What is an online course?

It’s pretty simple!

An online course is a collection of videos that teach about a certain subject. 

Anyone can create an online course about anything! 

In this post, I’ll give you the best online course platforms, so you can start brainstorming!

Why should I create an online course?

Great question! Here are 5 reasons you should create an online course:

1. Not super hard to create

With some guidance of course — that’s where I come in!


2. Low start-up cost

You don’t have to spend much money to start an online course business.


3. Impact more people

Your online course has the potential to help people all over the world!

4. Work from anywhere 

An online course is just that — ONLINE! You can create and sell your course from anywhere in the world with an internet connection.


5. Potential to earn passive income

This is my favorite, and why I love online courses. 

Where should I host my online course?
