From Blog to Business: Running a WordPress Membership Site
Channel: Boston WP
Date: 2016-07-28

I’ve been blogging about WordPress for six years. Today, I run my own business centered around my blog about WordPress.

I’ve learned a lot starting my own business and running a membership website with WordPress. In a little over a year, I’ve built a community with around 700 paying members and 12 corporate partners, making my full-time income using WordPress.

In this talk, I’ll talk about how I did it, lessons I’ve learned so far running a membership website, and tips for doing eCommerce with WordPress. I’ll also give you advice on blogging with authority for your niche.
