Discover how Vidude helps NZ creators earn income, support small businesses, and drive local economic growth through video content and monetization.
Why Local Video Creation and Monetization is the Next Big Side Hustle in Aotearoa
As New Zealand embraces the digital age, there's one local innovation that’s quietly driving a powerful economic shift: Vidude.com — a video platform built in Aotearoa, for Aotearoa.
While global platforms dominate the online video scene, Vidude is carving out a unique, homegrown space that supports local creators, small businesses, and the broader New Zealand economy.
From young Kiwis filming lifestyle vlogs to tradies sharing DIY tips, Vidude’s creator-first model is transforming casual video uploads into real income opportunities.
???????? The Big Picture: Why the NZ Economy Needs Local Digital Innovation
New Zealand’s economy has always been driven by small businesses, creative industries, tourism, agriculture, and more recently, tech and media innovation. However, local creators often struggle to monetize content, build influence, or stand out on international platforms like YouTube or TikTok.
Here’s the problem:
Global platforms favour international content and algorithms
Revenue often flows overseas, not back to local creators
Kiwis need locally relevant platforms that reward authenticity
Vidude solves this. It's more than a platform — it's an economic tool that supports:
Local job creation
Digital upskilling
Passive income for everyday Kiwis
