How do I make a link on my blog that will download an ebook?
I host the blog myself so I have access to cpanel.

Any short instruction, please?

    create a private folder, upload the ebook to the private folder and create a link to match the ebook location in ur private folder.

    but for more secure ur ebook, to avoid someone else who revealed the download link, you should using a software or membership script, so when someone wants to download the ebook, they need to pay first, in case ur ebook isn't free.

    Assuming this is a free download.......

    Upload the ebook to your site then link to it on your site.

    So for example if you upload it to where your index page lives, the link would be http://www.yourwebsitename.com/ebook.pdf
    Of course you might have a .biz or other domain type.

    If you put it in a private folder the link would be
    http://www.yourwebsitename.com/privatefolder/ebook.pdf
    'Private folder' being whatever you name your folder.

    So make a note of where you upload it to and add its name and file type after the forward slash.
