How to use plr articles to make money

13 replies
Hey guys,

I see a lot of plr products online and I even have some, but I don't really know how to make money from them because I think they will hurt your seo instead of improving it. So is there any way to make money from them?

Thanks

    IMO PLR articles are simply no good for SEO.

    It is very likely that using them will put you in the path of Panda, leading to a penalty/filter/lack of success somehow.

    That being said, you could sell them to people who don't know about good content, or people who think that cheaper IS simply better. There is money in them.

    But than you are giving people something that expects them to work but it won't help them at all so than you will probably lose their trust right? So that's also not good...

      Most successful article marketers don't rely on seo for their main stream of traffic and the traffic that does come from search engines doesn't convert as well as other traffic streams.

      That being said, there are actually a plethora of uses for PLR over and beyond posting to your site and an article directory.

      Rewritten creatively and utilized creatively, PLR can be quite beneficial.

      If you do a search for PLR articles, you should find quite a bit of information on it.

    Wrong way of thinking folks.

    Any PLR material should be re-written and/or re-branded for best results. Yes, it takes some effort, but it should be considered a starting point for something unique, not something you dump on unsuspecting people without any effort.

    PLEASE don't re-sell PLR articles pretending like they are useful as-is. Yes, you can find ways to use it as is, but I'd rather you get my first thoughts into your mind.

    Also, make sure you have the proper resale rights if you are thinking of selling it. Generally called Master Resale Rights (MRR)

    You can always use PLR as a starting block to create ideas for creating your own product.

    This way you can start to create ideas and begin to build quality information products that are well written, designed and are going to help people ten fold with their future efforts.

    Make it stand out give more than the next guy etc etc...

    Hope this helps and all the best my friend!!!

    You can always rewrite some of your plr, package it into an ebook, then sell it on a website.

    Why is everything about SEO? Thats probably the most time consuming and expensive way to get traffic.

    Plus if you are depending on SEO, guess what? You have to be updating your site all the time. And apparently with unique content if you want to believe what people are saying in this thread.

    But, if you use other methods of driving traffic (social media, PPC, article syndication) you can actually build your entire site with PLR and not have to worry about slaving over your keyboard to write articles.

    Of course, you would want to use only the best PLR, PLR that converts your visitors for your most wanted response, so no crappy free stuff that you find everywhere.

    And you might want to tweak it to be in line with whatever angle you are using for the site.

    Plus, as mentioned above, there's lots more things you can do with PLR besides just putting them on a website. Compile them into a report that you can give away or sell, use them in an email sequence, make videos out of the content etc...

      Lee has brought up a very valid point when considering which PLR to purchase over and beyond creatively utilizing it.

      There are a lot of crap PLR authors out there just as there are a lot of crap article writers. The key is in finding someone who is a talented PLR writer, one who captivates their audience with their weaving together of their words as well as doing proper research. Purchasing quality PLR from those authors is the equivalent of purchasing your jewelry from Jared's as opposed to from Walmart, for example.

      There are quite a few excellent writers that offer outstanding PLR right here on this very forum. You should check out the WSO section, Warriors for Hire section as well as individual signatures.

    You may benefit from adding the PLR in asa bonus to your own product.

    But I would shy away from from selling just PLR.

    Even though people say PLR content is no good for SEO, I've personally seen them still ranking, and this is in 2015. It could just be that the long tail keywords I search for have no good unique content for Google to rank but yeah, I have seen it.

    What I do recommend you do it, use PLR content as idea generators for writing your unique SEO content and use it as optin bonuses under your posts. Works great for me

    Never use PLR content for SEO. That is a big NO!

    You can sell them or put them together to make an ebook out of them. Then give that ebook away as a lead magnet - to build your email list.

    And then just monetize that email list!

    That would be one good way to put the PLR content to good use!

    You can also sell them, since they are PLR. You can sell them to a lot of people. You just need to find the buyers, thats all.

    I hope this helps!
