A listener wants to create a review site for online learning platforms.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1259
What kind of review platform would be best for online learning? Today’s caller has applied her skills her observation to notice a simple fact: tons of people are doing online learning of all kinds these days, but it can also be overwhelming. She wants to create a review website or platform. What might be a logical, feasible path to pursue?"Hi, Chris, this is Lisa from Merriam, Kansas. And I really like the show. Lately I've even been listening while watching my two little boys. Anyway, my side hustle idea is a review website for online art and design courses. I found some generic reviews of the online learning platforms, but no web sites focused on my niche with all of the people stuck at home and doing online training. I think this idea can be very successful. I also think I'm the right person to build it because I have a background in graphic and web design along with some freelance writing experience. My question is what kind of review web site would be best? I could easily create a review, blog and WordPress. But I don't want to be the sole reviewer forever. Maybe a year at most. I envision it having an aggregate review system because that seems more practical, but it's also more daunting for me to create than a blog review site. How would I find people and convince them to leave reviews in my nothing site? Or is it possible to do a hybrid of the two? Or am I overthinking it? Thanks. And I look forward to your answer."Listen to today's episode to learn more...
