Sell access to a content library
Step 1
Create content library pages on your website
First, build the pages you’ll need to organize and manage your content library. (These are the “secret” pages only your members will see!)
There are a few ways you can do this, based on how many pieces of content you have, how you’d like to organize them for members, and how you see your content library growing in the future. Some popular options:
- One page with all of your content
- A “homepage” with categories of content linking out to category pages
- Individual pages of content, using our Member Menu for member navigation
If you use multiple pages for your content library, we recommend structuring your URLs so your pages are all nested within a “parent” page, like this:
yourwebsite.com/contentlibrary
yourwebsite.com/contentlibrary/welcome
yourwebsite.com/contentlibrary/category-1
yourwebsite.com/contentlibrary/category-2
yourwebsite.com/contentlibrary/category-3
Step 2
Protect your pages with MemberSpace
After building your content library pages on your website, you’ll protect these pages with MemberSpace so only members can have access. If you’ve structured your pages with the nested format above, you can protect all pages en masse.
If you’d like to use a public page to “tease” your content library content, you can keep your highest-level page (e.g. yourwebsite.com/contentlibrary) public and only protect the category and content pages nested within that.
🔐 Optional
For an added layer of protection, you can add our extra security code to each of your protected pages. For even more security, you can add content files (documents, videos, etc.) to your protected pages with MemberSpace Content Links.
Step 3
Set a price for access
Now that your content is protected (so only members can see it), you’ll create a plan that gives them access!
MemberSpace offers flexible payment options so you can choose the billing format that works best for your needs:
- Recurring payment (e.g. $100 per month)
- Multiple payment (e.g. 3 payments of $100)
- One-time payment (e.g. 1 payment of $100)
- Free (no payment)
If your content library will be regularly updated and added to, choose recurring payment. This means you’ll continue getting paid as you continue to add more valuable content for your members.
If you offer various products (like a content library + an online community), you can sell different tiers of access by creating multiple plans and differentiating which plans have access to higher-tier content.
Step 4
Add the signup link to your website
And your content library is live! 🚀

Marketing your content library
Your new content library is full of value for your members — offering them a sneak peek via a free trial or sharing a coupon code can be a great way to show them how they’ll benefit from access.
You can promote your content library anywhere you can paste a link — share your signup page URL in emails, social media bios, video descriptions, and more.
