Membership Website Starter Kit
Create Your Own Awesome Membership Website Today!
Whether you’re looking to create a website for people to pay to be a part of a community, want to sell courses online or are just looking for an alternative for Patreon that you have complete control over, let’s work together to make your new website a reality in less than two weeks for a great price!
Create Your Community
Build an Awesome Community in a Place That You Control
One of the best parts about the internet today is that not only can you find awesome communities of people who might like the same things you do or live in the same region or find some other way to connect, but you can also build them with your own website.
The Membership Website Starter Kit helps you build your own amazing community of people. Whether you are wanting to create a simple community website where people who like a shared interest or live in the same geographical area can meet up and talk to people or you want to create an online course where people can learn from what you have to teach them, you’ll be able to build it quickly and for a price that will be extremely affordable compared to creating a completely custom website.
Or if you’re a content creator that‘s looking to create something outside of the typical Patreon ecosystem where you control everything — from taking in more money compared to the Patreon option to being able to customize every part of your website to being able to sell merch right from the same website, let’s work together to help you make that a reality.
You’re so close to being able to build an amazing website that allows you to create an awesome community!
A Helping Hand
Build Your Website with Professional Help
Creating a membership website might seem easy. After all, there are so many tools that say that it is.
But building a website that does what you need it to — like take payments, manage content so that only members can see it, etc. — can be a challenge. What tools do you use to build the website? How do you take payments? How do you create a website that helps both you and your community?
With the Membership Website Starter Kit, you won’t have to worry about any of that. Over the course of my time creating websites, I’ve learned what works and doesn’t work and can build you the solution that’s going to work the best for your website. And once the website is launched, I’ll make sure you know how to do everything you need to do on your website.
In the end, you’ll end up with a perfect website that’s going to help you and your community thrive in today’s world. And every step of the way, there will be someone who can help guide you along the right path.
Give Your Community an Online Home
Create an Awesome Community of People
Communities are awesome. There is something great about being around people who like the same thing as you or work in a similar profession. And it’s great to connect with people who might live in the same area as you. It’s the best part about the human experience.
The Membership Website Starter Kit can help you create that type of amazing community for people with a similar interest, work in the same industry or even who like the awesome content that you create online. Here you’ll be able to build a website that allows you to take dues or subscriptions and craft an online experience that promotes interaction and produces an awesome community.
And the best part is that the framework for that community won’t have to be built by yourself alone. I’ll create the digital framework; you bring in the awesome people to populate the community.
Set Up Subscriptions Easily
The Perfect Alternative to Patreon
Patreon might be a good place to get started as a content creator looking to make money from what you can create, but it has its limitations. You’re locked into their digital real estate. They take a good chunk of payments and you don’t have complete control over how your page looks. Plus, you’re competing with other content creators on the site.
Creating your own website where people can pay you directly to see your awesome content can free you from those limitations. With your own website, the sky is the limit with what you can do. You don’t have to worry about a third party taking out part of your payment. You can customize your website to look the way you want it to look. And you can add in all the functionality you want for the site.
Having your own website can help you create an awesome community around your content. And the best part is that you’ll own it all!
Let People Subscribe to Your Work
One of the attractions to Patreon is your ability to have people pay a subscription to view your great content. But with your new membership website, you’ll be able to replicate that same functionality without the hassle of dealing with a third party. People can pay you directly to see your awesome work.
Take Your Pick of Payment Gateways
There are a lot of different ways for people to pay to view your amazing content. And you won’t be locked into just one. Instead, you’ll be able to choose which payment gateway you want to go with so you can use the one that’s best for your community.
Control Who Gets to See What
Setting different levels of subscriptions to view different pieces of content is a great way to let your subscribers find a way to support you that works with their budget. You’ll be able to set those different subscription levels and control what level sees what pieces of your great content in an easy-to-manage way.
Sell Products Through Your Website
Selling merch around your content is a great way to help you grow your revenue stream. And with your new membership website you’ll be able to easily add in a store to sell your cool merch. And people won’t have to even leave your website to buy it. A win-win for everyone!
Unlimited Control
The Sky’s the Limit with What You Can Do!
But you’re not just limited to what’s listed here for your awesome website. Really the sky is the limit for what you can do on your website.
For example, you can add in a newsletter that people can subscribe to to extend your reach. Or you can add a dedicated livestream page for whenever you want to go live to your community. Or maybe add in a blog.
Let’s take a look at a sampling of what else you’ll be able to do with your new community website.

Your website will be built with speed in mind so that it loads as quickly as possible. You’ll never have to worry about your website loading slowly again.
Google Business Profile Set Up
A Google Business Profile is crucial for any local organization. It’s how you can easily get found in Google “near me” or Map searches. But getting it set up can be a time-consuming process. With the purchase of an Membership Website Starter Kit, I’ll set up a Google Business Profile account for your community. That way you can quickly start to show up in the searches that matter.

All you’ll have to worry about is running and growing your awesome community!

SEO is crucial for every website out there so that it can get found in Google searches. But it can be a tricky thing to learn, and it’s a time-consuming process.

The Essentials
What Every Website Comes With
Frequently Asked Questions
What do I need to provide?
You will be responsible for providing a purchased domain name, branding assets, content and the products you want for your store at launch. We can talk more about this at the initial meeting.
What if I don’t have a domain right now?
There’s no need to worry if you don’t already have your domain. I can help you purchase a domain (since you should always be in control of your domain name) and how to pick the right domain name for your business.
How long will this process take?
If everything goes according to plan, the website build should take no longer than two weeks. As long as you have all of your content (including products and their prices, images and description) at the start of the process, it should move really quickly.
What will happen after the website is launched?
Once the website is launched, I’ll provide a live training call to walk you through how to use the website. You’ll also have access to a knowledge base that you can access to see how to do various things.
As long as you choose a WordPress Website Starter Kit, I’ll take care of the technical side of your website, including WordPress core, plugin and theme updates, security issues, emergency fixes and more.
