If its a website, the aim is typically to keep you signed up in order to use their calculators and meal trackers and plans, so that if you stop visiting the site, you'll be left to your own devices. Even book programs, get you into the first book, but there is always a tie-in with other products, and then the multiple books from the same author sure to follow.

While most are gimmicky at best, some offer you the chance to change things for the better, and allow you to carry on the techniques for the res tof your life.
