How to Create a Free Website to Sell Through PayPal


PayPal Buy Now Button Configuration
1. Log in to your PayPal account and select the 'Merchant Services' tab.
2. Select the 'Buy Now Button' link.
3. Choose 'Buy Now' as the button type from the drop down list.
4. Enter the item name and, optionally, an item ID. Also, enter a price and select a currency type.
5. Make any changes to the button appearance and add shipping and tax as necessary. In addition to the options shown in the first button creation page, PayPal provides two other pages of customization options for advanced users.
6. Create the button. Press the 'Create Button' button at the bottom of the page.
7. Copy the button code. Select the button code generated by PayPal and copy it to the clipboard for use in a later step.
Website Configuration
8. Add a page to your website for the product or service you want to sell through PayPal.
9. Describe your product or service. Add any text or images to your web page describing your product or service. Be sure to include the information a prospective customer would need to know to make a buying decision. Also, if you frequently get similar questions from prospective customers, you'll want to add the questions and answers to your page to eliminate the need for visitors to contact you and wait for an answer.
10. Add PayPal to your web page. Paste the HTML code previously copied to the clipboard from the PayPal site into your web page.
11. Save your web page and upload to your web host if necessary. That's it, you're done. You now have a free website with a page for selling a product or service using PayPal's payment system. To add more products or services, just repeat these steps and use the details of the new product or service to configure a different PayPal Buy Now button and place that button on the corresponding page of your website.
