How To Sell Digital Products On Blogger

Digital Product

Selling digital products online sounds exciting—but if you’re using Blogger, you might be wondering, “Can I really make money from this free platform?” The short answer? Absolutely.

I’ve helped a lot of people figure this out, and I’ll walk you through everything you need to know—from picking the right product to setting up payments and delivering your downloads.

Blogger might not be as flashy as some of the newer platforms, but it’s solid, reliable, and totally free. That means lower costs and more room to grow your side hustle (or full-time gig).

And the best part? You don’t need any fancy tech skills. If you can write a blog post, you can sell digital products. Let’s break it down.

What Counts As a Digital Product?

Before we get into how to sell, let’s make sure we’re on the same page about what you can sell.

A digital product is anything you can sell online and deliver electronically—no shipping needed. Some popular examples:

  • Ebooks and guides (PDFs work great)

  • Templates (for Notion, Canva, resumes, etc.)

  • Online courses

  • Stock photos or graphics

  • Printables (planners, journals, stickers)

  • Audio files (music, sound effects, meditations)

  • Software or plugins

If it can be downloaded or accessed online, you can sell it.

Why Blogger Is Still a Great Platform in 2025

I get it—Blogger isn’t as popular as it was 10 years ago. But it still has some huge perks for anyone just starting out:

  • It’s free. No hosting fees. No premium plans.

  • It’s run by Google, so your blog can rank well in search.

  • It’s simple to use—perfect if you’re not tech-savvy.

  • You can customize it with themes and widgets.

And yes, you can connect it to tools that let people buy and download your digital products right from your blog.

How Do I Sell Digital Products on Blogger?

Here’s the part you’re here for. I’ll keep it simple and walk you through the whole process.

1. Choose a Product That Solves a Real Problem

This is the most important step. Think about:

  • What your audience already asks you for

  • What you’ve created for yourself that others might need

  • What kind of content gets the most views on your blog

For example:

  • If you blog about budgeting, create a printable monthly budget.

  • If you teach photography, sell Lightroom presets or an ebook on camera settings.

Tip: Use free tools like AnswerThePublic or Google Trends to see what people are searching for.

2. Create the Product (Don’t Overthink It)

You don’t need fancy tools. Here’s what I use:

  • Canva – for ebooks, printables, templates

  • Google Docs or Slides – for guides or planners

  • Audacity – for recording audio files

  • Notion – for digital planners or workspaces

Export your product in a downloadable format (PDF, MP3, PNG, ZIP, etc.). Make sure it looks clean and is easy to use.

3. Upload Your Product to a File Hosting Service

Since Blogger doesn’t host files directly, you’ll need to upload your product somewhere else and share the link with buyers after they pay.

Here are a few good options:

  • Gumroad – free and super easy to use

  • Payhip – great for selling ebooks and courses

  • SendOwl – more advanced, but powerful

  • Google Drive – free, but less secure

I recommend Gumroad or Payhip for beginners. They let you set a price, handle payments, and automatically deliver the file after purchase.

4. Add the Product to Your Blogger Blog

Once your product is ready and you have the purchase link, here’s what to do:

Option 1: Add a Buy Button to a Blog Post

  • Write a blog post about your product

  • Insert a “Buy Now” button or link from Gumroad or Payhip

  • Add screenshots, explain what buyers get, and include testimonials (if you have them)

Option 2: Create a Static Sales Page

  • Go to Pages > New Page in Blogger

  • Design a clean landing page just for the product

  • Use clear headlines, bullet points, and call-to-action buttons

Make it easy to say yes.

5. Promote It (Without Being Pushy)

Once your product is live, don’t wait for traffic to magically appear. Here’s how I promote mine:

  • Add a call-to-action at the end of blog posts

  • Share on Pinterest (great for visual products)

  • Use email marketing (Mailchimp or ConvertKit are good free tools)

  • Post on Instagram, Facebook, or Threads

  • Write guest posts for blogs in your niche

Consistency is key. It’s okay if it takes a little time to pick up sales.

FAQs – Quick Answers You Might Be Looking For

Can I use Blogger to sell without a website or shop?

Yes. Blogger is your website. With a good layout and a few product pages, you can absolutely run a small digital shop from it.

How do I get paid?

Platforms like Gumroad or Payhip connect to PayPal or Stripe, and payments go straight to your account.

What if I don’t have a big audience?

Start anyway. Focus on creating useful content and products. Over time, people will find your blog through search or social media.

Is it safe to sell digital products this way?

Yes, but make sure your files are stored securely (e.g., on Gumroad with buyer-only access), and always test the download link yourself before sharing.

Wrap-Up

Selling digital products on Blogger isn’t hard. It just takes a clear plan and the right tools.

You don’t need to spend money on fancy platforms or get caught up in tech stuff. Start with what you know, create something helpful, and build from there.

So, what’s the first digital product you’re thinking about selling?

Let me know—I’d love to help.
