When you purchase the rights to some PLR articles, you buy the right to claim the articles as your own, publish them under your name, modify them, add to them, etc.

There are several things to consider when considering purchasing PLR articles. Here is a quick summary.

The Good
Using PLR Content on your website or blog allows you to immediately create content. No need to wait for inspiration, write and edit it, nothing. You will have a content-rich website right way. You can use PLR articles for content on your website or blog, you can condense it in an eBook you can sell for profit, or you can use the content as part of a newsletter or autoresponder series.

The Bad
The main drawback to using PLR content is its wide distribution. Google and other major search engines frown upon duplicate content, and having a website full of information found on other websites as well is likely to hurt your ranking potential. Always be careful when purchasing PLR content to make sure that the product distribution is either limited, or that the offer contains an enormous amount of content, so it’s less likely many people will be using the same PLR articles.

The Ugly
If you want to use PLR articles as content for your website, blog, newsletter, or anything else, you will need to exercise common sense. Open one of the articles, select and copy part of a sentence – at least 5-10 words, and search Google using those words in brackets (‘[]’). Google will show you who else is using the same article, and you can decide for yourself if a PLR article already has too much distribution.

More than likely, you will have to rewrite or at least rearrange all the PLR articles you use, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. Remember, you want to offer something significant and unique to the visitors to your website, and adding a little bit of work to the PLR articles you publish certainly qualifies as such.

Google will reward your rewriting efforts with greater rankings, which should lead to increased traffic and profits.

PLR Articles and Content are a great way to quickly and inexpensively add content to your website or blog. With just a little bit of work, you can transform common text into interesting articles that will entice your readers to visit again and again.
