Ok, This might sound stupid, almost like a waste of time, in some respects, and I'm sure it is, but I want to know something, and I am going to throw myself out on a limb here. What the heck is Private Label Rights on an ebook? Like, is it: if I write an ebook, sell rights to it, then that means someone can re-write, or slap their name on it? Is that what it is? I kinda know what PLR articles are, but is that the same exact thing when it comes to ebooks or reports? Thanks for your time that could probably be spent better. HAHA. Bryan
Hi Bryan It's not stupid at all. I'm sure I've asked lots of stupid questions! Anyway - as far as I understand the answer is yes - someone else can attribute their own name to what you've written if you sell it with PLR rights, whether article or ebook. I was wondering myself if this comes under the same as 'ghostwriting'?
It is ghostwriting Lily. Instead, of the buyer going to a ghost writer for service the ghost writer now goes to the buyer with a prepared service. See what I mean?
Thanks uniqueasitis. I thought it probably was but just checking. Yes I see what you mean about the emphasis being more on the writer being proactive than the other way round.
Ok, so I am getting it, I suppose. Like, if I were to write an ebook, and already begin selling it as my own product, yet turned around and sold "rights" to someone else, they could then take the .rtf, .txt, or whatever file it is, and then begin selling it as if it was their creation?
PLR means the person can resell it, redo the whole ebooks , add to it , say he has written it. Resell Rights means you can just sell it and not make any edits or add to it.
