Do I need coding experience to create no-code content?

No — that's the whole point. Some of the best no-code educators are non-technical founders and business people. Your perspective as someone who learned these tools without a coding background is actually more relatable to the target audience.

Are no-code tools just a fad?

No. Enterprise adoption is accelerating, with 70% of new applications using no-code/low-code by 2026 according to Gartner. AI-powered builders are making the tools even more capable. This is a permanent shift in how software gets built.

What CPM does no-code content earn?

US no-code content earns $15-$35 CPM. But recurring affiliate commissions (20-30% of monthly subscriptions) and template sales often exceed ad revenue. A channel with 25K subscribers actively promoting tools can earn $3,000-$8,000/month.

Should I cover every no-code tool or specialize?

Specialize in 2-3 tools initially. Deep expertise in Webflow or Bubble is more valuable than surface-level coverage of 20 tools. You can expand to new tools over time, especially when hot new platforms launch and you can be among the first to cover them.

Step-by-Step Guide

Choose your no-code tool focus

Pick 2-3 tools to cover deeply: one website builder (Webflow, Framer), one app builder (Bubble, FlutterFlow), and one automation tool (Zapier, Make). Depth beats breadth.

Build real projects with no-code tools

Create actual functioning products — a simple SaaS, a marketplace, a portfolio site. These builds become your best tutorials and portfolio.

Create step-by-step tutorial content

Document the complete building process from blank canvas to finished product. Viewers want to follow along and build the same thing you're showing.

Build and sell templates

Create templates for your chosen platforms and sell them on tool-specific marketplaces. This generates passive revenue and establishes your expertise.

Join tool partner programs

Apply to affiliate and partner programs for every tool you cover. Recurring commissions from SaaS tools create predictable monthly revenue that grows with your audience.
