What is a Membership Site?
A membership site is a gated website where individuals commonly pay for access to high-value content. A membership site enables the website owner, to earn recurring income by selling memberships to users.

The content available on membership websites could be

Why should you launch a membership site?
Membership sites are a great way for specialists or mentors in their respective fields or specialties to make their content available to the users. Membership websites are a great way to earn passive income while you work on your day job. It is a great way to earn a (generally) un-involved, recurring income given that you continually update your site with fresh and relevant content. Members of your website will have access to your content.
