What are PLR Articles

Are the PLR articles the ones that you can buy them and use them only yourself? No duplicate content, no spinning? Cause if yes i would like to purchase some, and where can i find a trusted source that can provide unique articles, that are not written on other blogs. I currently using UAW, and the website just dropped from PR 1 to PR 0. So i am thinking on this alternative, i don't have enough money to hire a writer.

    Don't use PLR for your sites if you don't want to be penalized by Google.

    You need original, unique content.

    PLR is distributed to many or a limited number of people. It is not unique. You can rewrite it and make it unique or you can hire someone to write unique content for you, or of course, write it yourself.

    PLR articles are articles sold to several people, so they aren't unique, but they can help you come up with unique content much faster. You can quickly rewrite or edit them so they pass copyscape, use them as part of an autoresponder series, use them to create products, and more. They are actually very useful. I use it on tons of my sites, you just have to get the high quality stuff.

      Only if you're too cheap to pay for good PLR. When you buy from the right people, the articles are excellent, interesting and informative.

      No, for that you want to find a ghostwriter. But it will cost you a lot more than PLR will.

      Bullpuckey. This is not and never has been true. The worst thing that may happen to a page that is not unique is that it ends up in the supplemental index. Your site would only suffer if all you did was use other people's content, like scraper sites do. And there are plenty of ways to add uniqueness to PLR.

    PLR articles can save you time and money. To get the best value of the articles, you should re-write them as much as you can, incorporating keywords into the content in a natural way. As Amanda has said, you should look for quality PLR resources.

    Another use of good PLR articles is that you can use them as the basis to develop e-courses.

    I became interested in textbroker, made an account there, and saw that they have quite good rates, starting from 0.012$ per word. Another question will be: In the past i have used UAW which generated me 4000+ spune articles (i believe that those are very low quality). What would you suggest: Should i deleted the 4000+ articles and add new ones from the textbrooker team, or leave it like it is and simply add the new quality ones?

      Spinning really isn't worth it. Try and get some high quality articles. Realize you will have to pay for quality... many of the one cent per word writers are not going to give you really high quality writing.

    As above, FORGET all the shortcuts, the software, the cheap deals.

    Quality Costs Money. Fact.

    There is a saying that goes like this, "You only get, what you pay for" And hell, how true it is.

    PLR isn't sold to 1 person, it's generally sold to several people and reused, however most people edit the PLR articles that they buy, to make them unique.

    Yes, PLR is sold to more than one person, and if you need it to be unique you have to rewrite it - but you don't always require uniqueness. If you're going to be using it in an autoresponder series, for example, that will only be available as emails, duplication and uniqueness are irrelevant.

    You do have to make sure the content is high quality, of course, if you care at all about your list!

      You can make your plr articles as unique as you like, with a little thought and imagination. If you're still a little unsure, why not get your hands on some free plr and see what you can come up with. There are plenty of good quality freebies around this site.

    I would personally stay away from the '1000 PLR article packs' as the articles tend to be poorly written and have been used so many times. There are a lot of PLR writers on here that sell 5 or 10 pack articles that are of good quality and will not have been sold in massive quantities. Some PLR writers will also restrict the number of each article pack sold.

    To make your content unique, you should rewrite some of the PLR. If it is good quality to begin with this will be fairly easy, but if the quality is poor it can take more time to rewrite an article than to write it from scratch!
