subject: Importance Of Having Private Label Rights Articles For Marketing [print this page] Private label rights (PLR) articles are found to be very helpful for those who are building niche websites. But before you invest in them, you should understand the different restrictions connected with the bundle you are purchasing. You should also understand that for the most part, these articles are not written well and will require some amount of work before you can really use it. Here are some of the common phrases that are found in PLR terms with regards to restrictions:
Private Label Rights No Restrictions
This means that you can use the articles in any manner that you elect to. You may be able to post them to article directories (that don't have limitations about posting them), you can make eBooks from them or you can place them in your blog as is. These articles are free from any need to disclose who the original author is or to disclose that you are not the author.
Downside:
Before you use this type of an article it is a good idea to run it through not just a good spelling and grammar checker but also through a plagiarism checker. For example, one article from a batch of PLR's can return upwards of 300 duplicate content flags in programs like Dustball. If a non-premium program can pick up this many duplicates, this means the content has been used repeatedly on blogs and websites. Even though the "Google Dupe Content" penalty has not been proven by Google themselves, it is still bad business practice to place these articles into your site without alteration.
Other Restrictions
Posting the PLR content at Article Directories - This means that the seller states clearly that the articles cannot be used on sites which are deemed as article directories where the poster would use this content as if it were their own. Even if your PLR package does not have this restriction, you may still want to refer to the original content provider at the end of the article - it's a matter of common sense.
Using it as website content - Having to use the contents of a PLR package may seem simple and cost effective way to create your website content. Before you do this, make sure that the restriction is not in the package. You may want to acknowledge the seller with the content when you post it to your site if it not restricted in this manner.
Breaking it up into blog posts - Some Private Label rights packages prohibit you from breaking their content into smaller pieces and using them to populate a blog. Before you decide to use private label rights articles as individual blog posts, read over the terms of the package you purchased.
There are several forms of restrictions that can be placed in PLR packages. Make sure that you understand the limitations of any private label rights articles before purchasing them. It is all useless if you buy a package and then discover afterwards that the package needs major rewriting. When purchasing a package that has too many limitations, you will only suffer and will not be experiencing real benefit from private label rights article packages.
