Thinking about starting a membership site but aren't sure where to start? Here are 25 ideas you can use today to get your membership site off the ground!

What's a membership site? The concept is pretty simple.

A website that requires users to sign up for access to any “protected content” is considered a membership site. Whether that protected content is available for free or for a fee doesn't matter. It also doesn't matter whether the entire site or just a few parts of the site are protected.

For example, consider an online women's clothing store that has a VIP community. Anyone can shop on the site without an account. But if someone signs up for the VIP community, they get special sale alerts, discounts, and a regular newsletter. Because the store has a VIP community that requires sign up, we'd consider it a membership site.

The fact that a user has to sign up to access some of a website's content is what makes that site a membership site.
