Update: Blog and Course Mailing Lists

Because of recent changes on Udemy, I have decided to start my own mailing lists for both my training course and my blog. I had previously looked into doing this, but wasn’t sure it was worth the effort, especially since WordPress has its own email sign-up. However after unpublishing my course on Udemy, I have realized that I cannot always rely on these platforms to share my goals and objectives.

Unlike the default WordPress sign-up, I have also included an option to choose which types of posts you would like to receive emails about:

Udemy announced yesterday that they are simplifying their pricing and promotional strategy. This is mostly a positive change, since their constant discounts are discouraging for the instructors and confusing for students, however they are also implementing a $50 cap on all course list prices.

Apparently 90% of their sales occur at or below this $50 threshold, so they have decided to limit all of their courses to this price. Needless to say, this is quite frustrating for instructors such as myself who cannot afford to price our courses so low. But we seem to only have two options: either allow our courses to be capped at $50 or disable (unpublish) them from the Udemy platform.
