With just a few articles you have an online business

When you buy articles with PLR (private label rights),
you can bundle them into a report and create a lead
generation system with it: free report to give away
and capture leads + autoresponder series with some
extra pieces of content

You can also use these articles, or part of it
on article directories and drive traffic

You could also use them to create squidoo pages,
hub pages and other traffic feeding 3rd party
services and drive more traffic to your websites.

You could turn them into videos by pasting
their main bullet points into 2 or 3 powerpoint
slides

You could of course do all the above AND also
publish them on your blog, or on any other
website system (such as Creative Niche Builder,
Site Profit Bot...)

See, we might not even stop when we read
"PLR articles" since it's so overused...
but still you can create a lead generation website
with its traffic system with just a few PLR articles.

Are you taking attention to PLR articles?

Are you doing any of the above with your content?

99% simply don't do anything. And I have no idea why.
Especially, when the same 99% then buy any info
product about some hidden traffic secrets, or
guru tips to generate traffic and make mo*ney
online.

With just a few articles you have an online business.
PERIOD!

Taking action is what matters. Nothing else.
Nowadays, with any good hosting plan with cpanel
you can create a wordpress blog with one click
without messing with database stuff. From your wordpress
dashbaord, you can then upload templates and plugins automatically
too

Introduction

In the fast paced world of Internet marketing the cliché “content is king” still holds true. Providing unique and interesting content for the masses is fast becoming one of the best ways to stay on top in the Internet marketing business.
So how can a successful entrepreneur stay in the curve without spending every waking minute writing? The answer to that question may well be private label rights articles and ebook. There have been numerous threads in marketing forums asking if PLR is dead, some simply saying that all PLR packages out there are just crap. It only show a deep misunderstanding of what PLR is and how powerful it can be if correctly used. Just to make it clear:

PLR: The most powerful of all rights

If you are new to internet marketing and don't know what Private Label Rights are, here is a short explanation.
Private label rights (PLR) give you limited editorial rights that allow you to rewrite,edit, and re-author content such as ebooks and articles. PLR products can include graphic images, software, and source codes, depending on the type of product but we are going to cover text content only in this report.. Do not confuse resell rights with Private Label rights. Whereas with PLR you have the right to change and edit the content, resell rights only allow you the right to sell the content, but not change it in any way. Private label rights give you limited rights to edit or rewrite the content, add affiliate links, or sponsored product recommendations and then claim it for your own.
To put it differently, basically you can modify the content to allow a greater variety of cash producing venues . For instance, you could include affiliate links to your sponsor’s products where other affiliate links may have existed, add links to your other sites to increase traffic, or add product reviews for products that are similar or compliment the information in the ebook/article. Private label rights content is so versatile and can be used in viral marketing, second chance or back-end sales, building traffic through links or for resale. You can also split up articles, ebooks or reports into email “classes” called ecourses or use several articles and make an ebook; the possibilities are HUGE.
Basically, when you get your hands on a PLR article or package of articles, that package becomes yours as if you had written the articles yourself. You can do anything you like with them (a warning though : most of the time, you’re not allowed to transfer those rights to any one) But this is where people run into problems. They get these packages and then,instead of rewriting them so that they truly DO become their own, they try submitting them to directories or selling them without doing a blessed thing to them (then they only use a fraction of their rights as they don’t edit nor modifiy the content…simply reselling it as is)

PLR For Search Engine Optimization

Many marketers are reluctant to purchase and use private label content because they fear their site will receive the dreaded “duplicate content penalty” from Google and other search engines. The fear is that the penalty will dry up their traffic, hence their cash flow. There is no reason for the users of private label rights content to fear penalization via the duplicate content penalty if you edit your content correctly.
Then some marketers tend to lean the other way completely and do not edit the PLR content at all with no fear of penalization.
The purpose of buying a PLR article package is not so you have a ready made pop it in the oven piece of work to throw out there like yesterday’s trash. It’s so that you don’t have to spend the time researching a topic that you know NOTHING or LITTLE about. Do you have ANY idea how long it takes to thoroughly research a topic, any topic?
To write an article from scratch, you MUST, if you don’t want to get hit with tons of plagiarism lawsuits, research a minimum of 3 to 5 articles and then COMPLETELY write a NEW article on the subject matter, taking NOTHING from the original 3 to 5 articles (depending on the length of you article).
It will take you around 1 to 2 hours to write an article from scratch. It could take you only 10 minutes to rewrite an existing article to transform it into a unique article. Same result…but you save 90% of your time, or to say it another way : when you write 1 single article from scratch, you can rewrite 10 and feel confident with the results.
Many people do not understand the importance of changing and modifying private label rights content for search engine optimization.
Have a look at all sites with good ranking in search engines. Pick up a topic you like and browse the highest ranked sites. They all have on thing in common : they are all loaded with content.
Content is king, no matter what you think about it.
You don’t have to like the fact that in order to move steadily up the search engine ranks you need to constantly add content to your site, but you darn better well accept it because it is a fact of Internet marketing life that is NOT going to go away.
Then take a run over to Ezine Articles or any of the other top directories and you’ll see tons of articles written on thousands of subject. Do you know why so many people are into article marketing? Because it works and it’s so simple.


Easiest Traffic Generation Method Online
1. Write an article with a link to your site in the resource box

2. Submit the article to Ezine Articles.

3. Watch the traffic come to your site.

But some people can’t write and have no desire to learn how to write. That’s where PLR comes in, and done correctly, it can be VERY beneficial. Almost as beneficial as writing your own content from scratch. It can be seen as even more beneficial as you can create more content that way (using PLR materials) than creating it from scratch.

The duplicate content penalty is a major motivator to changing your PLR content but not the only reason. Let me explain: duplicate content is either completely matching other content or is very similar. If contents of one page on the internet or within the same website are the same or similar to another, it is considered duplicate content and is penalized accordingly by web crawlers and that should be avoided if you are interested in gaining traffic via search engines (you will not be as much penalized if your site is already gaining an ‘authority’ level thanks to relevant and strong backlinks).

Although there are many different search engines that web surfers use to search out the information they are looking for online, in this report we will mainly use Google as a reference.

Google’s spider (sometimes called crawler or robot) is a script that browses the Internet to gather information for Google’s index.
When Google’s spiders crawl a website, they like to index each page and show pages with good, fresh information. These spiders see duplex content and will not list more than one set of the content. For example: if your site has articles in both a normal version and a printer version and one or the other is not blocked in robots.txt or via a no follow or no index meta tag, the spider will choose one version of the text to list but not both.

Google won't view the same content written in English and French or German as
duplicate articles but using private label right materials without changing it will
definitely be a red light to search engine crawlers. Anyone using the bum marketing method or a system using search engine optimization to gain traffic should really be aware of how to use private label rights article content correctly.
Often, Google sees duplicate content with the intent to twist ranking and to trick
web surfers; they make adjustments in the indexing and ranking of the websites found doing so. Although most of the time Google uses filtering rather than ranking adjustments, which will cause the website with duplicate content to have a undesirable version of a page shown in their index.
But it gets even worse.
Let’s say you submit that article to Ezine Articles (more on this in the next section) and they do their own research and find out that this is a PLR article. They will not only reject the article but they may also ban you from submitting anything to them ever again.
The advantage with editing and rewriting content is that you'll have more chances of having more versions of your content appear in the first few pages of the search engines.
Although there is still no certainty as no one can accurately predict the minimum percentage of changes required to avoid duplicate content, a good rule of thumb is 25% or more. The search engines' algorithms also change often so checking your stats on indexing and updating the percentage of changes per article is a must.

PLR For Article Submission

One of the top techniques of making money with private label rights content is submitting free reprint articles to article directories in order to promote your website.Article directories have established themselves as traffic generators for Internet marketers all over the planet. Marketers acknowledge the potential that article writing has for their business and they are continuously trying to get the best out of what this kind of content strategy can do.

Article directory websites can be used to submit articles to in order to promote your website or you can use them yourself to find content resources for your own emails, blog, or ezine. You can gain exposure to your website and get traffic through articles by using the author information box at the bottom of the article and by creating more incoming links to your website within the articles themselves. Each article should include at least one link back to your site, (in the body of your article, or in the author's information box). Articles with links added to the author's information box help increase the page rank of your website because the link is placed on both the article website and from the websites that use the freely offered articles.

Step One:

Change your title first, before anything else

The first thing you need to do is change the title. This is an absolute MUST. By changing the title, you have already changed the most important part of the whole article.
Why?
The reason is because the thing that most people will remember about an article is the title. Plus, when you go to the search engines and look up a subject, the first thing you will find in the listing IS the title. So the last thing you want is to have a title that is the same as the original article.
The first few words of your article title may just determine the amount of success your article will have. The three to five words a reader sees first in a title has the most impact on the amount of clicks your article receives in the long list of similar articles. A provocative title can make or break your article in terms of how much traffic it generates back to your website.

Create keyword rich titles with power phrases for your articles that match the most commonly searched keywords for your topic. The English language is filled with words. Grab yourself a thesaurus and look up substitutions for various words. You could easily come up with 20 or 30 titles for the topic of this book. All it takes is just a little thought.

Total time for coming up with a new title is about 15 seconds

Step Two:

Choose a keyword

You'll want to add your own keywords not only to your title, but to your articles because most often the PLR articles you have received have not been written with any particular keyword or density in mind.
Keyword density refers to the number of times an identified keyword appears within a given piece of text relative to the entire length of that text. It is usually expressed as a percentage. Although there are many perspectives regarding what constitutes an optimal keyword density, most would agree that a rate somewhere between 1% and 5% is usually adequate. This means that a designated keyword will appear in an article one to five times for every one hundred words. If one is seeking a density of approximately 1.5% for a five hundred word article, the keyword should make seven or eight appearances.
Once you have your keyword chosen then you can simply use the search and replace feature of your word processor to start by replacing a keyword not of your choosing. Then simply add a few sentences here and there throughout your article that will complement your keyword preferences.
