How to use PLR articles?

12 replies
Hi, I found a pack of very good PLR articles and I want to use them as blog posts on my website but I am unsure how to use them. Even though it is written on the articles that I can use these articles any way I want but I am still unsure if I can copy and paste them on my website or do I need to make some changes before posting onto my website.

Wouldn't there be any duplicate content issue if I use them as they are? Can anyone tell me how to make the best use of PLR articles so that I will not have any issue in the future?

    When you buy PLR you have the right to put your name to the articles.
    However, as you say there is a risk of duplication.

    Rewrite the articles to avoid obvious duplication of content and also to
    prevent a slap from the search engines when you post on your blog.

    As the warrior said above me, it would make sense to rewrite the articles.

    Today, I was planning on buying a "healthy eating" plr pack that was just released yesterday and I was going to repurpose it for kindle. It turns out, today I looked up "healthy eating" in the kindle store and what do you know... one of the ebooks in the plr pack is being offered in the kindle store for free, unedited. That totally screwed up my options.

    So, I say that to say, please rewrite. I mean, I was going to rewrite it anyway (if I bought it), but it would have been nice to not see what I was going to rewrite already being "sold" or "given away".

    If you decide to not rewrite, at least change the format of the content (i.e. record audio and/or videos from the plr articles) to differentiate from the text everyone has.

    p.s. I'd still say to rewrite it... lol

    Due to Google Panda, it would be a HORRIBLE idea to publish them on your site.

    Instead, use them for social media influencer marketing CREDIBILITY BUILDING.

    You can also use them for 'filler' links when trying to build credibility with your list subscribers...

    Hi Omar123:

    You could divide the PLRs into mini books or get creative and make them into courses.
    The e-book angle would be to offer one as a give away to get a subscriber's email address at first.
    You could then offer them another 1 or 2 more books after they have subscribed and opened your emails for a week, two weeks, or month. You decide how long.
    That way they could be used to increase engagement.

    Regards,

    Dan

    You can package them as your freebie or ethical bribe on your blog. Then it will be a PDF and you don't need to worry about SEO.

    I would still modify them though to let your personality shine through and correct any ideas you might not agree with.

    You can also turn them into audios or videos to create higher value.

    Personally, I found I modified the content so much I would rather write my own. I have found only one source I really liked.

    If they are good and you're fairly diligent you can just read over them , then simply write it in your own words. This will work fine on your Site

    you can publish them on your site un edited... no bother.... as long as your whole site is not made up of them then it is no problem at all...

    Mixing PLR in with your own good unique content is a good way to give your readers what they want and gives you a chance to take a breather

    You don't.

    They are almost always used on many other platforms and can cause duplicate content issues.

    I wouldn't even spin them and use it for tiered link building when I can just find an original one and spin it.

    You could also turn them into videos.. use the PLR as your script.

    ...or save the audio track as an MP3 and use it as a podcast.

    It also works really well as email content for your lists (if you don't know much about the niche).

    Personally I rarely use PLR on a website.. and detest article spinners.

    The duplicate content penalty is when you post the same content on the same site multiple times. It is not when an article is syndicated on many sites. Just look at all the news sites that run the same syndicated article.

    Yes you can post them on your site if the PLR license permits it. But...

    What I do is write in intro and outro to the PLR. I also edit the PLR enough to make it read more in my voice.
