Summary
Editor’s Note: In this update, we take a look at our past blog post and give it a fresh, new take on the importance of VR web design in the coming months and years. Our original post was created in June 2016 and we have revisited the topic to give readers an updated opinion on where things currently stand when it comes to virtual reality and why every business needs to consider this as part of their web design and digital marketing strategy more than ever. Here are a few that came to mind when thinking about the future of VR implementation and which industries could benefit immediately from it: Being able to utilise virtual reality to quickly come up with or receive proof of concept is not only convenient but essential in this day and age where most things are instant. As a lot of people want to see exactly what they are buying, technologies via VR and AR will offer a convenient alternative to having to stand in long queues just to get your weekly shop completed. Dean Johnson, Head of Innovation at Brandwidth, said “Yes…if VR enhances their existing product or service.” Bertie Millis, Managing Director of Virtual Umbrella, agreed, saying that it “will set you aside from your competitors and give you a unique channel to communicate to your customers.” However, Mark Curtis, Founder and COO of Fjord, believes that it’s too early, saying that “any marketing at this stage would be highly experimental.” This is, of course, true, as virtual reality is still in such an early stage.
