Blogs: Hiding Premium Posts

by Bruich76

Hi

Just wondered if anyone had ever experimented with hiding or limiting access to 'premium' posts or content unless a payment of 0.99 cents is made or something?

Sounds like a better idea then adwords... but, would anyone actually pay?!

I don't want to put people off reading my blog!

Thanks

    I ran into a site last week that required a small "joining fee" to read specific content. I left the site.

    Unless you have specialized knowledge in a particular niche - or good following - or information/expertise that can't be found everywhere else...I don't see how it could work.

    I could be wrong - but it's not something I would even test myself. If you try it - let us know how it worked.

    Do you mean Adsense?

    If they have no prior experience with you, it's doubtful.

    Premium content is how you make your site visible....so de-listing that information from the search engines is a true recipe for disaster. There are about 20-30 marketing bloggers that could do this and become very wealthy since they already have tons of content/subscribers in place, but the rest would fall flat on their faces.

    Instead, make all your posts free and write eBooks to sell. Much better model for success.
