One of the ongoing challenges
with selling ebooks online is security. Authors are usually very concerned about
piracy and offering free trials. While it is true you can use Adobe Acrobat to
password protect a PDF file, once someone has the password, they have access to
the entire file. It's then easy to pass the ebook file around with the password
to friends and family, or worse yet, resell it without permission.
Now there are several forms of
digital rights management one can either purchase and implement or use an ebook
publisher who can provide this extra added level of security for a fee. Usually,
either path is extremely cost prohibitive to the author. and adds a layer of
complexity to opening and reading the ebook to the customer. Luckily, PDF
Profit Lock is available.

Profit Lock is an extremely easy to use utility which enables you to
take any Adobe PDF file and add a level of security to it with the click of a
button. You browse for your PDF file and then add a password and an expiration
date. This enables you to create free trials of your ebooks. It gives people an
opportunity to download and read your ebooks for a few days and then the
password expires. At that point, when they try to open it, they are
automatically brought to an URL of your choosing to actually buy the full ebook.
What a great way to get people hooked on your book. And stats show that a good
percentage of people who download or sign-up for free trials do convert to
actual buyers.
