    Hi;

    Congrats.

    Welcome to our community and accecpt my warmest congratulations!

    I looked at your profile but could not see any course.

    Did you publish it?

    If yes it takes about 24 - 48 hours to adding your course in New tab of Udemy Sub category.

    But You can find it currently in search reults by exact name.

    Try:

    - Give free coupons to your trusted network.

    - Use Linkedin - Youtube and ...

    - Check the Udemy marketing systems (Takes about 1 week to see the result)

    - Pray and wait!

    ,

    Usually you get a lot of students for your first course by giving it away free and then promote your second course using Udemy promotional announcements sent to the new students of your first course. So, you need a second course.

    As far as getting enrollments, produce a free coupon and post it on the site BestBlackHatForum in the "Udemy Free for a Limited Time" section (you'll need to create a BBHF account) to give away thousands of free coupons in a few days.

    I think that answers both questions:

    1) To get enrollments, offer a free coupon on BBHF.

    2) To promote your course produce a second course and use Udemy promotional announcements to cross promote your two courses.

    There are also a ton of things you can do to make your course more appealing:

    1) Include keywords in title and subtitle to appear in search results.

    2) Copywrite your course description and produce a great promotional video.

    ...

    Most of all, have fun!

  • Hi @

    I really appreciate your support. I have already distributed some free coupons of my course and had successful enrollments.

    I request you to suggest me a range of number of free coupons which I shall create and distribute.

    Also, please share me the link to BestBlackHatForum so that I can post my coupon there too!!

    Regards

    ,

    I don't think we're supposed to share links on here (not sure -- I'll have to look it up). But it's easy enough to Google (or simply add a .com ;-).

    I usually advertise about 1,000 coupons at a time. Maybe you'll want to start with 100. The thing is that when someone (including you) responds to a BBHF thread that thread gets bumped to the top of the discussion list. So, you offer 100 coupons. BBHF runs out in a day or two and starts bumping your thread with requests for most coupons. So, you bump your thread by adding 100 more...

    You get the idea ;-).

    Those who enrol for FREE do give bad ratings...that's what I get to hear?

    Would you still advice?

    Thanks

  • Congratulations on your new course @RahulSinghrks
    Marketing is where the real course hard work starts. Brian has given you some ideas but there are really very few short cuts to success unless you have your own marketing list. Udemy do have some great tips. You can find them here https://teach.udemy.com/marketing/

  • Exactly @Muyiwa
    but in order to promote a new course, we have to give out a few free coupons.

  • Thanks @DeniseFletcher
    , I 'll check them out for sure...
