I am building a website and trying to make it a payed membership site where you have to pay to join but can't figure out how to do it. I would like to sell ebooks and also set something up where members get access to my articles that they can use on their blogs and what not.

Can anyone help????typing

I've never done a pay to view website, but I know webs.com sets them up. you can set up an online store, and you can block pages with a password that you then sell you people who have purchased memberships.   

If you're wanting to sell books online like PDF e-books and such you might look into lulu.com you can sell in POD or e-book and they link with amazon and other big sites to help promo you're books.  They're considered a "vanity publisher" and not the most respected, but some people have a lot of success with it.  There's other e-book self pubs out there you can check out as well, but I don't know all the names, I hope some others here who self-pub do, but I would reccomend that route as opposed to a membership website.  JMO

Good luck!

Thanks for the advice I will look into that, but I would still like to do a membership site for articles people can use on their blogs. I'll keep trying to figure it out lol.
