This guide will help you through the process of uploading your ebooks on to the server of your website.
If you're anything like me, once in a while you need a little help. I did when I got started and I was fortunate to find lots of help from many kind folks selling here on eBay. So now I have a chance to pay back some of that help.
When I was just getting started the thing I really wanted to learn was how to get my ebooks loaded to my server so that they could be downloaded any time of the day or night. This way I could give my customers a "Digital Delivery" link on eBay's page and not have to worry whether they got the ebook or not.
Here are a few pointers, simple steps to get your ebooks uploaded and then sell, sell, sell!
- Create your ebook, or take one you have resell rights to and place it in the folder you have created for ebooks on your hard drive. (A good place for this folder might be on your desktop so that it's easy to find). Right click the ebook file and select "Send To" then select "Compressed (zipped) Folder". This places the book in zipped format so it is a smaller and faster file to upload for you and download for your customer.
- Upload that file using your FTP program to whatever folder/directory you will be keeping your ebooks in. For Example, if your website is MyWebsite.com then the link you give your buyers will look like this: MyWebsite.com/FolderWhereIKeepMyEbooks/Ebook.zip
- If you need help with FTP, you can go to my "About Me" page and sign in to immediately recieve a FREE video tutorial on how to use FTP along with 4 other FREE videos! (If you need an FTP program Smart FTP and Wise FTP are free to download on the web just do a quick search).
- Now test your link to make sure it works and your ready to create your listing and sell your ebook.
If you don't have a website, don't worry. There is another way to get your ebooks delivered day or night. Use an "AutoResponder". You can set up Outlook Express to send your ebooks for free 24/7! Go to my "eBay Store" and grab a copy of "Automatic eBook Delivery..." NOW and you're set!
