Article directories are made for PLR content
Many people think when they are looking to build up links to their site that they have to write every article by hand and it needs to be original. With somewhere like Qondio, Ezine Articles, or Associated Content to name a few, the answer is 100% yes, those are premier properties to publish on and require totally new articles written by you. Something that is often not covered by most is the huge selection of PLR written articles available to jump start the writing process. The abbreviation PLR stands for private label rights, and the rights allow you to rewrite or republish them as you need to.
Sources of PLR are all over the internet – some you can buy, some you can download, and some are given away as a bonus for other software you might purchase. Most of these PLR articles will not really be of any use to publish as is. They may have been utilized by thousands of other writers looking to get links to their site. Occasionally you get lucky and they have never been used. The ones that have very little use or never been used are great for rewriting andsubmission to an article directory.
What I usually do is to take the 2 sentences of the article and one at a time, paste them into Google and search, with quotes around the sentence so it has to be an exact match. If nothing comes up – Bingo! you now have an article that can be used with no re-writing should you choose as the search engine does not have a record of its use. If a bunch of entries come up, then you have a bit of rewriting to do. If a lot of results come on the screen, pass on that article and find another. I usually rewrite sentence by sentence so I have a totally new article, but it closely resembles the old article in topic and flow. Even if you have to rewrite, its way faster most of the time than creating an entirely new article, unless you happen to be an expert on the topic of the article. If that was the result, most people would have no need for using PLR articles.
Where the use of PLR articles is most handy, is in the creation of niche sites, such as fly fishing, composting, glass blowing or other topic which interests you, but you are by no means an expert or may know nothing about. Another writer has allowed you a jump ahead with an article that you can then put your links into and publish, whether it needs rewriting or not. I usually publish these types of articles to Article Friendly article directory sites, there are thousands of them out there. Article Friendly is a widely distributed article directory script that many people have purchased to run an article directory on their websites, they are easy to open an account at, and when you publish its live most of the time right away.
You will want to have a variety of account names and many different AF sites using various emails so that your publication of articles is mixed up and it does not look like the same person is publishing all the same articles on the same general topic. It takes a bit of time in the beginning to get the accounts set up, but there are tools that can help automate the process. That is beyond the scope of this article, but I will write about that soon.
