The best examples come from online newspapers such as <em>The New York Times<\/em>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paywalling content enables you to leverage your blog's popularity to convince part of its audience to pay a recurring membership:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/paid-blog-subscriptions.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"507\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/paid-blog-subscriptions.png\" alt=\"The New York Times subscription page\" class=\"wp-image-52205\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/paid-blog-subscriptions.png 800w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/paid-blog-subscriptions-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/paid-blog-subscriptions-768x487.png 768w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/paid-blog-subscriptions-268x170.png 268w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/paid-blog-subscriptions-700x444.png 700w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/paid-blog-subscriptions-156x99.png 156w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">#image_title<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>MemberPress enables you to paywall content and create recurring subscriptions that give users access to it.

Start a Research Library<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the best things about MemberPress is you can use it to protect any kind of content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The core plugin allows you to protect pages. But you can use the <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/addons\/downloads\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Downloads add-on<\/a> to restrict access to other kinds of files, like PDFs, PSDs, and all types of compressed files:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/research-library.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"478\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/research-library.png\" alt=\"An online research library\" class=\"wp-image-52207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/research-library.png 800w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/research-library-300x179.png 300w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/research-library-768x459.png 768w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/research-library-285x170.png 285w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/research-library-700x418.png 700w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/research-library-156x93.png 156w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>This versatility can enable you to publish <strong>research magazines<\/strong>, <strong>course videos<\/strong>, and other <strong>files <\/strong>to create a research library. A library that focuses on a specific discipline can be extremely valuable. Therefore, you can charge users to subscribe to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Paywall_Livestreams\"><\/span>4. Paywall Livestreams <span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you run a business or provide professional services, there might be an audience willing to pay to hear you speak about it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aside from selling online courses, you can host livestreams where you talk about specific aspects of your industry and provide value to professionals that are just starting their journey in the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A WordPress website with MemberPress is the perfect channel to host these livestreams. You can <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/addons\/crowdcast-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">integrate MemberPress with Crowdcast<\/a> and host paywalled streams for your business audience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Start_an_Online_Magazine\"><\/span>5.

You can create multiple membership tiers and publish either PDFs or online articles that subscribers get access to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Running an online magazine can require a great deal of work, particularly if you want to publish it often. However, as your magazine grows and you create a backlog of editions, it encourages more readers to sign up for it:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/digital-magazine-subscription.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"418\" src=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/digital-magazine-subscription.png\" alt=\"An example of a digital magazine subscription\" class=\"wp-image-52208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/digital-magazine-subscription.png 800w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/digital-magazine-subscription-300x157.png 300w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/digital-magazine-subscription-768x401.png 768w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/digital-magazine-subscription-325x170.png 325w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/digital-magazine-subscription-700x366.png 700w, https:\/\/memberpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/digital-magazine-subscription-156x82.png 156w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>The more subscribers you get, the more passive income the magazine can generate.

That's why selling software on your own website may be a better option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This gives you full control over marketing. Plus, you don't have to pay a fee to the platform. MemberPress Downloads is the perfect option in this scenario. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, if you're able to convince other developers to host their software, you can create a full-blown marketplace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Set_Up_a_Premium_Forum\"><\/span>9.

They encourage users to check their posts multiple times per day and to establish discussions with peers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you run a forum for a popular niche, chances are you won't have to worry too much about finding a stable user base.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the niche, users might be willing to pay a subscription or one-time fee for access to the forum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MemberPress integrates with forum plugins <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/addons\/bbpress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">such as bbPress<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/memberpress.com\/addons\/buddypress\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">BuddyPress<\/a>, enabling you to charge users for registering with your forum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_Start_a_Premium_Site\"><\/span>10.
