Web Design Extras - Downloadable Products

If there was ever one distinct financial advantage that the internet offers over normal retail, it is in downloadable products.

Being able to have your products downloadable over the web effectively gives you your own, silent salesperson ... a staff member who costs you nothing in wages, works 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, no vacations, no health plans, no sick leave – in effect, the best staff member you could ever wish for.

And Ozeweb Website Solutions has the ability and know-how to provide you with a totally secure downloadable service on the net.

What can you download?
You might be surprised at which of your products is downloadable. If you're a craft business, do you have – or can you go into – patterns of your products?

One of our clients has a major downloadable section on her craft website ... click here to visit Heart to Heart Crafts and see how this Australian artist has expanded her world-class pattern service to a fully international audience.

Other options that come to mind include e-books, paid for product catalogues, computer software...the list goes on and is only limited by your marketing imagination.

How does it work?
When designing your website, we set up a series of secure password protected sub-directories on your hosting account, into which is placed each of your individual download products.

When you receive a download order from a client, you process their order then email them with a website address and password to access their downloadable product they have purchased.

You give each client a set period in which to download his/her product, then you change the password to that secure directory. This makes sure that an unethical client can't pass out access to your downloadable directory to other people.

Automated downloads
We can also provide you with an automated download service, where we sign you up with a major online merchant account provider, and everything is done with real time credit card transactions, leading to automated download notifications to your clients.

For more information on this option, please email us for details and cost.

To add this option to your website, complete full details of your products in the Comments section of the Ozeweb Order Form.
