Thanks @RandyMinder

This is really upsetting. So it is actually better to use the coupon system. But I do not really understand how this system works. Or is there another way to get a greater % paid out to the instructor?

ChrisRose · ‎05-14-2023

David, I absolutely love this - simple and soothing. Thank you for the accompanying screenshot - it really does say it all, IMHO. Question for you: would you be willing to share which frame you got to accomplish that look? (I know that you posted this many years ago, but am hoping you still remember or know or have it, lol.) Thank you!

Muchas Gracias @Bella tu profesionalismo inspira a los demás. Te deseo mucho exito en tus nuevas aventuras. Nuevamente Gracias te vamos a extrañar.

That wouldn't be allowed on Udemy, Even if your courses passes the review, it would be a waste of efforts and resources, since your courses wouldn't resonate with your students. One key element of success on Udemy is building Trust with your students.

Udemy Business makes up over half of my revenue. Without it, I'd make less than half what I do now. The only case where you might want to opt out is if you teach a topic that isn't business or professional in nature, in which case the exclusivity terms may not be worth it.

Well the best way to do is compress the video file and upload by parting it into small pieces. That will also create lot of clearance among your students

Tips for Udemy Videos. Creating a high-quality video for a Udemy course requires some planning and preparation. Here are some tips to help you make a great video: Use a good camera: A high-quality camera is essential for creating a professional-looking video. You can use a DSLR camera or a good-quality smartphone camera to record your videos. Use good lighting: Lighting is one of the most important factors in creating a high-quality video. Make sure your filming location is well-lit, and use natural light if possible. If you need additional lighting, invest in some good quality lights. Use a good microphone: Sound quality is just as important as video quality. Invest in a good-quality microphone to ensure that your audio is clear and easy to understand. Plan your content: Before you start filming, plan out the content of your video. Create a script or an outline, and make sure you have all the necessary information you want to cover. Keep it simple: Don't try to include too much information in your video. Keep your content focused and easy to understand. Engage your audience: Make your video engaging by using visuals, animations, and other multimedia elements. This will help keep your viewers interested and attentive. Edit your video: Once you have finished filming, edit your video to make sure it is polished and professional-looking. Use a good video editing software to add titles, captions, and other effects. By following these tips, you can create a high-quality video for your Udemy course that will engage and inform your students.

Yeah i understand students are being offered different promotional prices on courses, but hw about when i promote my course outside Udemy to my followers and student buys using coupon? Can I be setting different prices before promoting it? That's what I want to know.

Thanks Lawrence - I missed your name out of my reply!

Hi @LawrenceMMiller, thank you for bringing this to our attention. I completely agree that certain cases are out of the community's scope. I would like to inform you that our Trust and Safety team already takes measures to ban users from the community when they are banned from the platform. However, in some situations, instructors might have different email addresses in the community, and in these cases, it is possible for them to post messages even after being banned from Udemy. As for your second suggestion, we agree that communication is key to avoiding these issues. Our Trust and Safety team works diligently to ensure that our policies and guidelines are followed, and we will continue to make improvements to our messaging to ensure that banned instructors receive clear information about Udemy's policies. We always encourage banned instructors to contact policy@udemy.com if they have any concerns or need further clarification about their ban. Our policy team is more than happy to assist them and provide any additional information they might need. Thank you for your feedback and suggestions. As always, we appreciate your support in making our community a safe and positive environment.

No, but you can send out an educational announcement to let them know what changed and how it might affect their learning.

Ahmed_Jendoubi · ‎04-07-2023

Hi Ola @OlaFranklin100 First allow me to welcome you to the instructors community and provide an answer to the three questions you asked. 1. The kind of course you can create is a course that you have a great deal of expertise in and a great passion to teach it even to one student. 2. Try to find how much interest is there for your course topic by learners as suggested on Udemy section on course analytics. https://www.udemy.com/instructor/marketplace-insights/ 3. Learns will watch your course if they discover a genuine expertise, a passion and possible answers to their nagging questions on that particular subject. If this happens, your continous efforts will be to keep engaging your learners, keep motivating them, keep yourself, in every lecture, a little a new in your teaching styles, voice, dress, movement, your lecture is your mini Hollywood movie, and you are the director, the main character and hopefully the hero that will solve the nagging problems of your learners. You wrote "I need a very sincere opinion ...", I did my best here to oblige. Best regards,

MeeBellydance · ‎04-03-2023

Hi MelissaEEEE, I've just submitted my course for review. Waiting for feedbacks from Udemy. Good luck to you!

Sunny dimalu · ‎04-01-2023

hello bro, do you get sales from promotional emails when you launch a new course . and for me february was the worst month and march was decent.

Bella · ‎03-31-2023

Hi @Nuno.936, thank you for reaching out to us regarding this. I'm sorry to hear your account was banned. Here in the community, we do not have access to account-specific information or the ability to unban accounts. We kindly request you to contact our Trust and Safety team at policy@udemy.com with your account details and any relevant information you may have. They will be able to provide you with more information on the reason for your account ban and address any concerns you may have. Thank you for your cooperation!

Hi, I have a YouTube channel about videomaking and GoPro tutorials. So i made a course about the last model of GoPro (in Italian). I'll share the link in all my previous GoPro videos and i'll talk about this course in the next videos. So i'll make also a blog post about this new course and i'll create a good landing page that i would like to sponsor. The BIGGEST problem form me are the discounts. Infact if i share with my community now the course they'll pay 44.99€ (and for me is a low price for the time and the effort that i spent on it) but maybe in 1/2 weeks it will go down to 14.99€ as the other Udemy courses. So, I'm waiting the approval of the course, then i'll wait the discount to 14.99€ (or similar) to launch it on my social/website. At that point i think it's ok that the first people will pay less, than the price will go up again and then down and so on. I think that this is a good opportunity for the standard Udemy users that knows these discounts. But for a normal community outside Udemy i think that it's a bad thing. I expect a lot of complaining 😅 So i was thinking to remove my course from the Udemy deals, but i think that i can do a lot of sales with a discounted price...so...i'll see. P.S. i just saw that there is a 11,99€ discount for 2 days now 😂

DamianMcKinnon · ‎03-23-2023

Bravo. Nodding my head on every point you raised.

g-LogConsul568 · ‎03-23-2023

Hello Guys, I need help! I have a course originally in English but now have uploaded VVT of other foreign languages. However how do I handle the quizzes and assignments originally in English now into the other foreign languages i just uploaded? Anyone's helpful direction please. Regards Charles

Practicalbu693 · ‎03-18-2023

I asked to udemy team via chat by sending a screenshot as shown below. And they said it is fine to do so.

RaquelCoelho · ‎03-16-2023

I quite like my microphone. It's portable and has very clear sound, with pop prevention integrated. I have a Rode NT usb mini

FrankKane · ‎03-13-2023

That's right - make them a co-instructor, but with everything but Q&A permissions disabled. You can even give them a percentage of your revenue as payment that way, if you wish, freeing you from the task of paying them, sending them tax forms, etc. Be sure to set clear expectations up front about their turnaround time, how they will identify unanswered questions, when to escalate to you, how to handle when they need to take time off for a vacation or something, etc.

SaiAcuityIn756 · ‎03-07-2023

I use google translate once I download the English caption file. Create VTT docs and upload, its pretty simple. Takes time when it comes to long duration courses but I try to create captions in languages like Spanish, French, German since for my courses I see lot of interest from these regions. Moreover I create captions only for my highly saleable courses.

AhmedMagdyMohamed · ‎02-17-2023

@MaclayAcademy23 it is a common issue their algorithm is so brilliant. Only one 1-star rating can ruin your entire course's rating even stupid sellers wont do this to themselves. our courses are the source of income to udemy if they wont correct that, on long run all courses will be low rated and no student will buy a low rated course. Enjoy it Udemy!

Ahmad.Elhajjar · ‎02-08-2023

Well explained.

MailessChab740 · ‎01-28-2023

Congratulations to our new CEO. Udemy is where my heart is at.

Thor · ‎01-15-2023

Honestly I would go for your voice and maybe work on your accent, I did that over the years and now I rarely get "I can't understand Thor" reviews, when I started 4 years ago they were semi frequent. AI voices are not allowed and if you pay a voice actor you need to remember they are now your brand, that is what students expect, meaning what if they stop working as voice actors or anything else happens, you now lost your brand.

CoursesSubconsciously · ‎12-19-2022

Sorry to ask again, but what istockphoto.com license do I need to purchase to use my photos in my Udemy course? How much did you pay for one photo? I'm going to need a lot of pictures and I'm wondering if I can even afford them.

CoursesSubconsciously · ‎12-19-2022

What license on istockphoto.com is required for Udemy courses, standard or extended?

RyanJaress · ‎11-03-2022

Hey there everyone! The original post has been edited. The previous statement the Price Tier Matrix was updated was inaccurate. Sorry about that! Sincerely, Ryan
