For the host holding a recording
The session is finished and the recording is the thing everyone writes about. Here is where the replay link goes on the page, who can actually see it, and how it reaches the people who signed up but missed the hour.
Start with the honest boundary, because it shapes everything after it. My Joyfullday does not capture your session and does not host the video. You record on whatever platform you presented on, upload it where you keep your files, and the replay link is the address that gives back. What the webinar page contributes is a place to put that address where registrants will look, and a list to send it to.
That is a smaller job than most hosts expect, and it is the part that saves the afternoon. After a session you end up answering one message over and over — is there a recording? — and a replay link on the page plus a single broadcast to the list closes that loop instead of forty private pastes.
A registration page is a public thing: anyone holding its address can read what is on it. So the question is not whether the page can hold a replay link — it can — but whether you want every visitor to reach the recording. If the replay is meant only for people who actually came, keep it off the visible page and send it as a message to the segment you want, or put a password on the page and share that password with the names you chose.
There is a second, quieter channel worth knowing: each registrant already has their own private access link, handed over in their confirmation email so the meeting address was never broadcast to whoever found the page. That link belongs to the live session. For the replay, the practical routes are the page itself and a targeted message to your list — and being clear about which is which keeps you from promising attendees something the page does not do.
After the hour ends, everyone on and around the page wants something different.
They want the bits they missed while taking notes. Put the replay link in the resources area of the page and send one message to the attended segment; both routes reach them, and neither needs a second platform.
They kept a place they did not use. The no-show and registered segments are exactly who a follow-up message goes to, which is the difference between a replay nobody finds and a replay that recovers the session.
They arrive late, after the date has passed. Point them at what you genuinely have for them — the materials section, or the page for your next session — rather than pretending a replay exists for everyone.
If the session contained client work, internal numbers or anything you would rather not have circulating, a link on a public page is the wrong shape for it. Two plain options stay available: password-protect the page and send the password only to invited names, or leave the page untouched and send the replay address as a message to a chosen segment of the registrant list.
Neither of those is a lock in the paranoid sense — a person who watched the session can forward a link — but both keep the address off search results and off a page any stranger can open. Combined with the fact that the video itself sits wherever you uploaded it, under whatever sharing rules you set there, that is the realistic version of control after a webinar.
How it works
Capture the session where you presented it and put the file where you keep your videos. The replay address you get back is what the page and the message will carry.
Attendees only, or everyone who registered? That choice decides whether the link goes on the visible page or stays inside a message to a segment.
The resources area takes the links you supply: replay, slides, workbook. Open the finished page and update it whenever you like; the address people already have keeps working.
From the dashboard, choose attended or registered and send the replay with a line about what it covers. Then export the list as CSV or PDF if you want the record somewhere else.
Questions
No. Recording happens on the platform you present on, and the file stays yours. What we do is give you a place on the page for the replay link and a registrant list to send it to, which is most of what people mean by this question.
That is the natural use of a segment. The attendee list keeps statuses — attended, no-show, waitlisted — so you can address the people who came, or the ones who registered and missed it, instead of the whole list. The message is written by you and sent by you.
Anything you leave on the visible page can be read by anyone holding the page address. If that bothers you, keep the replay out of the page and send it as a broadcast, or put a password on the page and share it with the names you invited.
No. The private link each registrant receives in their confirmation email is for getting into the live session, so the meeting address was never published. The replay is whatever address you have for the recording afterwards.
The link stops working, and the page has no way to know. Since you own the file, it is worth checking the replay address before you advertise it to the next session's list, and saying plainly on the page when a recording has been retired.
Get Started
Put the replay where registrants look, send it to the segment it belongs to, and say honestly who can reach it. That is the whole after-session job done properly.
