Market Opportunity
Online learning is $200B+. Learners need help choosing: which platform (Coursera vs Udemy vs edX), which course for a specific skill, which certification is worth it. Affiliate commissions on course sales range from 10–40%.
The Idea
Build an online learning review and comparison site. Categories: coding bootcamps, data science courses, design courses, business certifications, language learning apps. Create: platform comparisons, 'best course for [career goal]' guides, certification ROI analyses.
Key to Success
- Course quality varies WILDLY — honest negative reviews ('this course is outdated') build more trust than all-positive
- Certification ROI analysis — 'is the Google Data Analytics Certificate worth it?' — targets high-intent career changers
- Include FREE resources alongside paid — readers appreciate honesty and return for future recommendations
