Subscription Models
There are several types of subscription models for membership websites. Choosing the right one depends on the type of site and target audience.
- Recurring Subscriptions: Monthly, quarterly, or yearly subscriptions that auto-renew (common for dating, education, or SaaS websites).
- One-Time Payment: Users pay a single fee for lifetime access to certain content (e.g., access to an exclusive course or e-book).
- Freemium Model: Offers basic services for free while charging for premium features (common in SaaS, gaming, or dating websites).
Example:
- Dating site: Free users can browse profiles, but premium users can send unlimited messages.
- Online learning platform: Free tier includes limited course access, while paid tiers offer certificates and one-on-one mentorship.
