How Can I Start Selling My Product Online Easily Using WordPress?
You have a product you’re ready to sell, like a report or program - how to sell it?
An easy way to do so is grab a PayPal account, grab a website, get a WordPress blog on it (and yes I do believe a WordPress blog is easiest), and add a product you can offer online (so no shipping costs).
Just add a sales link to a post and off you go. WordPress helps by managing pages, and helping to promote your product as you write about it (and you SHOULD write about it!)
But how to provide SAFE digital downloads of your report to people, and prevent leaks?
One option is password protect a directory, and email buyers the password. But for paid items, that’s not good - if a buyer shares the password, others can download your product.
Another option is a download manager. For smaller sellers, a service like Payloadz.com can help to process your payments and provide the download, while protecting your product from being shared.
Is it the only solution? No. You can add programs to your site to let you manage your own sales downloads. The benefit is that once it’s set up, you pay no one else again. And if you change payment providers these products will continue to work for you. Of course, you also have to set it up and manage it yourself, which may not suit you at first.
Ultimately, a digital download program is more flexible, and lets you manage your products easily. One popular one I own is DLGuard (as you sell more, owning your own script gives you a more professional image - so be sure and check it out.)
Eventually, you will want to move to these more powerful systems - but to initially get out there and start selling a product, a combination like PayPal and Payloadz makes it simple and quick, and saves you time and effort.
Because when you are starting out you shouldn’t have to do EVERYTHING yourself!
