There are a lot of aspects to consider when creating a membership site. Aside from the tech stack, you need to determine what you’re going to offer and why it’s compelling.

Back in 2017, I tried launching a Patreon for this very show, after hitting 50,000 downloads in 9 months. It was an epic failure! As a relaunch memberships for this site 4 years later, I reflect on the Patreon: how I overpromised, how I underdelivered, and what lessons I carried into my new membership, Build Something Club.
Accessibility is an important of often overlooked aspect of web development. While some view it as an added expense, many don’t even know they’re doing anything wrong.

Jennifer Bourn has been successfully running Profitable Project Plan, her training program for freelancers and small business owners, for several years.

Over on Casabona.org, I’ve written blog posts for the past several years, but I’ve never recorded my thoughts. So this year, along with a blog post, I decided to do a podcast episode too – this lets me ramble a little more and add some thoughts on 2021. I hope you enjoy!
Well 2020 was unlike any year I’ve lived through, and I’m sure it’s the same for you.

I wanted focus on topics that could help you (and me) grow at a time where we were traveling less, seeing less foot traffic, and had to change in some way to make ends meet. I settled on coming up with good content, and using that content to evolve memberships, and build communities. If you didn’t catch every episode, here are the highlights.
In September 2020, my 4th book published by a publisher (6th overall) came out. It’s called HTML and CSS: Visual QuickStart Guide and it’s a (very) beginner’s guide to learning HTML and CSS.
