Do It Yourself – Website Tutorials
If you have an amazing course, you also should have an amazing website for your course(s). In this LearnDash tutorial, I show you how to create an online course website that will be fully automated. Visitors who visit your website can buy a course, pay the money through Paypal, Stripe, or another payment option you provide, and get access to the course immediately.
I will show you how to get a domain name and Webhosting, install WordPress, install the Astra theme and how to get LearnDash. Then we will create our first course, add some information about our course, add a thumbnail and create the outline of our course through sections (chapters, modules) and lessons. Then we will fill in the content of all the lessons using a page builder or using videos.
Then we will add WooCommerce in order to sell our course using a decent checkout and we will install Cartflows in order to create a landing page with the WooCommerce checkout option.
We will add a payment provider like Paypal or Stripe Creditcard to the course and let new users create their own username and password when they checkout so they will have access to the course, just after they finish paying for the course. All on autopilot!
We will add a second course, bundle multiple courses so people can buy more courses at once with a special discount and we will sell lifetime access and subscriptions on courses.
We will integrate Stripe as a payment provider so the money people pay for your courses will go automatically to your bank account.
After applying everything you see in the tutorial you will have an automated course website and start to earn money while helping other people.
