    Do you know how to use a FTP such as filezilla?

    If not you could go to somewhere like YouTube and search how to upload page with FileZilla

    once you know how to upload a page then simply upload your product as a PDF to your website and wala you have a download page.

    Your download page will read like this:

    www.YourWebsite.com/YourProductName.PDF

    Hi, are you running your website with Wordpress installed on it??

    If you are then it's pretty easy to make simple download pages. To upload the content that you want visitors to download you just have to click the "Insert Image/Media" icon when your making a post and this will allow you to embed download items like pdf files etc.

    Like Oliver mentioned have a look on Youtube - it's a lot easier to learn something new when you can actually "see" someone else do it.

    It depends on if you are using a Wordpress platform or an HTML editor.

    With an HTML editor - you need to use an FTP Client (FileZilla) to upload your download page to your hosting company.

    If you need to learn how to use FTP - you can click on the sig below

    If you are using Wordpress - in your dashboard - just click on the "Pages" icon on the left hand side and click on "Add New". You then begin creating your page. Once your page is created - you "publish" it right there in Wordpress.

    Let's take this a step further...instead of just letting anyone out there download stuff, why don't you consider a trade? Use something like aWeber or eJunkie and require at least an email address in exchange for what you're giving away. You can also use free services like Drop Box or Box.com and create free, public or semi-public download links that won't affect your hosting package.

    There are tons of free resources out there. Some you have to modify.
    To me, your statement is to generic. I think you need to give more information.
    Plus, you want to get their email addresses to build a list.

    In America anyone can go straight to the top. And here's what's exciting- It is the bottom that is crowded, not the top.
