If you’re looking to add your online course to a marketplace with an existing audience, Udemy might be the right option for you.
To earn money from your online course, you’ll have to be a premium instructor and meet their course requirements, including a minimum of 30 minutes of video content and five lectures. Instructors can also add quizzes, discussions, and assignments to the courses.
Because everything is hosted and sold on their platform, there is a revenue-sharing model used when courses are sold. According to Udemy’s website, “instructors receive 97% of the revenue when the student purchases their content using an instructor’s coupon or referral link. Instructors receive 37% of the revenue for any Udemy sales where no instructor coupon or course referral link was used.”
