Tips for selling history
- Make the period and region specific in the title, such as Ancient Rome or US history since the Civil War.
- Build each lesson around a question, like why the Roman Republic fell, rather than a list of events.
- Include primary sources with guiding questions and share your own analysis afterward.
- Add a timeline or map download for each module to help learners place events.
- For student audiences, include essay or document-based practice with example responses.
- Choose a vivid, story-driven lesson as your free preview to show how you bring the past to life.
Start an online history academy
Create a history or humanities marketplace with your own brand, domain and categories, where historians and teachers each sell their own courses and connect their own payments. Organize by era, region or theme. The AI builder sets up structure, branding and instructor requirements, such as source citation standards, so you can focus on curation.

Questions about selling history
Can I use primary sources and images in my course?
Many historical documents and images are in the public domain, but not all. Check the rights for each source and credit them; when in doubt, use materials you are sure you can share.
Should I aim my course at students or adult enthusiasts?
Pick one primary audience. Student courses benefit from assignments and essay practice, while adult enthusiast courses can lean into storytelling and depth on one period.
Can I sell a multi-part survey?
Yes. Many instructors split a long survey into several courses by era so learners can start anywhere, alongside a complete edition.
How do sales payments work?
Learners pay you directly through your own Stripe or PayPal account. MultiVendor charges a subscription for the software and never holds sellers' money.
