Now you can finish tweaking the page however you want, and when you "publish" it, the file will be there ready to be downloaded when someone clicks it.

You can then redirect people to this page from your email sign-up page or wherever else you want.

If you want to add any more information about uploading files and offering downloads, that would be great.

I am curious to know if there are other options, such as downloads available via pop-up window instead.

Thanks for reading.

a second question that is slightly off topic. If you save an article that was previously published as a pdf and offer it this way, is this considered duplicate content?

probably not, but im not 100% sure on that. I imagine no, because Google wouldn't read the content

OK so pdf's are not crawled

The title of the pdf would be crawled but I imagine Google would have to download and read the pdf contents manually to determine what it was about, something I doubt the bots would do

Is this how it works with email autoresponders? The email points to the webpage which downloads the file?

I think you can include the file in your email if you want but for a free version such as this, you better do it this way.

Thanks for the training. I will have to check it out and see what to do now. I don't understand though how to have someone download a pdf that I would offer though. Do I put that in a media page? I might be mixed up. Thanks again.

Well let's say you want to offer a pdf to someone. You could create a new page called "FREE PDF" (or whatever you want) and on that page you would put whatever usual content you like, such as information about the pdf, pictures, screenshots, etc, then you would just go to "add media" as explained in the training, and add it into your page, just like if you were adding a photo. When someone clicks the pdf, it will automatically download.
