After writing a bit about how and why you should rewrite PLR articles, I decided to look at some automated ways of doing it, namely a PLR article rewriting software.

As you know, there are quite a few ways of rewriting PLR articles:

• Rewrite them manually, or outsource the rewriting
• Use an article spinner software, that can generate up to a hundred or more versions of the same article
• Use a semi automated tool like the PLR Article Toolkit, which is a part of this HUGE collection of PLR and MRR products
• Use a true article rewriting software

Any of the above methods is fine, depending on your needs and abilities.

Of course, manual rewriting of PLR articles is the best, but it may not be feasible for everyone, especially if you don’t have a lot of time (or money to outsource), and/or English is not your first language. But if this is what you want to do, here are a few tips on rewriting PLR articles.

Similarly, PLR article spinners are fine if you want to just post some garbage all over the net, without any concern for quality. Now, I am not saying that all article spinners generate garbage. It’s just that this is what I have heard about all of them. If there is good one that I haven’t heard about, please let me know in the comments below.

The PLR Articles Toolkit is a great set of software tools that can semi automate the task of rewriting PLR articles. It provides a lot of options to make the articles unique, and even convert a whole directory of PLR articles into web pages at the click of a button. You can get the PLR Articles Toolkit as a part of this package of PLR and MRR products.

But if you don’t want to do even that much work, you may want to look at the fourth option – a PLR article rewriting software.

Why PLR article rewriting software and tools are good

If you need to rewrite a lot of articles, the cost or time involved will quickly add up. For example:

• If you spend 30 minutes rewriting an article manually, it will take you 25 hours to rewrite 50 articles. What is your time worth in dollars?
• If you spend $5 per article on outsourcing the rewriting job, you need $250 to get 50 articles rewritten!

As you can see, things quickly add up when you have a lot of articles that need rewriting.

This is where a rewriting software or tool comes in handy, because it can save you both money and time.

My recommended PLR article rewriting software

I took a look at a few software and tools that promise to do the job, and among the ones that I looked at, I found The Best Spinner to be the best. I don’t know if it’s the absolute best, but it’s the best among the ones I looked at or heard of. And even though it has the word “Spinner” in its name, it really is an article rewriter.

I urge you to give it a try. You can read more details and even watch a video about it here.

Do you use a PLR article rewriting software yourself? What is your experience? Can you share a tip, insight, or a tool that you think will help others? Please comment below.

You know how important backlinks are to your site, right?

But unless you are an expert at creating content SO awesome that everyone wants to link to it on their own, how do you actually get backlinks?

Here is how most people do it (though I am about to describe an easier way later in this post):

• Write articles and submit them to article directories (Cons: Needs approval from the administrators/editors, and you cannot usually post PLR articles)
• Submit your sites to directories (Cons: Chances of getting rejected, and long waiting times for approval)
• Post in various forums, with links to your sites in your sig or profile (Cons: You can’t look like you are marketing or spamming the forums. You need to actually come up with something valuable to say or ask if you want to get your posts past the moderators.)
• Create a network of sites with links to each of the sites you own (Cons: Google will detect what you are doing)
• Participate in a three-way or one-way link network (Cons: Sooner or later Google will detect what you are up to, and penalize all the sites in the network, including yours.)
• Exchange links with other sites (reciprocal linking) (Cons: Not all webmasters are willing to link back. Most don’t even respond to link exchange requests.)
• Comment on other people’s blogs (Cons: It takes a bit of skill to get your comments past the moderator/blog owner’s ego and you need to think of something original, valuable, and non-spammy to say each time you want to post a comment.)
• And of course, the classic one – create content that is so sexy, everyone wants to link to it (Cons: Admit it, if you could do it, you wouldn’t be reading this! )
• Create linkbaits (Cons: See above)

You can either do the above steps yourself, or you can outsource them. And each of the steps mentioned comes with a price – money or work. That’s OK though, since nothing worth getting is free or easy.

Or is it?

And what about the cons associated with each of them anyway? In most cases, you will notice that the biggest hurdle is getting your post/article/comment past someone who is just itching to zap it.

So is there an easier way?

Yes there is, fortunately.

This insight has resulted in a five figure income for me in the past six months or so. It’s a game changer, as far as I am concerned.

Before I share the insight with you, tell me something:

Why do we outsource?

Well, I think we outsource stuff for two reasons:

1. To save time
2. To save money

Outsourcing saves time because it lets us delegate the work to someone else while we do something that is more important or enjoyable.

And outsourcing saves money as well because it’s more expensive in many cases to do it yourself, thus robbing yourself of time to do more important stuff, or because it’s costly to do it wrong (for example, if you are not a designer, and try to design your site yourself, it may well cost you a lot in lost sales).

So yeah, outsourcing rocks.

But is there a way to make outsourcing even better?

What if we could save even more time and save even more money as we outsource? Is it possible?

Can we reduce the time it takes to outsource to someone and get back the result to a bare minimum, say a few minutes or seconds?

And can we reduce the money it takes to get our desired outcome to pennies on the dollar?

Can we?

Yes!

Outsourcing is a process. What you want is results.

So why not focus on the results, and skip the process?

Create time and money by investing into results, not the process.

For example, if you want a site design, it’s quicker and cheaper to just buy a web template, rather than hiring a designer to do it for you. Just look for a design that meets your needs, customize it to your tastes and requirements, and you are good to go. Takes just an hour or two at the max.

Another example: If you want to add content to your site, it’s quicker and cheaper to get hold of a few PLR articles and just add them to your site after rewriting them a bit.

Yet another example: If you want to sell products of your own, it’s much quicker and cheaper to buy a product with resale rights than it is to create one from scratch or hiring someone to create it for you.

The power of outsourcing without hiring

Do you see it now?

You were going to spend money anyway (on outsourcing).

But when you buy tools and products that let you bypass the whole process, you not only save a lot of money, you also save a lot of time.

It’s outsourcing on steroids.

And oh, these tools and products that you buy? Well, they will never make lame excuses like their Internet connection broke down, or their hard drive crashed, or they were sick, and so on. They will be there when you need them. No delays. No excuses.

Recommended resources:

Hundreds of thousands of PLR articles with tools to make them unique (outsource article writing AND the “rewriting” too)

20 resale rights products every week, in a variety of niches (outsource product creation)

How I made a mistake about the Resale Avalanche Club

Firstly, I am sure you know about the Resale Avalanche Club that I recently launched. It’s great in many ways, except that it’s too darn cheap, and that is causing me problems because it doesn’t even cover my hosting fees. Let me explain.

For 10 bucks a month, you get access to 80+ products that you can sell and make money from immediately.

It turns out I made a mistake

I made a mistake in keeping the price so low. And I made a mistake in offering such a huge number of free products as soon as you join. Let me explain.

These products cover all niches, not just the IM niche. (OK…)

The products are e-books, audio books, video courses, software, scripts, plug-ins, graphics, and much more. (Hmmm…)

Some products are so huge that they are divided into four parts – each part ranging anywhere from 40+MB to 100+MB! (Wow!)

As if that wasn’t enough, I am giving away 50 products as a free gift to all the early adopters of the club. (Double WOW!)

So if you join today, you not only get all that I mentioned above, you get an additional 50 products the moment you join, ready for you to download.

As you can imagine, with SUCH a huge number of products, and SUCH huge download sizes, I can’t even cover my hosting fees with the current membership fees.

Like I said, I made a mistake.

$10/month is TOO darn low.

I am sorry I made that mistake. I will have to raise the price.

But to be fair to everyone, I will leave the current price for ONE more day. I will raise it tomorrow, Monday, May 25th, 2009. That’s when the membership fees will go to its proper value of $37/month.

I’m sorry about such a short notice, but I hope you understand. The way it is now, I am LOSING money on each membership.

It’s still a steal at $37/month, but if you want, you can join before I raise the price.

Cheers, and enjoy!

Update: As I said, the membership price has now been raised to $37/month. It’s still a steal at this price, so be sure to check it out here: http://www.plr-packs.com/resale-avalanche-club/

What do I mean PLR articles are commodity products?

What I mean is that you could easily interchange one PLR article with another or one source of PLR articles with another, and it would make no difference.

But first, a step back…

What are commodity products?

According to Wikipedia:

A commodity is something for which there is demand, but which is supplied without qualitative differentiation across a market. It is a product that is the same no matter who produces it, such as petroleum, notebook paper, or milk. In other words, copper is copper. Rice is rice. Stereos, on the other hand, have many levels of quality. And, the better a stereo is, the more it will cost. The price of copper is universal, and fluctuates daily based on global supply and demand.

In plain English, it means two things:

1. Quality is not an issue when it comes to commodity products – it’s more or less the same across the entire range.
2. The price of a commodity product is only determined by supply and demand.

How this relates to PLR articles

PLR articles are PLR articles are PLR articles. Where you get your PLR articles doesn’t really matter folks, as long as you keep getting articles on topics that you need.

Because come to think of it. The reason why you use PLR articles and don’t write your own content is that you don’t have time to create your own content, lend it your own “voice” and don’t care enough about the topic to do heavy research and probably you don’t care a lot about the quality either.

PLR articles are usually used as filler content.

So yes, it doesn’t matter where you got your PLR articles, as long as they meet some minimum quality standards, and are relevant to the topic of your website.

So that takes care of criteria number one – quality.

The price of PLR articles

So what should PLR articles cost? Exactly what any commodity product would cost – the lowest possible price that will allow the sellers to still make a profit and stay in business.

As the number of people selling PLR articles goes up, their prices should go down.

And seeing the number of people selling PLR articles on the web today, it seems that there are plenty of providers of PLR content.

What it means for you

The more sellers there are for PLR articles, the better for you (as a user of PLR content), because it means prices can only go down.

There will of course be a few providers who do provide unique PLR content, and they will always charge a premium price. You should use these if you want to truly stand out from your competition using strictly PLR material.

But if your goal is to get a site or blog going quickly and filling it up with content to help drive some search engine traffic, you should think about using PLR articles packs that are available at rock bottom prices. You can always add your own unique content later, if the niche proves to be a good source of income.

And speaking of rock bottom prices, why not get some free PLR articles?
