Introduction Ideas that promote a business idea or service lends to the real success of internet income, both passive and active. When people are scouring the internet in an effort to find a business idea that is both profitable and productive, they are searching for a business that will offer them great flexibility. They want to find something that ideally will be easy to manage, in high demand by consumers, has the ability to bring in large amounts of interested traffickers and has the potential to make a nice little healthy side income. One such highly profitable idea that lends itself very well to online business success is the use of membership sites. Since the everincreasing popularity of the internet and the effect that it has had on consumers, online entrepreneurs are constantly searching for ways that they can significantly maximize and capitalize on the internet’s popularity and experience some of the same successes. Taking into account the flexibility that internet-based businesses offer, traffic to your paid membership site can be fairly easy to find with the right marketing, the right tools and access to high traffic areas where people are looking for lucrative business ideas.

Work-at-home scams are not without a shortage on the internet and there are more and more sites being uploaded daily in an effort to scam the next would-be entrepreneur. Quality sites have been compromised and there is a challenge in finding online traffic for your products or services. Because online societies are in abundance, people are less likely to trust everything that they read online, especially when those things are not validated by an expert or a professional, or where they are less likely to receive something of value. This is what can make paid membership sites so inviting. Customers want exclusivity and something that perhaps cannot be found just anywhere and in any setting. Customers also want freshness and change with their information and to be able to keep up-to-date with trends and variables in their area(s) of interest. This is also why paid membership sites are such a good business idea. Paid membership sites can be very easy to get started and very easy to manage. The key to making the paid membership site successful is to provide constantly changing, but fresh information for the readers to enjoy. Providing this constant stream of fresh information is relatively easy if you are passionate about your topic. This will show through to the readers and they will be more inclined to follow your updates and make your site the “go-to� place for information. They will often convey this same enthusiasm and encourage their friends to also become a member of your paid membership site.

10 Profitable Membership Ideas

In addition to you having passion about your topic and be able to convey that to your readers, there must also be a large demand for information about the topic. If there is not enough demand or interest in your topic, there will be even less interest or inclination for your readers to want to pay for the information on your site, no matter how well it is presented or how well it is prepared. The best way to determine how popular your site will be or how “indemand” the information that you provide will be is to visit other, competitive sites and blogs to see what the readers are looking for. So what types of ideas are popular as paid membership sites? What will customers pay for month-after-month to have brought to them? Let’s take a look… 1. Freelance Jobs Paid membership sites for freelance jobs have an unlimited income potential because of the type of information that they provide and for the audience that they are provided for. If they are marketed effectively, they can be a massive income producer for any online entrepreneur. Freelance job sites are in abundance all across the internet, but if you look closely, they are free and often have either outdated or recycled information that is in forums located all over the internet. Paid membership sites for freelance jobs can host opportunities for telecommute jobs in addition to online job fairs, employer site reviews and can also have salary information for jobs in states, regions and by categories.

10 Profitable Membership Ideas

A paid membership site for freelance jobs can target a variety of niche people. For example, it can include: 1.) People who have been displaced by their previous employers 2.) People who are looking to re-enter the workforce after having been absent for a substantial period of time 3.) College graduates who are looking for their first “real job” 4.) Employers who are seeking qualified candidates for their organizations. These are some examples of the type of traffic that a paid membership site for freelance jobs can expect to get. This doesn’t mean that there won’t be other niche groups who won’t be targeted for the site, but rather it will be those types of groups who will frequent the membership site. To stoke interest in members paying to be a part of this type of site idea is to provide tight, evergreen information for the members so that they can immediately see the value in paying to be a part of your site. Charging fees to the members to access your site will also allow you to provide a more substantive quality of information to them and to be able to offer exclusive, not-seen-before information. 2. Professional Speaking Professional speaking is a niche industry that is in high demand and is highly competitive in certain topic areas. As a paid membership site, professional speakers can enjoy the opportunity to find leads, connect

-8-

with other professional or aspiring speakers and find other available opportunities. A paid site in professional speaking would include offering the readers real, solid leads that have been worked out with the host organization. The lead may perhaps only require a demo tape to hire the speaker, or any other pertinent information that they would need to make the offer. The site would target professionals from other marketing forums or professional speaking organizations such as Toastmasters, the National Speaking Association and others. These organizations have huge membership bases and ready speakers who are looking for leads all of the time. 3. Marketing Marketers know the internet very well and are able to maneuver themselves around it seamlessly. Or at least they should. Online marketers aren’t all the same and do not market the same, neither do they get the same results. Although there are many qualified marketers online, the challenge may be in finding marketing tactics that work and finding ways to convert those marketing efforts into sales. Therefore, the need for a paid membership site is ideal for those marketers who are looking to increase their bottom lines but simply don’t know how. Providing information that cannot be readily found elsewhere is what makes the idea of a paid site so attractive.

Since marketers exist everywhere and in most every type of niche topic, the challenge here is going to include offering them something that cannot be found most anywhere online. You can include not only tips but personal interviews with powerful online marketers, inside information on marketing tips from successful companies and even a Q & A section of the site where marketers can ask questions that are specifically for their area(s) of expertise. 4. Personal Training Exercise and healthy living comes in waves. People search heavily for information on this topic at certain times of the year, in certain seasons and in certain life stages. Without a doubt, it is one of the most popular and sought-after information on the internet today. What people want is reliable, consistent information that comes from a field expert or someone who knows the market very, very well. As a membership site, you can provide this information to the readers in the forms of interviews, case studies, new trends and developments and in many cases, hands-on experience. As a paid site on personal training, you can gather critical information from each of your paying customers and develop a personal routine that is specialized for their bodies, lifestyles and preferences. 5. Life Coaching Everybody at some point or another needs motivating, encouraging and help. A membership site on life coaching can serve for more than just a cheerleading site. A life coaching site can offer real, applicable

tips on life and business management, assessing career paths and information on how to develop your life’s goals. Aside from reading a book, potential members should be sold on how these services can make them specifically successful. This can be sold in the form of tailored services for their own needs and requirements. The paid site can include online conferences and seminars where the host could provide an online presentation from experts in the field. As a part of this idea too, the site can also provide a pre-recorded Q & A session where the speaker could answer questions sent in by the members. This would increase traffic because the audience will look forward to having their questions answered live (if they so choose) and the other audience members can benefit from it as well. 6. Budgeting/Frugal Living Economic conditions are ideal for a paid membership site on budgeting and frugal living. Although many will balk at the idea of paying to save, if you market this idea effectively, you can present valuable information on your site that people will not mind at all paying for. The site can for instance: 1.) Give readers online resources where they can get deep, deep savings for their purchases. Work out deals with the online retailers to provide these savings to your readers if you bring business to their site. 2.) Give interviews that are from seasoned, experienced people in the financial industry who can offer sound, practical advice for your

- 11 -

readers. Don’t give them just fluff or stuff that can be found anywhere. Be sure that the information you share is timely and doable. To make the paid membership portion of the site more enticing, you can offer applicable information on topics that will get immediate results. This will include debt reduction, saving for college, moneymaking ideas and dollar stretching. 7. Dating/Relationship Sites Dating sites as paid membership sites can be a very lucrative idea for those members who are looking for healthy and serious relationships online. Since there are so many different types of relationship sites online, niche dating sites can serve specialized groups or require strict membership requirements to ensure their value and protect their reputations. Readers who are interested in dating and relationship sites are particularly serious in pursing healthy relationships online without the (probable) bad social elements that follow these sites. Nothing is guaranteed but there is less likely a chance that there would be an instance of this if there are certain guidelines and offers in place. For instance: 1.) You can offer information on relationship building and how to find the right mate. 2.) Offer interviews from relationship specialists who will give advice on what members should look for in a relationship and what types of personalities they should stay away from.

3.) Provide personality-matching tests that can be scored and reviewed by field experts and offer these to your members. 8. Travel Travel is a niche topic that is not readily explored as much on the internet as it is in the offline print world. Travel sites for paid membership could include places that are popular to visit and vacation. The site can also offer deep discounts for travel and lodging and information on little-known travel sites that are of interest to the members. To make this paid membership site enticing, a travel site can give videos blog entries of particular vacations spots, cruise ships sites and courses and any concentration on regions or areas (nationally or internationally) that interest the readers. Video blog entries will be a special highlight because they will show members more detailed information. Imagine the member being impressed over the vlog on the little tucked-away Italian bistro, or about just how huge the Statue of Liberty really is. If you provide good content for the members, they will not mind paying for access to your site. 9. Medical Advice Online medical forums are a very popular place for people to hang out. Stay-at-home parents, medical students and health-challenged individuals are all optimal traffic for these types of sites. The key to making this type of site attractive is to offer a specialized niche in a topic area. For instance, you may choose to concentrate on pediatrics

- 13 -


10 Profitable Membership Ideas

and decide to market to parenting forums and online chat rooms for parents. There is also the niche market for internal medical issues as well as concentrations on certain medical conditions. There will likely be more success if there is a niche concentration on a particular issue rather than simply trying to cover the whole idea of a medical forum in general. However, if you do decide to be general, it would be wise to stick to those things that can stay general without becoming too specific like lung-related issues or genetic disorders. The only danger in this idea is that it can be too broad and miss the niche market that it could serve. 10. Book Writers/Authors Book writers and authors can do extremely well as a paid membership site. The networking that can come as a site benefit does not include the leads and possible contracts for book writing connections that they also offer. The site can offer advice, interviews and tips on: 1.) How to write a book in 90 days 2.) Book-signing agents 3.) Funding for new authors You can also offer interviews from experienced book writers. Another idea would be to develop an online plan for the readers to follow if they are interested in writing a book in their niche area(s). Book writing sites should offer solid, valuable information for interested readers because of the scam notion involved with them. Ensure readers that your site is valuable by giving them information that is not readily found anywhere else.
