How to Distribute OS X application Update which is distributed outside the Mac App Store

I would like to know which is the best way to distribute a Mac App's Update to my existing app users.

App is distribute out side the Mac App Store so can not use the app store to distribute the update

I would like to do similar to VyprVPN like Download the new version close the app install new version and relaunch the app and this whole thing done without any user interaction.

I want to do like, Application Installed on my user's Mac now I release new version of my Application then how can I update Application already installed ( Previous Version ) in my user's Mac.

Edits:

I tried to Implement the Sparkle Framework for app update features.

But when i try to update my app I receive the PopUp saying new version of application is available but when I tried to install the new version error occurs saying UPDATE Error An error occurred while downloading the update. Please try again later.

Now I could not find reason of this behaviour. Can any one help me in this?

Thanks in advance

You can build the Sparkle framework into your app, and then your app can discover and install future updates.
