Easiest way to set up premium membership?

by Lunar
15 replies
Hi everyone, I'm interested in setting up a premium section of my site for paid members only. What are the easiest tools out there for doing this? I know there are solutions for setting this up other than programming it myself, but after a look around online I haven't found anything yet.

Anyone know? Does paypal have an easy system? Or some way to do premium aweber mailing lists?

Thanks in advance!

    You can use Digital Access Pass. It integrates with paypal and aweber both.
    There are also other programs like Wishlist etc.

      Thanks for the suggestion but WHOA! Nearly $200? And the site looks kind of scammy...

      Any others?

          That's funny.

          What is exactly is scammy? Perhaps you need to name it something like: Killer Commando Cash Sucking Member Software?

          Shame on you Ravi for not following the sheeple!!

          DAP is an awesome script. Highly recommended.

        Not my style, either, but 'scammy' is kind of a strong word. I get what you mean, though.

        I haven't used DAP, but I can tell you the product is nothing like scammy. I was talking to a friend about this stuff, a guy who consults with billionaires and Fortune 100 CEOs, and DAP was what he recommended personally. Uses it on at least one site of his own.

        Dude doesn't gush much about tech products, usually. That left an impression on me. That and the regular flow of positive comments we get from Ravi's customers here about it.

      Sorry, I didn't mean to be offensive. It just didn't seem like the type of site I was expecting. :-P

    Try Wordpress Plugins. Have not used one myself, but I'm fairly sure there's a free one.

      Really sorry, I feel embarrassed.

      But if you really want to know, I was just talking about the css/web design layout, for example I haven't seen HTML tables or animating GIF's in years. I'm more used to sites that look like like http://dailyburn.com/ or http://www.shopify.com/. It just made me feel unsafe about using the service.

      I didn't mean any disrespect. Maybe I'm not in your target market.

        LOL... I don't think Ravi will be offended.

        Don't let his website fool you. I believe flewsqueeze.com uses his script.

          Sal,

          You're right - have developed far too thick skin after being in the "technical" industry for over 10 years :-)

          BTW, yes - http://FlexSqueeze.com (I know that's what you meant) uses DAP.
