How Much Content Should I Have Available Before Launching My Membership Site to the Public?

Do not keep worrying about the quantity of content you need to have for your membership site now. What you have to keep in mind is that you need to stay just ahead of the first customer but not too far ahead. Do not kill yourself creating several months’ worth of content. When creating content do it in large batches but not to this extend.

You will find few things more demoralizing than working yourself to death creating a lot of content. Writing all these Articles, making the necessary audio and video and making information for the whole year only for your site to turn out to be a complete failure. All this work coming to nothing will be surely disheartening.

Avoid setting yourself up for this fall by creating just the amount of content you need, you can actually launch your membership site when you only have 14 days worth of content. I would advise you launch your site and wait if people join. Create just enough content to stay ahead of these first customers. This way you don’t end up creating loads, you do not have to create a whole years content before hand. Don’t put in the extra effort before you are sure that there may be favorable returns.

This is a good method because you can make corrective changes by considering what is appealing to people, what they actually do not like, what questions you are often asked by these first customers and what reasons they give for joining your membership site in the first place. All this is hard for you to accurately guess if you don’t try it first. Sometimes their reasons for joining you may not be the same as what you had in mind.

One thing you must not do is to find your self in a situation where you are always in a rush to beat the deadline for the submission of content. You have to prevent the maintenance of this site from becoming something of a chore. The way to do this is to write your sites content in big batches. If the site demands for one blog post every week, write more than three each time. This will allow you to be free for the three weeks and you may just get better ideas for more content when you are in this relaxed state of mind. Incase you intend to shoot a video for members to buy each week, consider recording three such videos, schedule them and enjoy your freedom for the next three weeks.

Always ensure that you stay ahead of your first member to join, don’t create too much content but limit yourself to something like two weeks content. Don’t let your site to be threadbare; record a few audio and video together with the articles.
