in First-time course creation

Hello everyone,

So, I created all the video lectures (105 of them), edited them (removed noise as best as I could) and also uploaded them. My test video cam back positive for video and audio quality. I uploaded slides and some additional documents such as cheatsheets, source codes (it is a programming course). I created my Udemy profile and linked my Paypal account.

The last step - to create a course promo video, describe the course and publish.

I have my own Facebook page where I have been doing some marketing and have built up a small fan club.

Am I forgetting anything? My first course and hence the nervousness.

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Shiv

    Almost there @shivkiyer
    ! So exciting!

    Check out this post by @CarlosDeLeon
    ; he includes a great checklist about what to look for before you publish.

    That you for that link Jocelyn :) That checklist is very useful. I am previewing the course videos as a student and am checking if the resources I added are also ok. I guess I will be ready to submit tomorrow.

    Thanks again!

    Cheers,

    Actually I realized a mistake I made. I spent tooo much time reviewing things on my computer and then uploading at the last minute. I didn't know about this preview course as a student option. For my next course, I would upload as soon as a section is ready and preview as a student rather than collect the videos until the course is ready.

    Cheers,

    Publish!!! :)

    Remember that you can always fix/adapt/change parts of your course after it's published. It's never set in stone.

    I just created and emailed my verification video. Now I guess will wait for them to get back to me. I suppose only after that will I be able to submit.

    Thanks everyone! Been a student on Udemy for 2 years and bought over a dozen courses. Now time to cross the fence and start creating courses :)

    Cheers,

    Hi Shiv,

    Am a new instructor, could you advise me on the approximate price set upon your experience?

    Regards

    Hi Farid,

    This question should be asked to experts separately. This is my first course, so I am trying out as well.

    Regards,

    Shiv
