Planning and scheduling webinars, inviting attendees, recordings, automation and everything about your plan.
Webinar room branding
Colours, logo and banner for your webinar room, where people land when the event ends, and the address your rooms open on.
General
Step-by-step guide to setting up a webinar from scratch
The whole path from a new account to the recording in your hands, with the settings that matter on a first webinar and the details that catch people out.
General
Webinar statistics and reports
Every webinar keeps its own insights screen with registration figures, per-person attendance, the chat log and CTA clicks, and all of it exports to a file.
General
Why YouTube videos are missing from your recording
YouTube content is deliberately left out of webinar recordings, and Google now asks viewers to sign in. Upload MP4 files to keep your recordings complete.
General
Anonymous webinar and participant data protection under GDPR
Hide attendee names, moderate the chat, drop the host name from the broadcast and save recordings with no personal data, while keeping the webinar interactive.
General
Inviting and managing attendees without platform emails
Invite people to a webinar without the platform sending any email at all, either by publishing the public entry link or by handing out personal access links.
General
Attendee invitations and management
Build your attendee list from a public webinar link, manual entry, a CSV or XLSX import or a landing page, then filter, group and export what you collect.
General
Automatic webinar recording
Automatic recording starts when the first moderator joins your webinar and stops when the last one leaves, and you can still stop and restart it by hand.
Automation
Planning an automated webinar
Plan an automated webinar step by step, from choosing the video and the dates to adding virtual attendees, scripted chat messages and call to action buttons.
Automation
Will my payment card be automatically charged?
MyOwnConference never charges a card automatically and stores no billing information at all. You pay by hand, and only when you decide you need a paid plan.
Billing & account
CTA buttons
Add call-to-action buttons and banners to your webinar so that attendees can buy, register or visit your site, and track every click on them with UTM tags.
General
When webinar email notifications are sent
Why the platform sends webinar email on a fixed automatic schedule instead of on demand, what each message contains, and how to resend one to a single attendee.
Automation
Finding a recording
Recordings sit in two places in your account, beside the event they belong to and in the Storage archive. Here is how to find, watch, download and share them.
General
How long does a free account stay active?
The Starter plan has no expiry date. A free account asks one thing, a sign-in every six months. We email you before an unused one is deleted with its contents.
Billing & account
Information page after registration
Send people who register for your webinar to a page you choose. Where the Info page field sits, what the new-window toggle does, and which events do without it.
General
What to do if webinar invitations go to spam
Why webinar invitations land in the spam folder, what we do about it with SPF, DKIM and DMARC, and which banner and mailing list habits fix it on your side.
Automation
Landing page mode
Turn a webinar room into a registration page that collects contacts around the clock. How to switch it on, what you can customise, and why the room stops working.
General
Moderator and presenter management
How moderators and presenters differ on MyOwnConference, how to add them to a webinar or a permanent room, and how to hand out their personal access links.
General
Do you offer packages with several webinar rooms?
Every plan gives you unlimited webinar rooms and unlimited scheduled events. What your plan caps is the attendees across events that run at the same time.
Billing & account

MyOwnConference issues no paper contracts or invoices. Find your electronic documents in the control panel, and see why the team has been paperless since 2013.
Billing & account
Permanent-link room
Three ways to keep one webinar link across several events: a scheduled series, a cloned webinar, or a permanent room that stays open around the clock.
General
Personalized access links
Give every attendee a unique webinar link tied to their own email address, and find out exactly what happens when someone forwards their link to a colleague.
General
How to choose and pay for a plan
Compare the free Starter plan with paid and one-day plans, pay by card, PayPal, crypto or bank transfer, and extend or upgrade a plan without losing paid days.

General
Uploading a presentation to a webinar
Two ways to get a presentation into a webinar, from the control panel or from inside the room, plus the size limits and the conversion wait to plan around.
General
MyOwnConference public API
Full reference for the MyOwnConference API, covering the access key, the request and response format, and every command for webinars, attendees and automation.
Automation
Public events in a webinar room
Create a webinar room that anyone can join through one permanent link, with no scheduling and no registration form, then hand out the attendee and moderator links.
General
Recording link
Share a webinar recording by link instead of downloading it, set the date the link expires, copy it or send it by email, and find out how to remove it early.
General
Everything about webinar recording
Start and stop a webinar recording, choose its quality and what the frame captures, and then share, download, trim, rename or restore the finished file.
General
Registration limit by plan capacity
Stop taking sign-ups once your webinar hits the attendee limit of your plan. The cap counts everyone on the attendee list, not only the people who signed up.
General
Starting a scheduled webinar
A scheduled webinar has no start button. It goes live when a host signs in and presses Speak, so here is where that sits and what attendees see until then.
General
Time zones and webinars
Your account time zone is the one you schedule in, and attendees see the start in theirs. How to set it, what the daylight saving switch does and what to check.
General
UTM tags
How UTM tags travel through a webinar, from the entry link to the exit page, the invitation buttons and the CTA banners, and which tags win when two sets meet.
General
Webinar planning
Plan a webinar step by step, from the date and the entry form to recording settings, invitation emails, presenters, attendee groups and your uploaded materials.
General
