Thanks in advance on all answers
You could use Paypal and it can automatically send buyers to a download link after payment. You could also use Clickbank.com.
Use clickbank, a bit safer than using PayPal directly. If you use PayPal directly, encrypt the buttons.
I'm also selling books on my website. The merchant account I use is PayPal and it's pretty easy to use. Just go to the paypal website and create an account if you don't have one yet. Make sure to upgrade it to a business account if you haven't yet. Next you need to make a paypal processing button, it can be found under the merchant service tab on the front page of paypal. Than look for the buy now button link to create your buy button. IMPORTANT: Make sure you encrypt your buy button to prevent people from reading your source code if you are selling a downloadable product. If your book is downloadable than don't forget to edit the "add more option", here you can go to the "customize your buyers experience section" and edit the successful and cancel payment URL. The successful payment URL should be your thankyou page or the page where your customer can download the book. If you don't set this section right you are going to get some angry customers. Good Luck,
