PLR and A Blog = Great Business Model, Traffic, Indexing, Making Money

I have been using this model for a couple of months now, and it is an excellent model.

Here is exactly what I did and why.

I was looking for a domain name for a recipe site, and went to Godaddy to see what was available. I normally put in something that often is taken, and I wait to see what else is offered. I think I put in recipes dot com

As I looked at the options, one stood out and it had blog in the url. I went to namecheap and bought it.

No keyword research, nothing just acted on instinct. I knew that the url could be used to do various things. I also knew there were products with CJ which could be sold there.

I sat on the domain name, only because I didn't have time to do anything with it. I knew that at some stage I would do something.

I saw a WSO for unique articles and I got some written on the topic.

I also had a recipe book which had various related recipes and that book was a PLR that I had bought on ebay for $0.99 a couple of years ago. Bought because I love to cook.

I have some personal recipes on the subject as well.

I decided to create a website with it, and installed a wordpress blog through fantastico.

I then created the template using Rapid Niche Websites, and for the header I used a PLR header which I had.

I uploaded the site, and then started to add the content.

I used a mixture of articles (which were written for me) and PLR recipes.

Putting a recipe each day or two was simple as copy and pasting from the PLR.

I then loaded my autoresponder with some more recipes and those who sign up get 1 recipe a week.

I have affiliate products for sale there which was as simple as applying via CJ, and putting some from Amazon.

Results we get around 800 unique visitors each month in the 3 months since I started this blog.

We have been indexed and have 1st position for 10 different keywords.

We have a PR1 recently put on the blog.

And the majority of content there is from a PLR receipe book.

Advertising, I have mentioned on twitter when I have put a new recipe on the blog, and have had it in my signature here.

Most of the traffic has come through Google.

Use PLR but use it wisely, and putting on a blog and in your autoresponder works.
