Hello guys, I'm back with another journey, this time to launch an e-learning and online education business in a field that I have knowledge and expertise in.
I will not say what this field/niche is, but all I can say that it has a certifying examination. I took and passed the exam several years ago, and I even finished #1 in this exam. I will leverage this fact to establish credibility as an expert instructor.
Thousands of examinees take this exam every year and passing it is very hard. The vast majority fail it, so most examinees normally spend several weeks and months preparing for the test. Some even spend big bucks to buy expensive books or enroll in tutorial schools.
My goal is to create and launch an online course to help examinees pass the exam. Once my course is successful, I will then publish my own book as a supplement or alternative to my online course. I will also start a YouTube channel.
I plan to attract customers through Google searches, paid ads, Facebook groups/pages and YouTube.
My Current Status
At the moment, I already have a domain name, hosting, WordPress website and the necessary plugins such as LearnDash courtesy of Deleted member 752298.
My focus now is to create and complete the course. I will spend 3 hours every morning to create this course. The rest of my working day will be spent on my tech blog which was hit by Google updates but I haven't given up on it yet.
Wish me luck and let's get this journey started!

- Domain name = Registered the domain through Namecheap.
- Hosting = I'm using Cloudways but I will migrate to a standalone Vultr VPS once I've completed the course.
- Theme = I installed a free WordPress theme but will likely purchase the pro version soon.
- Plugins = I've decided to use LearnDash as the main plugin, as well as WooCommerce.
- Payment solution = I've signed up with a payment solution but for some reason, their plugin is not working with WooCommerce. I will investigate the issue and request assistance from the developer.
