Q: Hi there, I have a bestselling course on Udemy with a pretty large following and I am looking to expand to my own platform.
I am very interested in a couple of services like OnlineCourseHost and the answer to these questions would make my decision:
1. On the website, I can only see an example of a course page, where can I see an example of a homepage? Like if I go to Udemy, it won't go directly to a course, it would go to a homepage that advertises some of their top courses, can I create a homepage similar to the popular online course websites? My main concern is a beautifully designed, robust homepage with a section for featured courses, featured instructors, and featured digital products.
2. I would like to offer free PDFs, free mini-courses, and free 7-day challenges as lead magnets, are there built-in funnel pages to accommodate this? For example; I set up a Facebook ad for a free PDF on how to Audit Your Social Media for Business. After clicking the ad, they go to a landing page where they can learn about the PDF, read testimonials, and give their email address which takes them to an upsale page. This up-sale may be to sign up for my Social Media Marketing Course. If they decline, then a down-sale page for a low-cost or free 7-day challenge. Can I set up these multiple pages on OnlineCourseHost? If so, can I do this for multiple funnels with different lead magnets?
3. Is it possible to sell courses individually with the option to subscribe like Domestika?
Thank you so much for your time answering these.

You can create a courses page and a home page, here is an example of a courses page https://boostrand.onlinecoursehost.com/courses You can add categories, etc. You can offer free PDFs and mini courses, and create 7 day challenges using the Drip functionality. You can integrate with ads, etc. We are in the process of creating a website builder with a page editor allowing you to create custom website pages, but right now it's not possible yet to create custom pages other than the Courses page, the home page and the course sales page. you can sell subscriptions, yearly, monthly or both.
Thank you so much for the quick response. I teach under the name Patrick Gamaliel. Right now I only have 4 courses up and I’m doing post production on 2 more right now. Course creation just became my full time job so I hope to quadruple my course offerings this year. Again, thank you so much.
