PLR Premade Niches--could you advise me?

PLR is risky because there are people on this forum selling PLR stuff that is actually content stolen from other sites.

DMCA complaint = strong chance of AdSense ban.

I agree PLR is risky, it would be better investing the time in conducting some proper market research into a niche to see if there is a demand for anything. Just because someone is selling PLR does not mean there is a hungry market associated with it and you can never tell if the content is stolen, duplicated or been sold a million times.

PLR is great if you know how to use them. They are already researched content, so they can save you bouts of time. That said, they are meant to be rewritten before use, not to be used as is. You don't want duplicate content on your site.

PLR blogs are no different than any other blog except that the design and some starter content has already been done. They require the same amount of effort to promote as any other blog. You need to add your own unique content to them and promote them to get them earning. As for people saying they have stolen content ... BS. I know a lot of people who sell PLR and PLR blogs here and don't sell stolen content.

In one niche, one of my customers is making $1,500/mnth in affiliate commissions from a blog he bought from me. It took him around 6 months to get it there, but obviously worth the time.

PLR blogs are pretty easy to find. My recommendation would be to go into a single niche and get a decent PLR pack. After you set up your site and have your content uploaded all you need to do is build your audience and drive traffic.

After you have traffic coming in you need to figure out how you are going to monetize your traffic as well (build your list, affiliate marketing, create a product, etc.)

It's a good basis to start with and as long as you add quality andbunique content you will do ok....

I don't steal content either....

Aiming for a $1 site isn't recommended. You might be better off selling your own $7 ebook. You'd be able to put your all into that 1 site, and monetize it quickly - and also get lots of backend sales.

Thanks for all the feedback!

Here's the intended method, since I've actually launched 5 sites using it.
-I bought 26 PLR sites on various evergreen topics.
-picked the one I liked to do first, which was mental health
-used micro niche finder to find a good keyword that could become a domain.
-keyword for domain had to include keyword, and be .com
-keyword had to have upwards of 2000 searches, but not be aged necessarily.
-bought domain.
-installed PLR site
-IMMEDIATELY changed the clickbank, adsense and other code.
-Changed LOGO ( I was a designer and photoshop artist in NY for 20 years, so it's easy)
-added a stats plugin and a few others.
-added syndicator plugin and added twitter account with keyword.
-did some www.howismysite.com to get indexed.
So, this is a PLR site, with a few css color changes, a new URL and a custom logo

NOW,
here is were I want to see if it's a decent strategy
=====
-I saw on fiverr that I can have 10 articles rewritten to pass copyscape.
-the Site comes with 20, so I'll spend $10 and do all 20.
that should give me arguably original content if it passes copyscape.
-then use fiverr to begin to do backlinking, I have a provider in mind.
-If the site starts to produce I'll add 20 more original copyscape checked articles on the subject.
-If the magic starts to happen, add more articles, curate some articles, etc. Make it a good site.
-If it starts to earn, I'll keep it for a while, then FLIP it when I feel the time is right.

I've been fondly calling it the Christmas Tree method.

Please comment and or critique. I love to build, and have had success on flippa. but it irks me that I have trouble with getting niche or authority sites to earn.

My family built houses when I was young, and we had crews of amish that built them by hand. But the fact is you can get factory built houses that can be customized with whatever you want and they are actually better than the hand built. And require less effort, actually.

Basically, I need to get to 2000 per month for sustainability, and love to build.

Hey Randall! Great idea, and I've already written it. I'll send you a copy via pm and you can tell me what you think. It's all about my adventures in focus groups on Madison Avenue.

The only thing I can add is that 10 articles rewritten for $5 are likely to be really crappy rewrites, most likely from someone who's first language is not English. Better articles will drive more traffic and repeat visitors and lead to a higher resell value in the flipping marketplace. When I'm going to buy a site, I actually do read the articles and if they're junk, I move on. Anyone can fill a blog up with junk.
