Not Just Another Internet Business Success Journey

Digital download protection

Do you create and sell digital products?

If you create and deliver your own digital products then you probably have a number of “hidden” download pages. Chances are, they may not be as “hidden” as you think. It may be worth your while to implement digital product protection.

Why do I need Digital Product Protection?

Social bookmarking sites have sprung up all over the Internet. They serve a really useful purpose by providing people with a portable storage space for access to their bookmarks anywhere there is an Internet connection.

The trouble arises when, whether by accident or malicious intent, a customer bookmarks the download link to one of the “hidden” folders. It could be that they bookmark everything and have given no thought to the fact that they have now told the world where to find and download your digital product – FOR FREE.

What will Digital Product Protection do for me?

One solution I have found is to offer unique download links to each customer that expire after the product is downloaded. That way, social bookmarking sites can be your friend and not the source of product leakage out the back door. You see, once the download link expires, you can have it re-direct it back to your sales page. Anyone following the link is presented with your sales landing page instead of a free copy of your product.

SmartDD is a digital product protection package that offers all of this plus more. It was created by Frank Haywood. There is full integration with PayPal and even eBay, if you need it. It works like this:

• Your sales page makes the sale
• PayPal collects the money and sends a confirmation message to SmartDD
• SmartDD sends a unique product download URL to the customer
• The customer downloads your product
• The URL expires
• Anyone who shares their unique download URL will be doing you a favor as you can re-direct expired download links back to your sales page.

All while you sleep, or whatever it is you are doing.And guess what!

Where can I get Digital Product Protection?

There is a free version of SmartDD that can be used forever if you only want to protect up to three (3) digital products. That’s right! FREE. All you need to do is sign up and you can download the free version of the product and use it forever.

If you need digital product protection for more than three products, then the current price for the commercial version of SmartDD is $67. (Current as of the date of this post).

Digital product protection cannot get any easier than that.

I have downloaded and installed it ready for my first product launch. Visit the SmartDD site now. Every “stolen” download is costing you money. Try it out for a few months using just the free version of SmartDD.  For some other neat online business tools, check out Frank Haywood’s blog.
