Selling E-Products The Easy Way

Posted by Paul B | October 2, 2007 .

It’s a big step to go from giving things away for free to selling an e-product. It doesn’t matter if it’s an e-book, software package, MP3 or anything in between, the moment you start wanting payment your life becomes just that little bit more complicated. When it comes to getting paid there are various providers who can help, PayPal and Google Checkout being two of the biggest. However this is not even half the battle.

The main problem with selling an e-product is securing your product against people like Big Cock Marketing who will happily use Google to search for products. It’s ok uploading to your website but as soon as Google trawls a link to your product then people can get it for free. When I first made this step I spent a good couple of weeks making my own custom product delivery platform. Once it was secure I then had to spend another week integrating it with my payment platform at the time which happened to be Paypal.

As I’ve mentioned previously I was an exclusive member of the Rich Jerks club, in my opinion it was a complete waste of money but 1 good think did come from it. Buried deep in the forum was mention of a service called e-junkie. It was how some of the members were delivering e-books so I checked it out. It gets my highly recommended seal of approval, for only $5 a month you can sell up to 10 different products with no additional fees. They will host your files for download, manage the whole transaction (including integration with Paypal, Google, TrialPay and many others), limited downloads and even deliver product license keys if needs be. I’ve now gone away from my custom solution and use e-junkie for all my product delivery.

If you’ve ever thought about selling e-products but have been put off by the logistics of actually getting your product to your customers then e-junkie is the perfect solution.
