Instead of generating PLR Articles, you can take PLR articles in your niche, rewrite or make them unique, add your links and sell them. In this way, you can also save your time. Generating PLR articles is also great, but I use the former option !
Probably don't ask for more, but I always believe you get what you pay for. I sell my packages for around $5 an article, but I make sure they hit at least 400 words. Some folks will write for $2 to $3 an article, but you get 250 words. In my opinion, more is best because it doesn't look like you're keyword stuffing, which of course is bad. Then again, maybe I'm thinking that way because I'm trying to market articles, though I don't believe I'm being quite that selfish. lol
The thing is it's hard to decide how to price almost anything. For instance, I'm selling my stuff as a package, but I'm selling 30 packages. If I can sell that many, then it's not such a bad price overall.
You would be surprised hehe. Luckily, people ALWAYS get what they pay for, so eventually they go for more professional work (that's always more costly).
PLR articles are sold over and over again on internet therefore having very low rates and of cause they don't pass CS unless you rewrite them heavily
