Start Your Online Business Step 5: Upload Your Product To Your Web Hosting
This is the reason you need web hosting and a domain name. You need the hosting to upload the mini site and sales letter that comes with the resell rights you just bought, and the domain name will be the web address to your new website.
Once you get your hands on resell rights to a product you want to sell, the next step is to edit the sales letter with your payment processor details, and upload the sales letter and product to your web host.
Here’s how to upload your product on your web host, so that your customers can download it, after they pay:
• Sign in to your web hosting account’s control panel. In most cases it is at: http://www.yourdomain.com/cpanel
• Click on “File Manager”
• Click on the folder to the left of “public_html”
• Click on “Upload Files”
• Browse to the file you want to upload (the ebook you will be selling)
• Click on “Upload files”
• Now your file is on your website at http://www.yourdomain.com/filename
• Optional step: If you want to place your files in a folder rather than at the root of your website (public_html) then you would create another folder and click to the left of that folder and upload the files in there. Your download link will then be:
http://www.yourdomain.com/foldername/filename
That is the link you will be sending your customer.
Tip: Choose a difficult to predict name for your file name and keep track of them in an excel spreadsheet or wherever you feel comfortable doing so.
As soon as you make a sale, send your customer a thank you e-mail with the link to download his/her product (file in this case).
You are done 
Start raking in profits!
