    I'm researching a business idea based around, allowing authors to sell ebooks from a website.

    What would be the best way to set that up? i'e tech wise? could it be done with wordpress? or would it need dedicated web programming? or are there templates already out there for such a service?

    Thanks for any help.

    Thanks that looks good, but I'm not sure it allows authors to sell their own books through that site, only for the site admin to sell his/her own books.

    You can have an ecommerce website that can be build with wordpress as you have mentioned. If you know programming then you can build the site else would need to have a dedicated web programming. There are other open source ecommerce platform like volusion, bigcommerce, magento etc you can choose for creating an online book store.
