Common questions
What pricing model works best?
Monthly subscriptions ($10-50) provide predictable recurring revenue. Annual plans at a discount improve retention and cash flow. Many sites offer both plus a lifetime option for early adopters.
How do I price my membership?
Research competitors in your niche, calculate the value you provide, and start with a price that feels slightly uncomfortable. You can always offer introductory discounts. Most sites underprice at launch.
Can I sell courses inside a membership?
Yes. LearnDash and LifterLMS integrate with membership plugins and BuddyPress. You can include courses in membership plans, sell them separately, or use them as upsells for higher-tier members.
What are the best revenue models?
Tiered memberships (free, basic, premium), course bundles, community access fees, coaching add-ons, and marketplace commissions. The most profitable sites combine 2-3 models.
