PLR stands for ‘private label rights’ which itself is short for private label rights articles. This still sounds like gobbledy-gook even to me and I have been conscious of the term for 12 years or so. It in essence refers to pieces, written by another, to which you own some rights.

What those rights are relies on the terms and conditions that you received or bought with the articles. Typically, you are allowed to use the articles ‘as are’ in your own literary work; rewrite them for use by yourself and sometimes you have ‘master resell rights’ too.

Master resell rights permit you to resell them as they stand and you can keep all the money. However, there are variations in this clause as well. Therefore, the best suggestion is to read the rights that you have obtained with your PLR very thoughtfully before you use it

Authors have learned to be very pro-active against copyright abuse and most Internet Service Providers will shut down the accounts of people suspected of abusing copyright. The right to use a piece is quite easily established, so it is simply not worth cheating and hoping no one will notice.

So, what could you use PLR for? Assuming that you have the authority to use it as it is and to rewrite it, there are several ways to earn money from your Private Label Rights pieces.

Supporting An Existing Business: if you have an on (or off) line business selling, say, gardening tools, but your web site gets scarcely any traffic because it ranks so low on Google, you can use PLR to improve its position.

You can publish the PLR as is into article databases and hope that they will be further distributed providing you with backlinks to your web site. Backlinks are the rocket fuel that sends websites to the top of the search engines for keywords and phrases.

Backlinks are in the last couple of lines of the article where you say a bit about yourself and or your business and give a URL where people can go for more info - a link back to your site. The more backlinks, in general, the higher you will be placed in Google

However, better than merely republishing that PLR, is rewriting it and then publishing it. By rewriting it, you have created a unique article, which Google prizes more highly. A backlink on a unique piece on a site on a topic related to your site is the best backlink of all.

Supporting A New Business: Let’s say you wished to strive to earn money from a number of web sites and you thought that ten could provide a helpful extra income, you could purchase ten packs of PLR and have your ten web sites up and running within a month. This is a very fast method of developing an online presence.

If you purchased a pack of 15 PLR, you could have a ten page web site with five supporting pages or a five page website with ten supporting pages up on the Internet each two-three days. If you had to do all the research and writing yourself, it would take months. The trick is to buy best-quality PLR.
