Article marketing is a very good way to accumulate backlinks that point back to your site and generate visitors. Unfortunately, search engine companies like Google have clammed down hard on duplicate content so your works must appear somewhat ‘original’ or unique to be acceptable in article directories. In this article you’ll discover 7 tips to rewriting one good article under 1 hour and you’ll have no worries about other writers accusing you of plagiarism.

First of all, there must be an appropriate mindset that comes before the skill. If I may attribute a quote by Stephen King correctly, he said, “The more you read, the more you write.” It simply means anyone is capable of mentally storing accumulated knowledge for as long as s/he keeps reading, and with this pool of knowledge arise a desire to express oneself based on what s/he knows. This is the fundamental first step to establishing expertise. No one can lie about what s/he doesn’t know and shouldn’t downplay what they truly know if they can be in a position to help others and get paid for it.

Second, the structure and length of the article must be determined before writing commences. I recommend a length of 410 words to beat the minimum limit for acceptable article submission. A classic set of criteria for structuring would be:

1. Describe a problem, challenge or scenario that needs to be fixed.
2. Describe the consequences if the problem remains ignored.
3. List down possible solutions to help fix the problem. Put them in point form.
4. Highlight the benefits of applying the solutions.
5. Present in a case study, a real or theoretical positive outcome when the solutions are applied.
6. Summarize the key theme of the article and re-emphasize the need to solve the problem. End it with a “call to action”.

Finishing a 410-word article is really short and you’ll surely find yourself surpassing this limit when you practice writing.

Another thing to bear in mind is the use of synonyms. As you research for your content, be alert for words which you can replace with another of the same meaning. This will help you beat duplication.

The most wonderful thing about rewriting content is that although your words have to be unique, the ideas behind them are not. You can research a wide range of PLR articles or other people’s articles and cut them up, add to them, combine them with other content, or go one step further and create an e-book or audio/video product only because you don’t feel ‘right’ with how they write…the sky really is the limit! Include your own personal opinions and experiences about the topic or explain in greater detail the theories or concepts that are only mentioned briefly in other articles. Coming up with a list of solutions in point form is as easy as deriving one tip you can summarize in a single statement from each and every article you research. The more things you can think of, the more unique your resulting product will be.

Rewriting articles is not difficult at all. It’s not like I’m asking you to “start from scratch”. Once you get past the initial phase and develop a habit and a personal taste for expressing yourself in a professional way, article writing can be a very enjoyable activity. You can do it fast and never have a shortage of unique content again!

Private Label Rights articles are a great compromise between writing your own articles and publishing someone else’s articles. You can just write your name on the articles and you have content for your blog or website. You can even get articles for free or else very cheaply.

Of course there is a common problem that many people find with PLR articles: Duplicate Content.

Hundreds if not thousands of people will have the same articles that you have; only they will put their name on it. This means that many other people will see your articles and think of them as junk because your content is not unique and not original. This means that your PLR articles are useless, so you cannot use them for content on your website or blog.

But there is a way to solve this. Instead of just taking the PLR articles as they are and just posting them on your website or blog, you obviously need to alter them in some way so that they are unique and truly are your own content.

The easiest way to change them is known as “spinning” them. This means taking the article and changing the wording and some of the structure so that it is completely unique. Yes, it will have the exact same message as the original article, but it will be unique in the fact that it is worded differently than the thousands of other articles on the internet from the people who obtained the same article as you did.

This means that you will now have unique articles that you can post on your blog or website and people will see them and not view them as duplicate content.

Another thing you can do is while you are spinning your article you can remove parts that you do not agree with and add your own ideas into the article, making it even more unique.

I personally use an article spinner to spin my articles for me so I can save even more time, and you can use them as well. There are some free ones that you can find, although I have found them to be generally more difficult to use and not as effective.

But essentially you just need to remember that if you are using PLR content that you need to alter it so that it is not the same as thousands of others on the internet and you will not have the problem of duplicate content like many other people run into.
