Electronic Delivery and Payment Methods

You have digital documents, possibly similar to the suggested PDFs, commonly found in ebooks. You've spent hours, days, or even weeks creating a product and received a considerable amount of reliable feedback. It's well-polished now, and you're ready to start selling it and earning some cash. So, the next step is to make it available. The typical approach is to develop a blog or website. You may also rely on social networks like MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, etc. Personally, I recommend using multiple sources to showcase your product, but you'll need a "home base," as they say, to describe your product. People might want to know about it before getting it. For me, the simplest starting point is to create a website. As your site continues to evolve, you'll need to find ways to deliver the product and accept payments. We'll cover all these aspects in the order of website, payment, and electronic delivery.

Not everyone is a web designer, including me. No worries, as you have enough. You can bring in help to build your website, which might be costly, and you'll discover ongoing maintenance and update costs. You can buy website building programs. There are various costs available, and user environments differ. The route I suggest is dealing with a web host that provides an internet builder and templates to create your website (most hosting companies offer web page templates). I've tried some of them, and they're generally easy to use. Finally, I chose Voda Host because of the reviews I just read and the free web builder they provide (using their hosting service to handle any content generated by their web builder). I almost forgot to mention getting your own domain for the website. Try to come up with a simple but attractive website name. You can also purchase your website name through any hosting service you decide to use.

You can choose from various payment methods, many of which are free or nearly free. Services like PayPal and Google Checkout are popular payment methods. You can opt for a credit card merchant account, but personal accounts may be expensive, and the mentioned services accept almost all major credit cards anyway, so it doesn't make much sense. For instance, you can also choose the service we use for payments (besides PayPal, they also accept all major credit cards). This is because they offer an affiliate program where individuals can list my products on the internet or their blog. I'll pay them for selling my goods and keep a commission of that part, so I actually get compensated for free. It's a great passive income method, especially if someone provides a significant amount of traffic by posting your ads on their own website.

Finally, you'll need to find an electronic delivery method for your ebook. At this point, I got stuck, almost trapped in a towel. I was completely unfamiliar with all this, but due to my existence, I couldn't learn how to implement this in my product. I still didn't have something I considered professional, but eventually, I found a company to set up this feature at a reasonable cost. I chose E-Junkie. Essentially, it works by you simply publishing your digital product on their server and providing them with your payment information. Afterward, you'll be able to use shopping cart software and the code for an immediate payment button to publish on your website. Used for multiple test runs, the results showed the process was very smooth.
