Lots of people shy away from PLR content for their websites. While I do agree that PLR articles can cause you some issues, its also a great way to utilize your time most effectively. I very rarely use private label articles on this blog, but I do use it a lot on other sites with success. Where a lot of people fail with PLR content is they are lazy. PLR articles by their very nature can be rewritten. This is the step that most people fail to do. PLR is meant to be a helper for creating content, not to be an all out method of not writing.

At the minimum you need to rewrite at least 25% of the article and I would say this number should be closer to 50% in order for you to receive the best result. There are some methods you can use to rewrite an article in a minimum of time.

1. Rewrite the title — This is crucial and probably the most important part of rewriting. Choose a title that contains your keywords, but don’t accept the title as it is in the PLR article.
2. If the article does not have  a summary paragraph then write one from scratch. This does not need to be very long. Just summarize the article in three to four sentences. Read the article and make your summary consistent with the article. One thing to keep in mind is once you go through the rest of the article you may need to revisit this summary and modify it based on what is changed through the rest of the process. You can do this part later, but I find that writing my summary first helps me with the rest of the process.
3. Once you understand the article, then start rewriting paragraphs one at a time. Rewriting may include removing redundant content or just rewording sentences. The way I do this is to look at the paragraph and totally rewrite it above or below the current paragraph. One I’m through I just delete the original paragraph and move on to each paragraph.
4. Once the paragraphs are modified I will write a conclusion which is pretty much a repeat of the summary with minor changes.

If you have done these things then PLR content can be a great method for increasing the content you have available for earning revenue on your site in the shortest and most economical method. Most PLR packages can be bought for only a few dollars and if you hang out in Internet Marketing forums such as DigitalPoint or the Warriors then you can find a lot of package for free. Keep in mind that the free packages you may find may need a little more rewriting before you realize the true potential. Good luck with your PLR rewriting efforts.
