How to build a member-only website for your organization

Public pages for prospective members. Private pages for current members. Document library, community forums, event calendar, and member directory, all behind one login. Custom domain. Your brand, your content, one platform.

01 · The playbook

How to do it, step by step.

  1. 01

    Pick a template

    Covey ships with considered templates. Pick one that fits your organization's voice.

  2. 02

    Configure public vs. member-only pages

    Mark pages public, member-only, or level-specific (only visible to patrons, only visible to board members, etc.).

  3. 03

    Upload your member documents

    Bylaws, minutes, annual reports, meeting agendas, resource guides. Organized by folder, version-controlled.

  4. 04

    Point your domain

    One DNS change. SSL automatic. No separate hosting bill.

  5. 05

    Invite members to log in

    Members receive a welcome email with their login. They self-serve from there.

02 · What it gets you

The payoff.

  • One platform replaces a public website, a members-only portal, and a document share
  • Public pages rank on Google; private pages stay private and work on mobile
  • Board members get their own document library without a Dropbox shared folder
  • New members onboard themselves via the public site and the welcome sequence
