Is there any money to be made from membership sites??

nevillealston · 11-06-2009, 08:44 PM

Is there really?

Ron Douglas · 11-06-2009, 09:45 PM

Why wouldn't there be?

Frank Bruno · 11-06-2009, 09:56 PM

Thats a silly question... Of course there is....

The only way to satisfy your question would be to open up a membership site of your own. Then you will see.

But really it comes down to what kind of membership site it is and if people are willing to pay for access and also how you market the membership site.

Is there any money to be made by getting a job?

SageSound · 11-06-2009, 10:43 PM

I'm wondering if there's any money to be made panhandling...

techseol · 11-07-2009, 02:46 AM

Its a fact, if you make one membership site a day and enter market, u r likely 2 make a zero and instead bag some bad words in your ear!!

wat u have 2 do is:

1. Offer great FREE content first
2. Build some 5000+ readers around FREE content
3. Now start offering some content thats 10x valuable than FREE ones and make it premium. Ask your already satisfied FREE readers, if interested in becoming a premium member.
4. Now work on both FREE & PREMIUM
5. Stick on 2 ur FREEMIUM Model

You will be a success!!

A friend of mine runs a successful membership site. It's nothing to do with IM or MMO - she's a bridge a teacher and she runs a bridge teaching site.

You need to offer content that people want and are willing to pay for.

Techseol - tells almost exactly how she did it.

Allegro · 11-07-2009, 05:14 AM

No. There is no money in membership sites. Move on to the next method, and to the one after that, and to the one after that.

Ashley Wright · 11-07-2009, 06:57 AM

I agree with Allegro, nobody likes to have money coming in on a regular basis its just silly!

Lou Diamond · 11-07-2009, 09:24 AM

Hello,
I do very well with mine.

bgmacaw · 11-07-2009, 09:44 AM

There was a membership site in the news recently. They made $400K in 3 days selling a $5 digital product packet to their substantial membership base.

dean_holland · 11-07-2009, 11:26 AM

LMAO ...

Is this a serious question ??

Look at all the membership sites in the vast amount of niches... Do you think they make money ??!!

What a daft question and it deserves the replies it has had above, BUT... Just in case you are not quite getting the answer in simple form ...

YES !!!! Membership sites make money, SHOCK HORROR !!!

Hope that doesn't cause any injuries to anyone reading, please do not try to claim against me for any injuries or damages after reading that statement lol

Problogger Forum, WF have membership based areas and i can see there is some money in there but just that we need to find the topic to sell and promotion that can get us to monthly enough income.

lakshaybehl · 11-07-2009, 12:14 PM

Nah... no money in thinking about membership sites. I've tried it. Thought way too hard.

There is money to be made from anything and everything but it requires one thing ... Stop thinking about it and take action and do it yourself...

Is there money to be made from making money online?

nevillealston · 11-08-2009, 07:31 AM

Wow, very interesting guys! Thanks for the input...Although I have just one more question...Those here who have actually seen success in membership sites: What niche are you in and how long did it actually take you to start seeing some noticeable results?

And another question: do you guys think that health niche websites are a great niche to be in for this medium of Internet Marketing??

Thanks guys!

Not enough.

Allen Graves · 11-08-2009, 08:05 AM

No - not if you are lazy and expect a solid membership while you sit on the beach sipping your frozen mai-tai. It does require a certain amount of smart work.

Yes - if you are willing to spend the time, overdeliver and treat your members like gold!

Fernando Veloso · 11-08-2009, 08:08 AM

Short answer YES.

Long answer, IT DEPENDS on who you are, what's your knowledge.

rizwan · 11-08-2009, 08:21 AM

ya there are lots of membership sites where anyone earns a lot of money by his own hardwork.
