Rewriting PLR Ebooks And PLR Articles: 6 Money-making Tricks Of The Trade On How To Do It
PLR material (Private Label Rights) may be a very powerful resource for anyone trying to get ahead in the online marketing world. Not only can PLR e-books and PLR articles be picked up for a comparatively small price; these products also are advantageous because most of the research and writing has already been done for you.
But PLR articles and e-books may be unsafe. For many online businesses are acquainted with the value of PLR content and are exploiting it on a regular basis. In real figures, the same PLR articles and ebooks may have been sold to hundreds or even thousands of customers, who then may have posted the material on their websites, with or without changing it extensively.
How to succeed with PLR material
The key to making money with PLR articles and PLR ebooks is then the following: you must plan to rewrite every PLR article and ebook so that it ends up being truly different. If you follow that rule, you will minimize the probability of being penalized by the search engines. Having unique content will at all times be a plus as seen from the viewpoint of the search engine robots.
Another reason is, of course, the visitors: who likes to visit a new site and read the exact same content as on one of the rival sites? So even if the search engine robots very well might have overlooked a duplicate or near-duplicate article or ebook, your visitor may perhaps not be quite as accepting. To serve your customers well, adequately rewritten articles and ebooks are simply a requirement.
Yet another motivation for rewriting may be this: no one thinks just like you. So you may discover that the PLR ebook or article] that you just picked up didn’t cover all the facts that you would have liked it to cover. Or maybe the writing style was not what you would have anticipated? Or maybe there were some incorrect “facts” in it? Whatever the case may be, you should plan for some serious editing of the PLR ebook or article to make it better suit the needs of you and your customers.
Here, then, are a few ideas on how to modify your PLR article or PLR ebook so that it will serve you and your customers better:
Change the title
Sometimes Private Label Rights materials have ill-chosen titles. Therefore, you may wish to change it into a title that is more focused. For good search engine optimization (SEO), you must be very careful to choose the exact title.
Note, however, that even though the PLR title is NOT badly chosen, you may still have to adjust it, to make it really unique. In any case, you might want to play around with Google’s free keyword tool to see which title might be most appropriate.
Rearrange paragraphs
One way to “rewrite” a PLR article or ebook is merely to rearrange the paragraphs in the document. By putting one paragraph before another, the general flow of the article (or ebook) may become considerably improved. And the advantage of this method is that there is no actual typing involved!
Remove paragraphs
Another approach to “rewrite” a PLR article or ebook would be to simply delete one or several paragraphs. On occasion (especially in low-quality PLR material) there might be a lot of fluff that simply isn’t advisable to keep, if one is planning for a high-quality ebook or article.
Reword paragraphs
This is a method by which you essentially retain the same central ideas in the paragraph, but you express them in a different way. Instead of going with the text “PLR articles are articles that have Private Label Rights”, you might do a rewrite like this: “PLR texts are electronic texts that grant the owner Private Label Rights.”
Make paragraphs more extensive
Although the further development of a paragraph unquestionably is a way to rewrite a paragraph (and thus may potentially be a part of the previous point), I nevertheless wish to keep this idea as a point by itself. It is by this method that you can make your PLR article or ebook even more unique, and substantially more of use to your audience.
By expanding an article I mean expanding its particular content. You might, for example, add new points, new reasons, new arguments, new questions, or new data.
Such an expansion may now and then result in quite long paragraphs, so you might want to consider splitting up the longer paragraphs into several shorter ones. This is only a plus, for it makes your article or ebook even less of a duplicate of the original PLR material.
Attach Applicable Links
Some PLR content packs include helpful links and keywords that were used to create the content. In some cases you may want to use those links in your articles and ebooks. In other cases you may decide to use your own product links or your own affiliate links to make more money.
Be very cautious, however, with relevance. Do not include links that are not related to the main text. For instance, in an article on how to cook salmon, don’t incorporate an affiliate link to your “solar power” product or to some other article on, say, your expertise as a cat trainer. Be relevant!
Final remarks
It is true that PLR e-books and articles may increase your online revenue if done properly. An important step toward success is to be very cautious to rewrite the articles and ebooks in such a way that they end up being not only unique but also valuable to your potential customers.
Adding other items to your article or ebook, such as graphics and videos, may make your audience even more happy. So give your content the individual touch your readers might be searching for, and then wait for conversions!
