What courses are you happy to have bought?

Hey! It's Rich here, founder of Failory,

I'm currently working on an article about great courses for entrepreneurs, bootstrappers and indie hackers.

I have taken lots of online courses and thought I wouldn't have any problems creating a huge article with many of them. However, I'm starting to realize only a few of these are really recommendable 🤔

Here comes my question: What are some completely money-worth online courses you've taken?

On my side, I can recommend 3 I've recently taken:

  • No Code MVP by @bramk
  • Micro PE Course by @ryan
  • Blogging for business, by Ahrefs (Free due to COVID19).

    "Sales Safari" from https://shop.stackingthebricks.com/ has been my recent buy and happy with it. It has sped up my "is this needed" phase quite some.

    I've recently picked up Laravel as a framework to create my projects in. I know it's a bit specific but I picked up Laravel API Development & Vue JS SPA from Scratch Udemy course and it's been a really great tool. I constantly keep coming back to the provided code when building my projects.

    Just for you asked about courses, I have come to a realization that in the internet era where all the information is available online for free then why do you need to buy courses. (Just a thought)
    Sure when you buy courses you get all the material in a specified manner but you still need to work up to honour your skills.
    I do have made a website where you can get all the courses and tutorials links related to a specific topic for free.

    1. 2

      Not only in a specified manner, but you don't have to piece around information that's scattered in different places, and also wondering whether the info you get from the different places is legit or not.

      Compared to a course where if the instructor is legit and reputable with experience, you know that he/she is teaching based on experience.

      Also with paid courses, to a degree you can ask the course creators questions and some also include a community to network.

      1. 2

        as a course creator I couldn't agree more. @Rohitlakh you can do my 2-year research and 7+ years of experience yourself, or pay $299 for my course and get a huge kickstart ;)
