Beginning July, the price for accessing the tutorials and support for users (that sign up after June) is going up as follows.
Note: This is only for new users (members joining after June). Current subscribers (those who have already signed up or are going to sign up before June ends) will continue their membership at the price they signed up at.
Tutorials Access: $47 per month or $517 per year
Support: $77 per month or $847 per year (Tutorials Access is prerequisite for this)
WOW. I truly value your talents and your knowledge. However, I thought your membership prices were a bit out of my reach before. With these increases, I wonder if you will see a decrease in new members. Hopefully for you, you have enough people who are wealthy who can subscribe. Good luck to you. I am a big fan and hope you will continue to share valuable free content related to Genesis/Dynamik.
Well, since existing members will maintain the $10/mo as long as they remain active, I don’t think it’s a problem. I know LOTS of quality membership sites that are $97/mo and higher.
I wish I could make a living with web developing, but for now I am a guy who has a “day job” and puts a few hours in most days doing a little bit of web developing – and a decent amount of managing/updating content on either sites that I built, or ones that I inherited webmaster duties on.
My point wasn’t that Sridhar’s price increase was bad. He deserves everything he gets. He is immensely talented.
I just wish he had another entry level pricing structure for us little guys.
Good luck all!
WOW indeed. Your tutorials are wonderful and I miss when I could access them for free as I used them all the time, but $47 is literally as much as my internet service costs a month. I guess to really successful freelancers, spending $600 a year for tutorials is a drop in the bucket, but its those of us who aren’t super successful and skilled who could benefit the most from them. Ah well…good for you I guess.
I may not have articulated well in my blog post. The cost of the membership for accessing tutorials remains at $10 per month (for as long as they want) for those that have already signed up and those who are going to sign up before the end of this month.
WOW! It’s about time you put your prices up, Sridhar. Good for you.
I pay $90 a month for my internet access. I pay $55 a month for my ‘cable’ TV. I can’t believe that you are still charging less per month than I pay for TV. What excellent value, since your tutorials help me make a higher income, and more than pay for themselves (unlike my TV-viewing…). Keep up the awesome work.
Or buy in the next 10 days and lock into the old price forever? Sounds like a no-brainer to me. I’ve just bought it.
So those who previously signed up will be charged the same amount they have always been charged? Just double checking since I’m reading this before my daily dose of caffeine.
Yes.
Thank you!
Hey,
I’ve read your tutorials before, they are pretty good, yes. But still, you only write them once, and they are there forever. A reader might read it 2-3 times, and copy the snippet and that’s it. 10$ was still a bit much in my opinion, and now with 47$ … are you serious?
And plus, that for the support package, the tutorial package is required.. that’s more then 100+ $ a month…
Actually, if you needed to consult with a developer, you’d probably pay in the $150-200 range to start with. Sridhar is offering it for $77, which is pretty cheap since there is no time limit. You don’t have to pay it every month, just sign up for it when you need it.

This is a fantastic deal at $10/month! Get it while you still can.
If you have followed Sridhar for any length of time, you know he puts out quality tutorials that can be instantly implemented. And he’s always on the different social channels helping out and giving legitimate feedback.
Thank you, Sridhar!
Hi Sridhar,
So for those who have payed annual, the current annual subscription price will also remain the same, correct?
Great value and so appreciate knowing I have you and the possible support if needed.
Thank you.
Yael
Yes.
For those who are already subscribed to Tutorial Access but not for Support, should they subscribe to Support after the end of June, do they still have the old pricing or the new one?
The new pricing.
Well I am, of course, glad that I signed up before this month, but even at $47 this membership is worth every penny (cent?), not only for what we learn but for the ideas Sridhar gives us too, just by reading through the latest posts.
Thank you, Sridhar
Hi Sridhar, I find the constant recommendations for your tutorials, do you have any trial period for your tutorials, I would like to be subscriber. but as a begginer with Genesis framework 47$ is a bit expensive for me, at least for now.
Hi,
I do not offer a trial period at the moment. The list of all tutorials can be seen at https://sridharkatakam.com/archive/
After subscribing if you try to follow a tutorial and it does not work as ‘advertised’ in the child theme that the tutorial has been written for (Genesis Sample, unless otherwise mentioned), please leave a comment in the tutorial and I will help. If I am unable to, you can get a refund.
Subscribed members are free to cancel their membership at any time.
