You Missed It!

CopyBlogger Media closed its doors on new sales of Premise December 13, 2013.   If you are looking for a plugin that will allow you to sell subscriptions to premium content, consider using WP-Members with the PayPal subscription extension.  You can find out more here.

CopyBlogger Media is closing its doors on Premise, their premium point-and-click landing page and membership site solution for WordPress.

So why would you want to buy a product that is being discontinued?  Read on my friend and find out!

CopyBlogger will continue to support Premise owners!  They are discontinuing it to instead offer a hosted solution that will allow you another level of service.  But the stand-alone version is going away.

Premise is a pretty awesome product that allows you to create landing pages the funnel conversions on your site, and also provides you the ability offer members only content, payment gateways, subscription products, protected digital downloads, and MORE!

Premise has always been available with a 30 day money back guarantee.   That means you can buy it with absolutely no risk!

The regular price for Premise was $165, but until the doors close on new sales, it is available for only $95.  But you have to hurry.  This offer is only until 5 pm Pacific time on Friday, December 13, 2013.  And then the doors close on new sales of the product for good!

You can read more about the product at the Premise web site.

It really is an amazing product, and I personally own a copy of it and have tested it out myself.  I do not endorse products that I do not personally own and use.

But wait?  Don’t you have your own membership product?  Why would you endorse a competitor?

It would seem odd, wouldn’t it?  But there are a few things about that I can tell you.

First, yes, I am the developer of WP-Members, which was the very first membership restriction plugin for WordPress.  And I will continue to offer that product with support and member exclusive extensions.  It is a great product for those of you that need a low barrier of entry or a framework that is very extensible (with WP-Members, you can even build plugins for the plugin).

Personally, I think the fact that WP-Members is built as an extensible framework is an edge for the product.  Premise, however, is more of a point-and-click product.  It is not very extensible, but it is very feature-rich.  And I have been working on ways to actually use the two together.

Another difference is cost.  WP-Members is free.  There is premium support available, and extensions are available to support customers; and that service is only $47/year.  Premise is a little more costly.  It was $165 for an unlimited lifetime license.  Now they are offering it for $95!  But only until they close their doors on new sales this Friday.

Premise is well documented and well supported, and I know of no reason why that won’t continue in the future as CopyBlogger moves to a new product offering in this area.

And if you are a developer or consultant like me, it may be beneficial to you to own a lot of different products for WordPress. Here is your chance to get a good one with a healthy discount.

Premise: The Complete Digital Sales and Lead Generation Engine for WordPress

Do you work with WordPress? (If not, you know you should, but that’s besides the point.)  If you work with WordPress in any capacity, you should keep WP Engineer in your regular reading, whether that is email subscription or RSS reader.

I am a firm believer that if you are a blogger, especially on a relatively small scale (like a one-man show), you need to be able to fully manage your site.  In WordPress-speak, this means being able to implement simple customizations to fit your needs.

WordPress has a very powerful and customizable framework, much of which goes unnoticed by the general public.  Because WordPress chooses to only provide options and settings where they are absolutely necessary, many non-coding types find themselves using loads of plugins to fit their custom needs.

The debate over “to plugin or not plugin” is an every continuing one.  And at the end of the day, I think there is a time and a place for plugins.  But I see a lot of users implement plugins where a very simple customization would do the job more efficiently.  Why?  Because the site owner doesn’t have the knowledge of implementing simple code snippets to solve small problems.

That’s where WP Engineer comes in.

There are lots of little ways to get under the hood of your WP installation, and WP Engineer can help you with that.  Content categories include:
