How To Effectively Use PLR Articles Without Rewriting Them First…

Let’s face it – most Internet marketers, niche marketers and affiliate marketers are lazy, which is one of the main reasons that PLR articles are so popular, right? And for those who aren’t lazy, PLR articles represent a real timesaving tool – after all, the research has been done for you so it’s just a matter of rewriting the articles and using them.

But still, as one of the original pioneers in online PLR and still one of the top PLR experts, I’m often asked what can be done with PLR articles without rewriting them. First, let’s look at what you can’t do – you can’t submit them to article directories and you can’t use them on blogs or websites as search engine bait. You can use them, but the search engines ignore them since they’ve already seen them on dozens of sites, and your credibility slips with anyone who has already read the same article, word-for-word, on another site.

But be that as it may, you can still use PLR articles without rewriting them to build optin lists and build traffic. Let’s look at optin list building – what’s the most effective way currently to build your list? With a free report behind a squeeze page, right? So compile the PLR articles into a PDF report, create an e-cover & squeeze page, put your bio and links at the end of the report and get it online. Use the social media, your blogs, article marketing – any of the standard traffic generation strategies to get prospects to your squeeze page so that they get the report and you get the marketing leads on your optin lists.

Next, let’s look at how to build traffic with PLR articles without rewriting them. Put on your headset or pull out your mic and make an MP3 file of the article. Now post it to your blog as a podcast along with a 1-paragraph summary of the information. Be sure you ping your blog post to the search engines and blog directories, and ping the podcast directories like iTunes, Podcast Alley and Podcast Ready with your podcast feed.

If you want to get the most from each PLR article, next open your video editing software and import your podcast as the audio track and stream the article into it in time to the voiceover. You now have a video you can upload to YouTube, Viddler and the like, and if you’re doing a number of them consider building a video blog and vlogging at Blogger or WordPress.org, again adding a single paragraph summary with each video you post.

Of course, if you want to get the most benefit from your PLR articles you WILL rewrite them in your own words and then use them as above too, plus post them to your blogs, use them on your sites and/or submit your totally new version to the article directories.
