“Creator”, is a word even used to describe God. For any platform, Creators have always been the soul of the project, because they pour life into the platform. Without creators there would be no content for the users to consume and hence no User Engagement. Although, this has been the case since the beginning of the Web2 era, yet, the entrepreneurs have always focused on incentivising the consumers first and the term “Creator’s Economy” has just started making rounds in recent times.
