Could you please suggest me some web place where I can put my application
for a selling. If it is possible to pay percentage
according to a trade (What if no one want y product :) ).

I recommend you google for "shareware" and you'll probably find lots of
sites which offer shareware for download. Then simply contact those sites
and offer to provide your shareware to be added to their list. Many of the
sites will host your shareware for free, because they generate revenue from
ads and attract viewers by having a large list of shareware.

There's no rule. You can charge anything you want. Obviously, the more
you charge, the fewer sales you're likely to make.

There is this "association of Shareware Professionals"
http://www.asp-shareware.org/

Maybe they can give some information. I have never dealed with them, so
I don't know if they are serious.
