If you sell ebooks or software or any
other digital product, you will almost
certainly know about the problem of product
theft. Lots of people will try to gain
access to your product download (or thank
you) pages without paying, in order to
steal your ebooks or software.
People usually do this by trying to guess
the name of your download page. You probably
already reduce this risk by giving your
download page a name that is hard to guess.
However tests based on analysis of server
logs have shown that some people will
spend up to an hour trying to guess their
way into a download page. Some now even
use special hacking software, left to
run overnight automatically trying millions
of permutations to guess the name of your
download page.
The fact is that simply giving your download
page an unusual name is no longer an effective
way of stopping those determined to steal
your products. Download Page Protector
quickly and easily protects you from this
problem, by automatically adding a special
script into your download page.
The special script requires a
security code to be included in the link
for the download page.
If the code is not included in the link
address, the script will automatically
redirect the visitor to your home page
preventing downloading of your products.
This makes it much harder for someone
to guess their way into your download
page.
Automatic Search Engine Protection:
A second threat to
your products arises if your download page
gets listed on a search engine. There
are many ways that this can happen, including
dishonest customers posting the link to
a forum. Of course, if the link to your
download page gets onto a search engine,
its easily available to everyone. Your
product is free to anyone who searches for
it!
Download Page Protector provides very simple
protection from this problem by automatically
inserting a special "robots meta-tag"
in your download page.
Most of the leading search engines will
not list pages containing this special tag,
preventing this search engine problem from
ever occurring. Unfortunately there are
still a lot of search engines which ignore
this special tag.
Download Page Protector therefore offers
a secondary search engine protection
mechanism.
Anyone coming to your download page directly
from a search engine link will be automatically
redirected to your home page, preventing
them downloading your products.
Although it is preferable to avoid your
pages getting onto search engines, this
secondary mechanism offers valuable protection
if it does happen. A
Highly Versatile Protection System
Download Page Protector has been fully tested
on the two primary payment services for
ebook and software sales, Clickbank and
Paypal.
However unlike most other solutions, Download
Page Protector is not restricted to these
services and should work with any payment
service. Your
Quick And Easy Solution
To show you
just how easy Download Page Protector is
to use, full instructions are included below.
Please look at the screenshot above and
follow these simple steps:
1. Click the Select File button and
select the download page HTML file.
2. Enable the Prevent access from search
engines checkbox to install the secondary
search engine security mechanism. (Normally
you would enable this).
3. Enter your web site name (such as www.mysite.com).
You only need to enter this once as it is
automatically stored for use next time you
use the software. If someone tries to access
your download page without the correct security
code, their browser will be automatically
redirected to this address.
4. Enter a security code - any number will
do - preferably between 6 and 15 digits
long.
5. Click the Update button.
That's all there is to it!
Your download page file will be automatically
updated and saved in the same folder and
with the same name as the original HTML
file, but with extension ".php".
You should upload this new php page to your
website in the same way as you would upload
any other web page, using your web site
console or FTP program.
When you set up the link for the download
page (through your payment service), you
must change the extension to ".php"
and add to the end of the link: "?sc="
followed by your chosen security code.
For example if your security code is 12345678
and your link was:http://www.mysite.com/thanks.html
The new link will be:http://www.mysite.com/thanks.php?sc=12345678
Anyone attempting to gain access to "thanks.php"
without including the security code in the
link will be automatically redirected to
your home page, preventing them from
downloading your products 24x7. |
