  I have books and audio’s on my blog that are free to download but I would like to figure out a way to sell some of them. What is the best way of going about setting up an online “store” connected to my blog/site?

  To my knowledge, wordpress isn’t set up for this sort of thing. If this is true, what are some suggestions of ways to pursue this?

  Thanks!

  WP.com indeed is not set up for this kind of thing. Your best bet is to set up a store in other webspace and link to it. Some artists use Etsy, some authors us Amazon or Lulu.com.

  I just mean you make a link to it in a text widget or something, just a regular link. You can’t build an e-store into WP.com, it just doesn’t work.

  You’re welcome. You might want to look around some sites to see how they’ve done it.
