Selling Digital Products Online Is a Growing Trend

Digital products are booming nowadays because of their numerous benefits. They provide high profits, as their production costs are low. Unlike physical items, there’s no limit to the inventory and no delivery costs. Digital buyers get what they need easily and immediately – in just a few clicks. Let’s take eBooks as an example. They are the top-trending digital item, and their industry is projected to reach $13.62 billion revenue in 2022. Other digital products in high demand include audio books, podcasts, videos, music, photography, software, web designs, and many more.

Why Easy Digital Downloads (EDD)?

We’re already offering plenty of ecommerce features, like a free SSL, free CDN, business email, premium support, and more, but we were looking to simplify the online store management experience even further. We only partner with services that complement our own with the highest standard of quality and best in their class, and we’re committed to long-term partnerships with trusted providers we’ve been working with and using throughout the years.

Easy Digital Downloads is the most popular and useful WordPress-based eCommerce platform for selling digital products for WordPress online and is already used by more than 50,000 website owners. It was recently acquired by Awesome Motive, the leading software and media company helping shape the web for billions worldwide. Collectively, their software powers over 20 million websites and includes many of the well-known website tools such as OptinMonster, WPForms, MonsterInsights, All in One SEO, etc., and now also Easy Digital Downloads.

Syed Balkhi, CEO of Easy Digital Downloads, who’s also contributed to our expert round-up How to start your online business on a budget, commented, “EDD’s partnership with SiteGround offers small businesses around the world an easy way to start their eCommerce website and have peace of mind when it comes to on-site payments, security, and performance. Because EDD is open-source, it also helps small business owners retain full control and freedom over their online business vs. getting locked into a proprietary SaaS eCommerce platform”.
