Ebook Digital Delivery Question

[Rusky]

I've just put together an ebook in my little niche. Now I'm looking for a provider that can deliver and handle the payment process. Any ideas who I can use I'm looking for cheap and reliable.
I got two so far.
Ejunkie - $5 monthly(can go higher) - 50mg storage - I think unlimited uploads.
DigitalGoodsDelivery - 9.95 monthly - 50mg storage - auto delivery - custom emails - unlimited sale uploads.

I like the price on both, but really looking for something that works well. Can anyone comment on the providers above, and/or add something new. Thanks in advance.

Clickbank is good, but remember they are pricey 7% can really add up for each sale.

Also I don't recommend them for Internet Marketing products because a large percentage of Internet Marketers have affiliate accounts and because clickbank is an automatic affiliate program (at least to the products you have in their marketplace) then it's a simple thing to buy your product on your affiliate link.

So you tend to find most of your sales are at a "discount" (the affiliate price) for Internet Marketing products. It's generally expected to give at least 50% to affiliates on clickbank, and 75% is not uncommon, so this becomes a major cost, particulary when the clickbank fees are also taken out.

Of course there are other advantages to selling to affiliates, increasing your gravity in the marketplace which attracts more affiliates.

We have lots of non IM products in clickbank and I think it works great for that.

Also clickbank have just swapped over to weekly payments now which is nice, and also offer direct payment to bank accounts (even to international customers like me in Australia). It's a great feeling to check the bank account and see payments from clickbank in there.

Others will probably disagree with me and there is a lot of products aimed at Internet Marketers on clickbank, so probably best to check it out for yourself.

Clickbank charge $49 per account for you to setup a new product to sell there as well, so keep that in mind (it's free to join if you are just going to be an affiliate).

Why not just use paypal, and something like dlguard to protect your links? (google it).

It's a once off cost I believe.

There's no affiliate link behind it, but you could also try selling it through LuLu... that way, people have the option of buying it as an actual book as well, and you have the option of trying to sell it to real bookstores.

Amazon has a deal like that as well now...

I was thinking about putting the ebook on a CD in order to sell through Amazon.com . To bad DLGuard site is down right now looks interesting.

or maybe even sell the CD via eBay?
But yea, Clickbank is your best bet I'd say.

Just checked the website, it's working for me.

Try Ether.com (recently merged with AT&T). You can create an autoresponder email inside their messaging system with your ebook as an attachment. The person who wants to download your attachment has to pay for access, and they can get to it immediately. The usual reason people use Ether is for the anonymous telephone service, for example paid technical support, or paid phone consulting. It's a toll free number with an extension that goes to you. But I like their digital delivery method too.
