All things Shopify and commerce
Hi forum help
I would like to offer my customers free e-book in order to help generate traffic to my site and also offer some educational tools to my customers for free.
for example if you visit my site: www.unigrocer.com
you can see it is on a banner where I displayed my e-book. I am using the "image with text overlay" from the home page content option to upload an image. It also offers a buy now button which I would like to re-write to "Download free e-book".
Can someone tell me how this is could be done?
Best regards
Ashok
Solved! Go to the solution
This is an accepted solution.
Thanks for letting me know! Glad you were able to figure that out.
My recommendation would be to simply create free products for each e-book. You can use our Digital Downloads app to facilitate the download once the customer "checks out" with the free product.
You can add all of these products to a collection, and feature this collection as "Free e-books".
If you'd like to add the collection to your main menu navigation, you can follow these steps here.
Hope this helps!

Hi, @unigrocer
When I go to your store I see the button displayed as "Download free e-book"
Were you able to resolve this on your own or are you trying to add an additional section? Let me know, I'm happy to help!

Hi Elle
Thanks this has been resolved. However I will be writing an eBook every month. So my question is how can I create a page where I can offer everyone to download the eBooks without paying or subscribing.
This is an accepted solution.

Hi Elle
Thanks for recommendation of digital downloads app. and how to do free checkout with customers on e-books.
Could you be able to tell me how I could make my article pages wider?
for instance my blog page width is too short.

You're welcome!
I would recommend making a new post on our design board so you can receive help for this from our community of designers and developers.
If you are using a free Shopify supported theme, you also have the option to utilize some of the design time on your account to have this change made for you by our team.
Hope this helps!

Hi,
You can do this without an app. You can even change the file name to your store name, or what ever you want. Check the video for more info
What other free educational tools do you plan to offer for download?
If you are going to have a long list of resources / files for free download, one way to do it is to use an app like
File Search Bar & Library MP, which lets you display your files in categories and customers can search for the files easily.
