digital creators
Internet content makers
Digital creators are people who produce content for online platforms—videos, podcasts, social media posts, digital art, or written work distributed through the internet.
The term emerged as creative work shifted from traditional media to YouTube, TikTok, Substack, and similar platforms.
Unlike older terms like "content creator," digital creators emphasizes the medium: She's a digital creator with millions of followers.
The phrase often implies someone who earns income from their online presence.
