Earn more passive income through Turning Videos into Courses -

Videos have become a primary method of online education with the right reason. Course creators can use videos because they enable you to talk directly to your learners with a less formal approach. Video lessons for learners provide both a visual and auditorial style of learning that could increase their engagement.

It is likely that you are already making use of videos to attract learners on your own YouTube or Vimeo channel. Therefore, why not reuse your videos in an online course that will increase the amount of passive income you earn?

If, for instance, you're already using Vimeo to host your video content, then you're able to profit from an additional chance to monetize your videos in the form of an online learning course.

Additionally, create an online course for free using your existing videos uploaded to Vimeo and make use of the videos to market your course. Creating a free course from the content you already have helps build credibility and makes it easier to market your future courses or products to the people who view your content.

Before we show you how you can make use of Vimeo to create courses, let's look at how Vimeo differs from YouTube.

Vimeo or YouTube?

YouTube offers a wide range of benefits. It's free to get started, and it's already the second (or third) most popular search engine available on the Internet. YouTube is an excellent way to get videos out in a short time, using a straightforward uploading procedure.

While YouTube exposes your videos to an enormous audience, this might not be ideal for you if you're trying to safeguard the content of your courses. If you're offering paid content and you want to restrict access only to your students to access the videos. If the videos are free and available on YouTube, then anyone who is able to access the video can do so and also share it with others.

Vimeo has advanced privacy options so you can lock down your videos to ensure that only students are granted access to your videos. Vimeo offers videos with no advertising in mid- or post-rolls. Also, unlike YouTube, Vimeo has 24/7 assistance for you to troubleshoot or assist in navigating their platform.

Vimeo does have a free alternative, but for creators, you're not going to be able get out of the free tier. There are limitations on the uploading and storage options and you'll lose out on many of the features that are available on their paid tiers. There's a popular $35/month option which unlocks powerful tools for creating and other features, including personalized branding on video.

In this regard, let's demonstrate how you can take an Vimeo display and transform it into a class.
