According to HubSpot ? organizers of the largest webinar on record, among many others ? the best webinars all share certain traits. They clearly communicate information on a really great, interesting topic, set clear registration and attendance goals, and then provide people with some kind of incentive to actually attend. The best webinars typically avoid busy Monday and Friday timeslots, and be sure you make a good landing page that helps convince people to attend and enable them to do so. Also, great webinars should make good use of reminder emails and social media to promote your webinar.

“Education is one of the most powerful tools you can use to make change happen. Webinars need to have some type of educational component to it — whether you’re educating your audience about a product, a service, a new piece of content, how to use a tool, and so on.”
