It was announced this morning that a new marketplace site, the Tuts+ Marketplace, has launched today as a place to buy and sell tutorials, screencasts, and ebooks.

The new marketplace already offers a small selection of WordPress content. For those inclined toward creating and selling WordPress how-to material this is a nice chance to stand out by releasing content now, before the crowd begins to form.

With nearly 500,000 members, the Tuts+ Marketplace is not a bad place to peddle your WordPress wares. Your cut of sales for new products starts at 40-70% (a rate that will rise soon), depending on whether you sell exclusively with the Marketplace or not.
