I’ve been reading and Hearing an Internet Buzz that there might be a plugin available that could turn a Wordpress blog into a membership site.
If that were true more, what could be better?…
I did some searching and guess what’s at the top of the list? Wishlist Member
The list of features include:
- Unlimited Membership Levels
- Simple Installation With New or Existing WordPress Blog
- Flexible Membership Options
- Sequential Content Delivery
- Control Viewed Content
- Shopping Cart Integration
- Easy Member Management
- Multi-Level Access
- Total Content Protection
- Secure RSS Feeds
- Subscription Length Control
- Login Redirection
- Create Your Membership Site Using WordPress & WL Member
- “Sneak Peak” Content Display
- Custom Error Pages
- Partial Content Display
Wishlist Member can be integrated with your shopping cart of choice (Clickbank), Aweber autoresponder, 1ShoppingCart, PayPal, Cydec, Autoresponseplus and GetResponse and generic systems.
The single license version of Wishlist Member is $97 and the multiple license version is $297. With a 30-day refund policy, If you plan on operating more than one membership blog, I would strongly suggest the multiple license option
After buying Wishlist Member, there are some tutorial videos that you should watch.
You can set up 8 modules… 1 being the lowest level and 8 being the highest. You can restrict member access by post, page, categories and comments, You can have a sequential upgrade that slowly introduces content over time and input some articles.
In case I gave the wrong impression, the video tutorials are accessible without having 
to purchase the product. Just click on the button to the right When you get there… On the Right hand side you will see a list of videos available to watch and learn from.
Wishlist Member is a GREAT choice for bloggers who want to set up their own membership sites, especially in terms of ease of set up and price.
Wishlist Member gets a 10 and my HIGHEST recommendation.
Here’s a video that shows the results of those 30-minutes, as well as how membership content is protected, even when someone is smart enough to figure out the URL of a higher-level module.
