BuddyBoss Online Community and Social Learning Platform Joins Awesome Motive

BuddyBoss Web platform gives you everything you need to successfully build and manage online communities using WordPress. It comes with all the important features you would expect including User Profiles, Activity Feeds, Groups, Forum Discussions, Member Connections, Direct Messages, Events, eLearning (LMS) integrations, eCommerce support, and more.

You can translate your app in multiple languages, add gamification features to boost engagement, introduce micro-learning experiences, add in-app purchases, and more to tap into the $80 billion mobile learning market.

"Online communities have always been a critical part of the web, and I believe their role is going to be more important than ever in the future," said Syed Balkhi, Founder of WPBeginner and CEO of Awesome Motive. "The web is going through a massive transformation, and we are excited to welcome BuddyBoss to the family, so we can help usher in a new era of online communities where independent creators and businesses have full control over their data and content distribution."

Over 25 million websites already use the WPBeginner family of products like OptinMonster, WPForms, MonsterInsights, AIOSEO, MemberPress, and others to build and grow their online presence. Now with BuddyBoss, they can add a private community with premium content and a branded mobile app to help grow their business and revenues even further.
