Tips For Using PLR

It seems everywhere I look these days, marketers are discussing the pros and cons of PLR or Private Label Rights. Since there is such a demand for content on websites, these ready made PLR articles are an easy way to fill a site with material. Or are they?

Personally, I've tried using PLR a few times without much to show for my time and effort. Many of the articles are so poorly written that I don't know where to start. Sure, there may be some jewels of content, but you sure need to dig for them!

Some marketers use their PLR material as research and idea generators, rather than ready made reading material. Others break the text up, add their own content as well, and use it as blog posts or in emails to their subscribers.

I'm on a quest to learn the best ways to use Private Label Rights, especially since I have enough on my hard drive to fill a library. I did find a free report, again by Melanie Bremner, titled "Using PLR For Business". Have a read and let me know how (and if) you've been using PLR for your online business. All tips appreciated!

Update: Since my rant about having to give my life away to download this free report, Melanie has changed her service. It's now a simple download with no questions asked. Thanks Mel.

Why An Internet Business Is Best For Me

I'm presenting a full day workshop at the local community centre in a few days. My topic - Start an Internet Home Business For Under $100. With more than a dozen ways to make money on the Internet, this will be a brief introduction of all the possibilities that exist online. There is no way I can cover too much in depth - but I hope to inspire people to try. Who am I to be telling anyone anything? Well, in the past few years I have learned more than I realize. I created a mindmap with six main topic areas - finding a niche, what you need to get started, monetizing, places to sell, getting traffic, and other possible options such as video and audio. Mindmapping was an easy way for me to see all the different things I could talk about. The hardest part is narrowing it down to what can be consumed in one day without causing information overload. In the past, when I've presented workshops on topics like eBay, the only negative comments I've ever had are always about too muc...

Opt-in Forms

I spent today creating opt-in forms for each of my blogs. Mind you, other than this one on blogger, which is so easy to install, I have no idea what to do next. My other blogs are in Wordpress and have to be copied into the HTML code. For a non-techie like me, that is a big deal. Update: With the newer versions of Wordpress and the use of widgets with most themes, adding an opt-in form is now as easy as on a Blogger blog. I went to Aweber and created my form, copied the code that's produced and pasted it into my HTML widget. And I even sound like a techie, don't I? Until next time, Carol

Youtube Videos - Are You Using Them?

Creating more Youtube videos is on my to-do list for this spring. But I think I need to take a lesson from my granddaughter's future husband and learn to use humor much more than I do. Here is a recent video he created to give you an idea of what I mean. Don't miss the surprise ending. Until next time, Carol
