Easy Membership Site
First, let me say that I do not believe there is anything easy about setting up a membership site.
Membership site software is easy. But creating content and keeping up with your schedule, along with marketing your membership website all both not easy things to do.
If you are setting up your first membership site, here is some advice.
- Keep it simple and low cost. Even if you only make a few hundered dollars the first time out, that is better than most people do and it will teach you a lot.
- Use Wishlist Member to auto schedule content to be released after each month. That way it is more like an autoresponder and less like a course that needs fresh content each month.
- If you use 1ShoppingCart because you dream of a big affiliate team, just be ready for a lot of work. Building a good affiliate group is a long and difficult journey.
- Start a blog on the site where your membership site will be and start writing to it long before the membership site is ready. This will help you rank better in search engines and get better future results when you are ready to really start marketing that membership site.
That is all practical advice I wish someone would have given me when I was first starting out.
