When you get your hands on some good quality PLR content, everyone’s first inclination is to slap your name on it and put it out into the cosmos. But I can assure you that you’ll get more mileage from your PLR if you modify it.
Here are some sure-fire simple ideas to turn your dull PLR into something a unique money-maker:
Change the Title and Author
This is the first thing you should do, and also the easiest thing you can do to your PLR to make it your own.
Add Your Own Affiliate Links
If you are modifying an eBook, you should put your affiliate links peppered throughout the book. If you don’t have any affiliate links, you can find hundreds of them at Commission Junction, Linkshare, or Amazon. You are sure to find a few products that relate to the topic of your content.
Add Pictures or Photos
Pictures help illustrate points for you. They are visually interesting, they break up the reading so you don’t have a big block of text, and they make the content look professional.
Tips Boxes Add Interest
A small “Tips” box highlights important points and breaks up the text. You can fill these with snippets like “Did You Know…”, “Hot Tip”, or Quotes.
Add Screenshots for “How-To” material
You can take screenshots easily by pressing the “Print Screen” button on your keyboard. This will take a snapshot of your current screen and it’s ready to be pasted into your favorite image editing program.
Screenshots are perfect for “How-To” articles or eBooks because it shows the reader every step on their screen through a process. Screenshots can also be used to show current search engine results, or website statistics.
Audio or Video adds Pizzazz
People love getting a multimedia experience. Audio or video, or both, add a professional touch to a plain PLR product. Maybe you have a recording of a teleconference you hosted or an interview of an expert. Or maybe you want to showcase a Camtasia video you made. You can even grab a YouTube video to put in your page.
Add a Resources List
This can be a simple list of helpful related websites at the end of the content. Here you can add links to your own websites, Affiliate websites, or Experts in the Industry. Everybody loves a good resource list.
