A long time ago I used to have a huge key ring. It had keys to my apartment, multiple offices at work, some keys for lockers at the gym, and car keys.

The key ring was big enough I would clip it to my belt instead of putting it in my pocket.

These days I get similar advice questions and questions about where to find the perfect products when it comes to membership plugins for WordPress.

Here are my favorite eight membership plugins and how they compare.
