Uggh, I wish I had seen this before I made the ignorant and foolish mistake of posting my free coupon code to Udemy Free Coupon Code groups on Facebook. It was exciting for my daughter and I to watch people register from all over the world on the map, but you are absolutely right, VERY few have done anything at all in the course! This was my FREE course that I thought might help drive traffic to my main course on a simliar topic. At least I didn't post a FREE coupon code for my pay course, thank God. So I wonder if my FREE course is doomed forever? I'm going to go remove that posting from the facebook groups I posted to, even if it is really too late, damage already done.
Thanks for the information here. It helps, but the marketing side of all this is overwhelming. Not sure I want to take the time to be a youtuber and my social media presense is small with most not being "technical" or into my subject matter like I am, but my first course is still selling a little, simply from Udemy's marketing. I'm happy, not looking to make this a career I guess, but will work at it to improve. - thanks again.
