My website has a variety of different blogs that anyone can currently access. We’d like to make an exclusive blog for high quality content that requires a paid subscription. This would be particularly good for Black Friday marketing because we want to offer 1-2 months of free access to this exclusive blog as an additional incentive for buyers of our product. Is there an easy way to do this or an app that could help streamline this?
Well, well, well…look who it is! @epoll24 , it’s Ryan from the one and only BIZNAZZ101!
Kudos to you for successfully starting your store!
This is possible yes! Not only for blogs but any content on your website such as products, collections, pages, etc. You will need code or an app to apply “access controls” to do this.
The customers account will be compared to the criteria you set in order to gain access. If they meet the requirements they will be granted access, if not they would be prompted to login, purchase the necessary product, or take another desired action in order to view the content. There are a few apps that can do this the most popular being locksmith, or it can be done via code.
Example: https://canvenia.com/membership/
We set this store up so that only actively paying “members” or “resellers” can access specific design templates, while normal customers cannot as described above.
I hope this will be helpful to you.
Good luck!

Thanks this is very helpful. Do you know of any free apps that work similarly to Locksmith?
