Keen users of Private Label Rights content are delighted to see
more and more PLR sites appearing. The proliferation of such sites
has, however, given rise to a new problem - the overall quality of
the articles users pay for. Good (and reliable) writers are snapped
up fast and given ongoing work. Regrettably, some PLR site owners
seem to be only concerned with getting a batch of articles uploaded
no matter what the quality.
Competition, as we all know, is a GOOD thing. Quite a number of PLR
users are now making a practice of signing up to check out the
quality of what's on offer in a new site. If they like it, they
stay. If they don't - they vote with their feet, or more
appropriately, with the 'cancel this subscription' option at
PayPal.)
Your Rights as a PLR Site Subscriber
Don't feel that you have to accept the articles you get no matter
what the quality. You are entitled to get articles and/or ebooks
that have been proofread and edited to correct grammar and spelling.
It is the responsibility of the PLR site owner to check that the
articles are of an acceptable standard (or to hire someone to do
this for them).
PLR users expect to have to tweak and change an article to create
unique website content. They should not, however, have to edit every
article. We all expect an error to creep in here and there - but an
entire batch of articles written by someone whose language is quite
obviously NOT English is not acceptable. Nobody wants to have to
copy-edit every one of 20 articles before turning them into an
e-book!
What You Can Do If You Are Not
Satisfied With the Quality of PLR Content
The first and most obvious option is to cancel your subscription.
However, you would be doing everyone a favor if you took the time to
contact the site owner to explain why you are not happy. Copy and
paste a few examples from the articles to demonstrate the errors.
In the past, PLR site owners have sent back batches of articles to
be corrected and/or rewritten when they are not satisfied with the
job. In extreme cases, they cut their losses and just hire a new
writer. Any PLR site owner who wants to build a profitable and
well-regarded business will be interested in working with you on
this - they don't want to lose customers!
If you can't get any satisfaction, move on. Sample the content of
several sites. Ask for recommendations from friends or other
publishers before you sign up. (Look for more than one satisfied
customer - never forget that some reviews are there solely to get
you to sign up via the reviewer's affiliate link.)
Find a Site to Satisfy Your Personal
Needs
Different sites offer different things. Some sites offer articles
and completed e-books, sales letters, and well-produced graphics.
Others provide only articles and a few bonus products.
If you are a competent graphic designer and know your way around
programs like Photoshop, graphics may not be important to you.
(Indeed, you may prefer to create your own graphics so your site
looks different to everyone else's.) Some sites offer 'extras' like
web hosting and autoresponders, plus ready-made AdSense sites. If
you are just starting out, you may like these all-in-one solutions.
Check out the following:
- What you get for your monthly subscription - articles, e-books,
e-courses, AdSense sites, graphics and sales letters.
- The quality of the articles that are immediately available -
general style, grammar, and spelling.
- Is the content original (not copied from some other source)?
- The regularity with which content is posted. (Check out the forum,
if there's one available. Are there constant complaints or queries
about when this month's content will be available?)
- The range of topics covered. You will find that some sites
specialize in one subject area, while others cover a broad range of
topics. Are you using enough of the monthly content to make it worth
your while? There's not much point in being able to access 200
articles a month if you can use only five of them.
It's common for PLR users to belong to more than one site. An
example: $200 a month spread between four to six sites comes to only
$2,400 a year - which is an excellent business investment compared
to the cost of hiring your own writer. Well-written,
carefully-edited PLR articles are usually well worth the monthly
fee. Take the time to assess the content of any PLR site - and stay
with the ones that believe in quality control.
