Web3.0 aims to allow everyone to generate business from their online content by addressing issues with previous models. It proposes platforms that make publishing and managing user-generated content into profitable businesses with professional, easy-to-use tools. These would include marketing, retention and financial tools to help users optimize and monetize their content. The goal is to transform hundreds of millions of users into entrepreneurs by enabling them to both publish content and build successful media businesses in one integrated system.
