I would love to here from anyone who has a membersite and can give some advice.

All the best, Phil

    Some of the best membership sites out there are the software services like autoresponders Aweber and GetResponse. Also SEO software like SENuke and Brute Force SEO.

    In terms of teaching/content membership sites NicheProfitClassroom seems to do very well as do backlink packet memberships like Angela and Paul's.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the input I use aweber, but never thought at looking at their site for ideas, I agree it is a great site and very functional and informative.

    I am looking more towards membership sites for people in general not just for IMers.

    Thanks, Phil

    Then sadly go check out as many porn sites as you can bare to look at. They are the leading edge of content delivery for the general public and they're usually about 2 years ahead of even the IM crowd because there's so much more money there.

    I wasn't thinking of doing any "research" in that area. I might have to take a peep strictly for business purposes.

    Dating sites are also "successful membership sites"...

    That said, I would rather focus on your niche's needs instead of 'successful sites'. Give them what they want and are willing to pay for and you will be successful

    My site is doing well. I went live on the internet last December.

    What exactly do you want to know about membership sites?

    In my opinion, you should have a unique product and offer some freebies. What kind of membership site were you considering?

    What I did was I thought of something I knew something about that is membership based. Google that with affiliate behind it, like I did match.com affiliate and now I get paid every month for members I recruit. The sky is pretty much the limit.

    Membership sites are good if you teach or provide a service...

      Lisa is 100% right. So long as you deliver quality content, info and as needed some decent tech support, you can thrive with a membership site. You might also do some recon on Russell Brunson and his "continuity" model.

    Hi,

    The membership will be a football tipster site done using joomla, I have already built some of the site.

    Any tips from people who have membership sites appreciated.

    Thanks for the input so far.

      I have a membership site. From my feedback from members, I've noticed that they are all appreciative of the 'free' information/resources I offer.

      There's are good books such as "Cashvertising" and "Persuasion", that explain the psychological principle of GIVING something to people and they feel compelled to RECIPROCATE the gift.

      This works quite well with a memebership site because you are asking them for money, so, you should give them something of value first.

    StomperNet is probably the king of membership sites. A license to print money...

    Happyguy - no problem. Hopefully it'll give you lots of useful ideas

    The Early to Rise folks have always been really good at this.

    I think I am right in saying Russel Brunson is involved with a few good membership sites or micro-continuity sites.

    For me, Lee Mcintyre's memberships seem to be very good.

    The trouble I found with the big membership sites was that you get a 1000 people all doing the same thing and it kills the effectiveness.

    I run a small botique membership training site that does quite well and have quite a few students.

    How to set up your own online business Internet Marketing Course

    Rather than trying to follow a system we concentrate on teaching skills and pick up mainly small business owners.
