Hello Everyone
I have an ebook that I intend to sell on my website and the way I want to set it is that people can immediately download it after buying it through paypal but I’ve run into a problem.
I’ve put the ebook in a zip file which people can download but I don’t know where to upload the file to for people to download it from, I’ve asked paypal and my web host but they haven’t been able to help me so can anyone let me know how to do this.
Thanks
Martin

Suggest using a 3rd party service for your product. It's much easier. For example, check out this service:
If you're into programming your own stuff, then you need to use PayPal's IPN feature, else your digital downloads will not be secure as the URL can be shared once known. Here's a link to the IPN desktop guide:
