Membership sites have exploded in popularity recently and the idea is easy enough to implement. It does, however, require having an existing audience of some sort.
For example, Mark Manson runs a popular self-development blog. On his site, there’s a membership portion that gives users access to online courses, videos, and additional article commentary. For fans of his work, it’s a great deal.
People are already visiting your website because they like what you write about and how you use your style. So, you can create a membership section of your site that offers premium content.
Now, every single person who visits your site won’t take you up on the offer, but your dedicated fans will find it irresistible.
The type of membership site you create will depend upon the kind of site you run and the level of depth you want to go with your premium content.
