    I am a writer and I want to know how can I make money from PLR. I search on the internet about PLR and get answer. Still I am confused about its procedure. Can anybody tell me that is it a writing process? How I can start writing PLR articles.

    However, I have a blog (www.fitnessfizz.com) and I regularly post article in here. Now I am taking interest in PLR articles and want to know more about this.

    Thanks to all

    The quickest way to make money from PLR (Private Label Rights) is to create a website then try and sell it on Flippa.

    The 'traditional' way is to spin it, and try to use it to either generate free traffic (from an 'autoblog', for example) or to then sell on to unsuspecting newbies.

    It doesn't work anymore, because spinning is dead now, and isn't coming back.

    I suppose you could use a PLR article as a starting point for writing something new from scratch, although you'd probably still have the problem of Google's duplicate content filters picking up the similarities in the new article's overall structure.

    [PassGoSEO] "The 'traditional' way is to spin it, and try to use it to either generate free traffic (from an 'autoblog', for example) or to then sell on to unsuspecting newbies."

    Unsuspecting newbies are part of the foodchain. God in his infinite wisdom created them to feed the rest of us. If a few are killed off then you need not worry, as they seem to reproduce rather quickly.:)

    PLR stands for Private Label Rights.

    It means that you write articles and can sell it to people who will label it as their article and publish it on their website. That way, they earn from ads and you earn by selling them the articles.

    These articles need to be unique and not duplicate.

    Refers to Private Label Rights articles. Unlike articles written by a ghostwriter (who writes a unique article for one purchaser), PLR articles are written and made available for several purchasers to buy and use.

    These articles can then be used as-is or edited as the purchasers desire - within the guidelines of the PLR company the articles were purchased from. Attribution to the original author is not required and that is why they are attractive to online business owners.

    You don't want to touch PLR articles anymore imo. They've been so overdone and rewritten, article spinned etc. Yes PLR articles are free and there are millions of them to use but at this point it's penny pinching through bad content.

    This is spot on.

    As you are a writer you should be able to create content easy enough though. Just make it topical and current.

    The other part of of the process is getting people to buy your PLR articles. One place you might try to do that is the Warrior Forum. http://www.warriorforum.com. It's worth doing some research there and see what PLR others are offering. It's worth taking note of the sales letters people come up with too as they make the difference between lots of sales and no sales. Some people give away a few copies first in exchange for reviews. This is a good idea as you can use the quotes in your sales pitch.

    Another thing you might consider is buying some PLR products (ebooks, software, etc) from places like I Need PLR http://www.ineedplr.com and bundle your articles with them then sell them as a unique product or as a bonus to your articles.

    Depends on how you want to use PLR. For instance, you could write PLR to sell to others. But then you would want to ensure that you offer the highest quality writing as well as a popular niche. Or, you could use PLR for your blog. Not really the best idea as it's copied content and most likely available on other blogs. When you get PLR you need to rewrite thoroughly. Though as suggested, you could always use PLR as quick content for a blog you intend to resell. Most newcomers will not know they are dealing with PLR content on the site.

    PLR stands for PURE LITERARY RUBBISH, or that is what it should stand for, write your own or get it written for you, but make sure it is your OWN and not everyone else's too.
