The Future of Value-driven Content
Immersive web experiences pull the viewer into a browser-based virtual environment, often using a range of media that takes an audience from passively viewing to actively engaging with the content.
They’re especially powerful because they’re hosted in a web browser, meaning they can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection from any modern device.

Understanding Immersive Web Experiences
Traditional forms of content such as articles, videos and written guides work well, but they only offer a passive viewing experience. The viewer is simply observing the content. That’s fine for when you want to deliver a straightforward message, but it means the viewer won’t take away much value from the experience because they haven’t learned anything.
Immersive web experiences transport the viewer into a virtual space, meaning they can explore environments they may not otherwise have access to. For example, we worked with Oriflame Cosmetics to bring their brand experience to life by virtually transporting their three million brand ambassadors to their new Stockholm offices.
Digital immersion evokes more empathy from the user, taking them from their desk to an online world complete with interactive elements so that they can connect with your brand on a deeper level. That means more commitment from them and better results for you.
Where does interactivity come in?
Interactive content requires participation from the audience and allows them to take control of their learning while being guided towards the desired results, which could range from better employee engagement to improved brand loyalty.
Combine this with immersive web technology, and users will engage with a more focused and exciting viewing experience. Popular choices include adding quizzes, polls and surveys to immersive experiences; tried and tested methods of getting your audience to engage with your brand, which allows you to gain a deeper understanding of the user and serve them better.
If these tools were hosted on a standard web page you’d see lower levels of engagement. Make the process of sharing information more fun for the user and you’ll increase the chances of them interacting with it.
Keep them coming back for more
To recap, interactive and immersive web experiences take the viewer into a virtual world and engage them through dynamic content. When people are engaged, they’re more likely to remember what they’ve learned. That translates to better quality leads, engaged employees and educated customers.
Interactive and immersive web experiences also lead to improved social sharing and viewer retention. Make your content exciting to digest and users will keep coming back for more.
