Membership Sites On Blogs – Top 5 Success Tips

One of the most rewarding and potentially irritating concepts related to making money on line is residual income. Everyone wants residual income. Not many people are able to succeed in getting long term, residual income coming into their home on a regular basis. A membership site is a great way to generate residual income. There are a lot of new programs available that allow you to build a membership site on a WordPress blog. Read on to get the top tips I have found to make this set up work for you:

1. Need to drip content – You need to be able to send your content out on a regular basis. You need to control how your content goes out so that your customers are happy and stay connected to your site. You need to make sure that this task is very automated, as you can spend 100% of your time managing content if you don’t have a great system. Your content is your lifeline to happy customers and profitability.

2. Need to protect your content – There are a lot of thieves that spend all of their time finding ways to steal content from people and post it all over the internet. There are even sites that sole reason for existing is to provide content from paid products for free. You need to be aware of this, and protecting of your valuable information needs to be at the top of your list when building a membership site. People are not going to pay for your great information when they can get it for free. I do not like to have to write about this type of concept, but unfortunately it is harsh reality and must be dealt with.

3. Need to take recurring transactions easily – You have to be able to take you customer’s money easily. You must be able to set up subscriptions and recurring billing. I do not recommend starting out with a merchant account, so you will need to use an on line payment processor to take your membership fees. You also need to make sure that members do not continue to get access to your content if they quit paying. This needs to be pretty automated if you are going to get the hundreds of customers that will allow you to make a good living on line.

4. Need to be able to update and scale content easily – This is another key tip. You will want to start your membership site with a reasonable amount of content. I recommend having a 90 day supply in your blog system before you start out. If this is not possible, you are going to have to add content to keep your customers beyond a three month time frame. You want to make sure you have the means to update and grow your content very easily. This will help you maintain happy customers and grow your site in a reasonable fashion.

5. Need a simple, robust system to tie it all together - Your best path to making good money in a membership site is to provide great content and excellent customer service. The more functionality that is “built into” your membership site admin area the better. The best membership site software platforms strike a great balance between having many necessary features that are very simple to master and use. Make sure you do your due diligence before selecting a membership site software platform.
