Kudos on your new project. I'm just going to nitpick two things I noticed from a quick glance:

You post the following disclaimer once you start the free California LLC course - "Disclaimer: The information on this course is for general guidance only and does not constitute legal, financial, or professional advice. Accuracy is not guaranteed. Consult a qualified professional for personalized advice." I would suggest also having that before a customer pays for one of the non-free courses, either on the main page or mentioned on the stripe gateway(if possible).

On the Introduction to LLCs page for the California course you accidentally mention Wyoming instead of California under Other Important Stuff - "LLC Name: Pick a unique name that meets Wyoming's rules. See the LLC Name lesson for tips."

Good luck homie!

Thank you so much for that feedback!! I missed the Wyoming typo on the free California course. Thanks a lot for pointing that out. I fixed the typo. Also thanks for mentioning to add the disclaimer before people buy the course.
Did you find the content valuable?
I'll be real with you - no. Even if I hadn't already been through the process of registering an LLC before, it's an extremely over-saturated market. Heck just looking at the first page on google for "how to register LLC in Texas" I see that each link gives the same information you do but for free. A couple youtube videos with 100k+ views even show up on the first page that explain the same thing.

I can't imagine not performing the most rudimentary search before opting to pay for a $18 course that wasn't even verified/checked by a lawyer for accuracy (one of the links I clicked on went out of the way to indicate their steps had been indeed verified by a lawyer and even gave his name+photo, assuming they weren't lying).

Regardless - Any project that doesn't cost you more than your time to setup has some value, even if it's just your experience in the process. Best of luck.
