[SHINOBI NINJA]

We live in a time where you can conduct the entirety of your business entirely from your couch. From start to finish. What's not to love?

For some, online sales provide supplementary income in addition to the main job they do. For others, it's become a full time job. What both cases have in common is, that they both leverage the undeniable benefits of selling digital products

Here are some benefits of selling digital products online:

They're infinitely scalable - you're never limited to how many products can sell. The sky's the limit!
You don't worry about logistics - where to keep stock, how to package your products, and making sure that they get shipped out on time are all problems that physical product sellers have, that digital product sellers don't have to deal with.
Low upfront costs - the barrier to entry is low when selling digital products. It doesn't demand much of an upfront investment as you don't have to invest in stock or manufacturing.
The biggest question that often stops those who are looking to create their online business is - but what can you sell?

So if you've decided to give digital product sales a go, but can't think of a great niche product that's perfect for you to sell, then this list is for you.

Giant list of 101 digital products you can sell, divided it into different categories for easier browsing. Use this as a source of inspiration, and don't be afraid to think outside the box and come up with your own unique spin on a product to sell.

With that in mind, here are 101 ideas of products you can sell online that are guaranteed to bring value to a niche audience.

Writing:

Self-publishing has become a modern-day reality, letting anyone with anything to offer the world the ability to make it available online (and sell it, too!). Put words into documents, be it an ebook or a PDF, and turn words into value.

Take WLA Landscape Architecture Magazine, for example, a bimonthly landscape architecture magazine publishing projects from across the world.
