is the way that video content is monetized. In Web 2.0, businesses often had to rely on advertising revenue to monetize their video content. However, in Web 3.0, businesses have the opportunity to explore new models, like tokenization and micropayments, which can provide a more sustainable, secure and equitable way to monetize video content. If you want to learn more about these new payment methods, I’ve added a few links in the show notes.

Finally, the use of video content in Web 3.0 is also different because of the way it is created and shared. With the rise of decentralized platforms and tools, it’s becoming easier for individuals and businesses to create and share video content without having to rely on centralized platforms. This opens up new opportunities for creativity and innovation and gives businesses the freedom to experiment and find new ways to engage with their customers.

In conclusion, Web 3.0 is pretty much a game-changer for the way businesses use video content to achieve their goals. Whether you’re looking to build trust, engage customers, showcase your brand, reach new audiences, or provide value, video content can play a key role in your success in this new decentralized and interoperable internet.
