Is this PLR unique to the internet?

If I buy PLR at a site, tradebit.com is that content 100% unique?

Like, if I buy it, am I the only one who gets to buy it? Has the content already been used and published before it was sold as PLR?

    Anyone and everyone (unless there is a limit of sales listed) can buy a piece of PLR. Usually all rights are sold with the item you buy except the right to sell it as PLR. You need to check and make sure you know what rights you are being given, though, because some people can be sneaky about keeping rights that limit your use of the material.

    As far as if the content in the PLR itself is unique.....it's hard to say unless there is a statement of that sort made on the sales page. If you want to know if the PLR was original when offered for sale, you have to ask.

    So it's not typical for plr to be unique? It's usually used before, and given away to many?

    I'm kind of new to how it works.

      PLR rights can cover all sorts of things. Some PLR products are products that people sold for themselves and they don't want to bother with it anymore so they sell the PLR rights. Obviously, you need to either find a new market or completely change the product.

      Some PLR is created just for PLR. It hasn't been used before, however, it will be sold to a number of people. Some will limit that to 30 or 50 licenses. Others put no limits and those could sell thousands in the end.

      No PLR is unique. Unique content is something you hire a writer to do. PLR is cheaper because it's not unique. Even if you are the first to buy it, the owner will sell it many more times.

    Hmm...Interesting. Which brings me to this question.

    Can you buy 'unique' pre written content anywhere?

      I've only ever seen it on Digital Point and it's hit or miss. Some of them just outright lie and give you regular old PLR. Some of them will give you unique but spun and unreadable. Others will sell you somewhat decent articles. Some sell it to you, then turn around and sell it again after.

      Don't expect anything really good, though. But I've bought some that only took a bit to fix up.

        Pre-written - probably not. But you can hire writers to write content for you. That's a common outsourcing path for marketers to take as it saves time and not everyone is able to write their own articles or site content.

    I wouldn't expect a decent writer to do unique for the price of PLR, though.
    PLR is cheap because it's sold to several, many, whatever.

    If you want quality work done for you, you need to be ready to spend for a quality piece. Writing correctly is a skill that takes time to hone (and education). There are a lot of people hiring out very cheaply but they haven't a clue what a decent piece of writing is.

    It really depends what you want to do with it if you want it or not. I do reports and those never go on the site in that form, they are for email capture, but they can be torn apart into articles, etc. You can buy articles and either drop them on your site as is, or do a little re-writing to make them more unique. You really just need to weigh what you want to do with it to decide if it's worth it. Many people seem to use well written PLR and get good results from it.

    To be frank - if you are just looking for articles to put on your site, get them from a submission site. You can see what the piece is so you know you've got quality and putting someone else's credits with their article doesn't detract from your authority at all. In fact, having other people's input on your site just makes you look all the more in touch with your specific community.

    I doubt ANYONE will create UNIQUE content to sell exclusively on an ongoing basis. It makes NO sense! If it had value, they would sell it THEMSELVES at a lower price. If it had NO value, WHY did they write it?

    so there are really TWO logical possibilities....

    1. They wrote it for SOMEONE ELSE that didn't pay, and just want their money!
    2. They are in the "PLR BUSINESS" and offer it to MANY at a HIGHER price! The price is more than they would get for NO rights, but LOWER than it would be if it were EXCLUSIVE!

    BTW Writers do things differently! A person says they want a certain type of GIBBERISH, and the writer may write it because they KNOW that person is likely to buy it EVEN if THEY see it as having NO value. THAT would be exclusive. If the original person decides NOT to pay, the writer may sell it at near the original promised price, on the open market.

    Why not buy some good quality PLR and then rewrite it so that it is unique. It is still much quicker and easier to rewrite PLR than to write your own articles from scratch and much cheaper than paying someone to write unique content for you.

    Some PLR sites will also have limitations on how many they sell so that there aren't thousands of the same articles around.
