subject: Membership Site Mastermind Review [print this page] Yaro Starak has put together an awesome free ebook called the Membership Site Masterplan that does a good job of unlocking a lot of the mystery in creating membership sites from scratch.
In fact, I personally feel that the Membership Masterplan is on of the best free training resources out there for people looking to make money online!
The beauty of a membership site is that it allows you to build recurring income by offering information that people WANT to read! There really are any number ofways you can implement membership sites into what you already do online:
* Teach your readers how to do something
* Give access to special, members only resources
* Allow members first look at your next product or software package
* Do teleseminars or webinars with industry leading experts
* Hold question and answer sessions about your niche
* And on and on.
The most important aspect of starting a membership site, and it's outlined in the Membership Site Masterplan, is to make sure and choose a good niche. If you don't have a solid niche, or it's super competitive and you haven't built up any following, it's going to be difficult to get started.
Another thing to think about is marketing. How exactly do you market a membership site?
That my friends, is a little bit more difficult!
Marketing a membership site relies heavily on joint venture partnerships, affiliate marketing, pay per click marketing and is only helped when you have a strong Internet presence.
For instance, if you have a blog with good readership and a few strong social media profiles, it's going to be easier than if you are just starting out online. If that's the case though, don't fret. Not all hope is lost. There are still techniques Yaro shares that will help you out.
That's enough of my babbling though. Check out the Membership Site Masterplan by Yaro Starak. It gives lots of free tips and training and will get you started in no time!
