How much should I charge for my subscriptions

4 replies
My new (pre-launch) subscription site is a daily live streaming video site with financial related content and I'd like to determine it's true subscription value in a way that I can post on my website.
This is my idea: I want to probably give my subscriptions at NO charge, but that sort of implies a LOW value service, and it is NOT at all a low value serice. It's live streaming content 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
It's time sensitive financial market related.
My business model will be to offer this part of my site for free to build a user list and then eventually sell enhancments or added value services or other types of content to them.
I want my users to appreciate and realize the value that I am offering for free, and that is why I need to determine it's true value of what I should or could be charging for it. I'd like to post that near the membership login.
Any opinions on it's subscrition price value or suggestions how I can determine it's subscription price value in a documentable way or believable sort of way?
Thanks in advance for your expertise
John

    Need to make something clear, my site is a financial related site which has a live streaming video page to it which has one streaming video. It's not a streaming video site like mete cafe or you tube etc.

    Forgot to ask one more thing. I see Donate buttons on sites that offer free content. From your experience do donate buttons generate decent income or are they good idea or bad idea?
    thanks again

    Well, ask yourself a more realistic question.

    How much more money can a person expect to make using your site and how realistic is it that they will get more money?

    If the answer is a lot and realistically for many people, then you know you can charge a lot...
