I think most people use OptimizePress to mainly create landing / squeeze pages for their marketing campaigns (unless I am mistaken). Membership sites are actually very good — after you grow to a certain extent, you can even start charging people for premium membership (but you have to offer something special).

Hi there,

Great plugin, but what I’m looking for should be a plugin that operates similar to Facebook. Whereby members create a profile and updates it with info and pics.

Do you know of any plugin that works like that?

Thanks Steven.

Speaking of Optimize Press, will someone please tell me what video software they used to make the sales video? Like, the beginning looks like a basic slideshow thing with text, while the rest is a screen capture of him making a sales page. Can someone please tell me how he made the beginning slideshow part?

There are some services that provide membership sites for a non-WordPress site, but the ones I’ve seen aren’t cheaper. For example, Kajabi is great for this, and they start at $97 per month. I wouldn’t say $97 one-time is a bit costly for this plugin, even for a less than moderately successful membership site. I also love working within WordPress, so I don’t do too much research on web tools outside of it.
