Yes, It’s Possible to Build a Course, Membership, Sales Page, and Website in Searchie
When you think of Searchie, you might think of video hosting—after all, Searchie was created for video hosting in the first place. However, you’d be missing out on the many ways that Searchie can serve as your business’ online presence: your website, a sales page, a course, a membership. You’d be wise to use Searchie for any and all of these! Let me explain how.
Create Your Website in Searchie
Your website can be a one-page landing page, or a complex and dynamic website with many pages and offerings. Either way, you can easily create your website using Searchie. Already using Searchie to host and organize your video? Then why would you pay another service to host your website?
Searchie makes it easy to create a website that reflects your brand, connects with payment portals, and leads customers to your offerings. Check out these examples of good looking, effective websites made in Searchie:
There’s one drawback to using Searchie as a website: it doesn't "categorize" the text on the pages, so it's not good for SEO. If you have an established site, it may not be the best option for you.
Whip Up a Sales Page in Searchie
I know that we entrepreneurs juggle multiple platforms. For example, you may be using ConvertKit in addition to Searchie and other platforms. When it comes to creating a sales page, you may think: Well, which platform should be used for the sales page?
While many platforms can be used for sales pages, I think Searchie is the easiest, and it just makes sense to use the same platform for your sales page and the program you’re selling. This way, the customer can view the sales page, sign up and pay through Stripe, and immediately begin their journey with you via Searchie.
Writing a sales page is a challenge, and a lot is riding on it. So when it comes to creating the digital version, that should be the easy part! It certainly is when you’re creating it in Searchie. Searchie has a simple-to-use interface that doesn’t require any high tech skills on the user’s part.
Not only is it easy to use, but it’s easy to make your sales page visually appealing—and reflect your branding. It’s a snap to add your brand colors to text, buttons, and backgrounds. You can add your own photos and your logo. It’s easy to connect your sales page with the course or membership that you’re offering. The customer easily goes from intrigued prospect to paid client!
Does it help you to follow a template when writing a sales page? Or perhaps you’re about to write one for the first time. I’ve got you! I’ve just released an affordable, effective guided sales page template.
Offer an Online Course in Searchie
Searchie is a match made in heaven for online course creators. Organize your video lessons into playlists, which can then be your course modules. In your Searchie Hub, add the modules with thumbnails that you create in Canva that indicate the module and the lesson.
Searchie makes it easy for your course participants to learn in whatever manner they prefer: You can offer the content in transcript form and audio form in a few keystrokes. This allows your learners to watch, read, or listen—whenever it’s convenient for them.

Host Your Membership in Searchie
The secret is out—online memberships are a great way to build a community while bringing in regular revenue. But what platform should you use to host it?
Searchie, of course! It’s a cinch to create a members-only area of your Hub—or a dedicated Hub—where you can offer your members new material monthly, archive live calls for future replays, and provide a forum for community chatting. That’s right, Searchie integrates with a number of community chat apps such as Circle.
Your membership Hub will get more and more valuable over time as the content grows and grows!
