    If it is just one ebook you could just sell directly on Amazon and/or on sites like Lulu.com or e-junkie.com. Easy to set up, they take a cut of the sales obviously but it saves you setting up a site and managing payments etc. Otherwise you could set up a blog or simple site using Wordpress.com or Wordpress.org respectively. But definitely look at selling on Amazon and the likes either way.

    What is the ebook about out of interest?

    Thanks very much. I'l look into that. Its a bit controversial and havent it finished yet. I will let ya know once im selling it will give it to reasonable priced: ) or free if you keep good advice like that flowing. How can I protect it from other people selling it just wondering is there a way?
