In a previous post (12 Ways Boomers Can Make Money – Part 4 – Selling on eBay) I announced a post focusing on the different ways digital products such as ebooks, reports, CDs and DVDs are being successfully sold on eBay…here it is:

Any product that can be delivered (downloaded) to a person’s computer is a digital product… if a seller emails a link to the buyer of his ebook so that by clicking on that link the buyer can download the ebook to his computer,that is a digital downloadable product.

According to the policy eBay adopted March 31 2008 digital downloadable products could no longer be sold in eBay auctions,
so that if you really want to sell digital products on eBay
you would have to use eBay classified advertising.

In order to continue selling ebooks, reports, etc. on eBay’s auction
site, they would have to be burned to a CD or DVD so that they are no longer a downloadable product.

Why sell on eBay?

The answer is simple… millions of people all over the world browse the listings on eBay, looking for anything that might relate to their lifestyle or their hobbies. Anyone can set up a website or a blog or have one set up for them but selling depends on the kind of traffic the website gets.

With an eBay store… you not only get traffic, but you get the kind of traffic that is ready to buy… you get millions of people from all over the world looking for products with credit card in hand, ready to buy…the traffic is already there.

Next post will present an overview of possible ways to integrate some benefits of eBay classified advertising and eBay auctions with your existing business.
