Teaching what you know online can be the best thing you can do for your audience. More and more bloggers, entrepreneurs, and freelancers are adding online courses in addition to their blogs.
It’s a great way to help others while establishing yourself as an expert in your field.
One of the first things you’re going to need when launching a course is a piece of software for creating your content.
Courses are not the same as blog posts. For one, a course needs to be accessed by registered students and not just anyone who lands on your site. It doesn’t matter if you’re offering a free or paid course, you need to have some kind of student profile to track your students’ progress.
The next feature for paid courses is a payment gateway. There should be a way for you to accept payment when a user enrolls in your course.
PayPal, Stripe, and 2Checkout are popular online payment gateways that are available for online course integration.
These and more features are now accessible with WordPress plugins. You don’t have to hire a developer to build a simple eLearning site. If you want, you can even use your existing WP site to host your course.
These eLearning plugins work like regular plugins in WordPress, where you install them and access their control panel from the WordPress dashboard.
In some cases, you may need to install add-ons to add more functions to the main eLearning plugin.
Let’s take a look at these plugins and what they can do to help you create and publish courses on your site.
