How to avoid Membership Site from being ripped?

4 replies
I am trying to upload my online video course. I know I need a membership site.

However, I have test run a lot of wordpress membership plug-ins and platform, and all of them can be ripped with certain video ripping software.

May I know what membership plug-ins or platform that can't be ripped?

Thank you

    They all can... Now that, that is out of the way... just move on... be sure to BRAND each video, a floating logo in the bottom right corner or the like. IF your content is that good... it can only helpyou and not harm youin the long run.

    I am going to be a bit bold here... the only reason this is a concern to you is because you do it... not everyone does... barely anyone does. Get beyond what you think, and just let the market decide

    And seriously... just dont worry about it.

    Yup. Anyone can buy access to the program, go in there and sit with a screen recorder and gobble all that content up...to resell later if they want.

    I've had a membership site program for the past 10 years and maybe people have stolen it. I don't care. People buy it, and I keep adding to it. Most regular people are not going to think or act upon "How can I get this cheaper? I wonder if someone is reselling it illegally for a lower price?"

      I haven't seen your material yet for sales from these thieves. But many popular programs can be bought for pennies on the dollar, if you know which site to use.

      I was very excited to once see one of my programs on E-Bay for a few dollars. But not yet on one of these sites that sell programs.

      My guess is that, when you sell any program (on membership sites or not), someone is going to copy the program and sell it or share it with a few friends. I suspect there are several shadow buyers that do just that. If they ask for a refund after a few days, I would assume this is what happened.

      I consider it free advertising.

    This seems to be an unavoidable problem, if you choose to see it that way. They may be able to steal your videos, but they cant steal you.

    Brand your videos, include links and sections that go back to your website, your face, customer testimonials if possible in the outro, and any form of your intellectual property in each video, and turn this negative into a positive.

    That way if the person trying to rip your videos tries to claim it as theirs, it will be super hard for them to do so. Or if they try to use your content on their site, it's 100% free advertising for you.
