Hi @Jamie De Smit, Thanks for the question. Below are the details that should answer your question: Course Topics: To identify which courses to create, are you using Marketplace Insights? It is one of the best tools to identify which courses are in demand. If you are looking for ideal topics, the best are those that have relatively higher demand and lower supply. The Riches are in the Niches: If your topic/knowledge area is saturated, no problem. You can create topics that are more niche than the others. For example, Yoga is a saturated topic. But you can teach for specific niches such as Yoga for Corporate Executives, Yoga during Pregnancy, etc. This will be a differentiator and will help you establish yourself. Focus on Reviews and Customer Satisfaction: This is a no-brainer but needs to be stated as its essential. Those courses that have excellent reviews thrive on Udemy. So, if you want the Udemy algorithm to give you more students, aim for higher ratings. Plus, use the Q&A Discussion board as a means to interact and solve your student questions. Students love to interact with their instructors and if they find you chatting with them, you are here to get a good word of mouth publicity. Make Your Course Title | Requirements | Description Appealing: I read through some of your course titles. I will be candid and honest, so please bear with me. When I read Anatomy Crash Course | Muscles, Bones, the Heart & the Lungs and the subtitle is Pass any quiz, test or exam! I am trying to figure out (as the audience), why should I buy this course? What problem does it solve? Am I the right person for this course? What do you mean by pass any quiz? What quiz are you referring to? Who is the target audience? These questions are left unanswered. If I were you, I would possibly write the title as Your Incredible Body & Its Anatomy (for Athletes) (I just made up this title to give you the context). Your course titles should talk to the audience. They should convey what problem you are trying to solve? Who is this course for? And why should I take this course? The Requirements are not clear. And Description tells me that I should take this course because learning is for fun. Ahh! That is hurting. I would suggest going through some YouTube videos on how to write effective titles and other details that will appeal to your audience. Sorry, if I was sounding too direct on this, but I just wanted to share my inputs with all honesty. Define Who Your Audience Is Clearly: I am reading Who is this course for? section of the above course. You've written: Secondary School students, Athletes, Personal Trainers, Anyone Interested in learning about their incredible bodies. That's too broad and non-appealing. If I was an athlete, will I take a course that is also the same for secondary school students who are taking some exam? I would look for a course designed just for my interest. The broad categories are a major turndown. I hope these inputs are helpful 🙂
