How to Promote Your Udemy Course

Increase your user base (and sales) by learning how to tastefully market your course.

by Alex Mozes

Success is in your hands.

(Note: This course has been published in-progress; please bear with us as we get it all fixed up and fleshed out!)

Not everyone knows how great you and your course are – especially when they don’t know where to find it. That’s where self-promotion and marketing comes in! With the right tools under your belt, you’ll be able to personally market your materials to the right people and, with some perserverence, increase your student-base!

Here are some of the things you'll learn in this course:

  • Building your student base
  • Optimizing your course for discovery
  • How not to annoy your social networks
  • How blogs can help you
  • How real-life networks still matter
  • How to find free multimedia to use in your lectures
  • ...and a whole lot more, of course

So come in, settle down, and prepare to have your mind blown.**

**Ok, probably not blown. But there be learnin' in here.


LECTURES:

CHAPTER 1: Optimizing your Course

CHAPTER 2: Direct Outreach

    You guys sure did miss something — like the disclaimers posted all over the place saying that this is an incomplete work in progress. It follows the intelligent principle of Ready, Fire, AIM! that gave us the space program, computers, software, the Internet and so much more. If all material was withheld until the course was complete, chances are it would NEVER be released. So, guys, my suggestion is to do as you've said and go elsewhere, where you'll pay an arm and a leg for courses that are nowhere near as practical and relevant. The one encouraging thing about your reviews: neither of you complained about the price! :D

    Far Too Many COMING SOON in the article contents

    Some person has wisely outlined this course. The headings could provide a well rounded understanding. BUT many of the key parts are EMPTY. I have been seeking a home base for my dozens of lessons. And how to promote them is key to how profitable they will become. So reading these Coming Soon nearly half of the articles was a huge disappointment. I will be looking elsewhere and I might use this service. I suggest to either complete these articles very soon like within a week or hide them from the public until they are ready. This kind of Coming Soon practice is a poor example for those that will teach here. They will only learn to abuse this practice due to the president set here.

    Nice but need to be completed ASAP

    The course content is really nice, some of the tips that Kristina gave seems trivial but I never thought of it before. The only thing that is quite annoying is perhaps more that 30% of the course material is not finished yet. Hopefully it will be finished soon

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How long do I have access to the course materials?

    You can view and review the lecture materials indefinitely, like an on-demand channel.
  • Can I take my courses with me wherever I go?

    Definitely! If you have an internet connection, courses on Udemy are available on any device at any time. If you don't have an internet connection, some instructors also let their students download course lectures. That's up to the instructor though, so make sure you get on their good side!

Instructors

I am ecstatic to be a part of this awesome Udemy team as Instructor Liaison. I've come to Udemy after 7+ years working in corporate training as an educator, curriculum designer, and director of training.  In that time I taught live classes to thousands of Bay Area professionals, developed and implemented a virtual training solution for remote students (synchronous learning) and helped create an online suite of Microsoft Office self paced videos (asynchronous learning).  And now, to find myself working with the pioneers of Udemy? I'm running out of ways to count my blessings. 
Outside of my career I am a native San Franciscan, born and raised (Go Giants!). I am a hiker, camper, traveler, amateur astronomer, and voracious learner.
