subject: Member's Program Websites [print this page] When a individual pays a fee to utilize the information and or data of the web page you possess and has a password then your web site becomes a membership site. It can be a worthwhile business as customers pay you for exclusive articles, facts or all sorts of services such as: video games, motion pictures, music, software, eBooks etc and it is a good way to generate some money using your knowledge, profession or even hobbies. And it seems that this type of business really works with the users as there are more and more requests for membership sites and their articles.
Regular membership sites are the simplest way to get a monthly income without working over hour, having a fixed schedule, just working at home, on your computer and letting others to pay to see your work. You can start by writing an article and posting it on a web site. Then you should find at lest one customer for the beginning who will pay you an amount of money weekly, and then you should try to extend it at a more substantial number of customers. There are two types of membership sites.
Traditional membership sites unfortunately it seems that starting a membership site in the traditional way is very hard. Firstly because starting a traditional membership site requires too much work: deciding on topics, installing scripts, getting education materials, making a library, starting a discussion board and all the things that a membership site requires; all this can be too time-consuming and too hard-working.
Sometimes individuals can not think of other content to write about even if you feel you are a expert in writting articles. Another bad thing about these conventional membership sites is that you have to struggle all the time to get new subscribers because none of them will carry on for ever and you never know when they will feel the need to depart, so you have to get other to take their places.
If you can send weekly articles and data to customers and or clients this is called a fixed-term membership and is much more efficient and less stressful. Their benefits are opposite to the drawbacks of the conventional account sites: it can be setup in forty-eight hours or less, it is easier to maintain, it takes very little time and keeps your buyers active.
