Using PLR content can save you time and provide content needed to grow your business. Private Label Rights content can be used for a variety of purposes–POD items, blog posts, courses, lead magnets, social media images, workbooks, affirmation cards and saves you a lot of time. You can even get video courses as PLR to resell. You only have to review some popular PLR providers to see the variety of options available.
What is PLR Content?
PLR stands for Private Label Rights material that allows business owners or course creators to purchase, modify, and use it as their own. This content often includes articles, e-books, videos, graphics, and social media posts. The flexibility and convenience offered by PLR providers make it an attractive option for businesses looking to streamline their content creation efforts.
I love PLR and I hoard a lot of it too. I have 2 back up drives full and the bad habit of downloading it again because it is easier to find online than to look in my stash. But I use it as well. I have created products for my ETSY shop, used it to make planners and journals, used articles to create checklists and used the social media posts.
1. Selecting High-Quality PLR Content
To start effectively utilizing your purchased content, it’s crucial to choose high-quality content that aligns with your business goals and audience preferences. Then you tweak the pack and insert your own stories and create a type of PLR that has your own voice. Here’s how you can identify premium PLR content:
Reputation and Reviews: Conduct thorough research to find reputable PLR providers with positive customer reviews and testimonials. You want high quality from the best PLR sites. And if you can find options that offer a master resell rights as well, it is a bonus. These packs are usually a bit higher priced, but the benefit is that it is limited to fewer buyers.
Expertise and Authority: Look for content created by industry experts or authoritative figures. This ensures that the material you use is well-researched and reliable.
Customizability: Opt for PLR content that allows you to make substantial modifications and adapt it to suit your brand’s unique voice and style.
I have a few favorites, and you probably do as well. I love PASSION FOR PLR because their content packs include a questions, prompts and a workbook as well as articles and social media posts. The POWER OF MICRO HABITS is one I love. The additional prompts make it easy to create a companion journal as a content upgrade to a blog post or challenge. Those additional prompts are a quick way to create new content and products.
I also love PIGGY MAKES BANK. Don’t they have just about everything? Just when I think I have seen it all from them, they come up with new ideas to dazzle me. And I love that you can get so many of their packs with a 30 day challenge as well.
And EKITHUB has a all inclusive pack with lots of part to it. You can get journals, planners, coloring pages, posters as well as the social media posts. There is such a variety of content, that you could take one pack and repurpose it into about 100 different pieces. That will keep you busy.
Tools for Motivation is another vendor that I rely on for some content. In many of their packs you can get audio files, presentations and video files, making it easy to add multi-media content to your blog posts or ebooks. Want to add some audio to a course? They will help you achieve that goal.
2. Tailoring PLR Content for Your Brand
To maximize the impact of your chosen content, it’s essential to tailor it specifically to your brand identity and target audience. First of all, change the title. Consider that popular PLR sellers could easily sell 200-300 of each pack and maybe more.
Changing the cover or graphics is also a great idea. I have seen a popular journal on ETSY that did not change anything and they range in price from $1 to $7. By just making a few changes, you will not have to complete on price. So you want yours to be different.
I also like to mix and match the interior pages, add dividers or change out the fonts. Seems like a lot of work, but if you upload your file into Canva, you can make those changes double quick. Follow these steps to ensure your content resonates with your readers:
Content Editing: Thoroughly review and edit the PLR to reflect your brand’s tone, values, and messaging. Personalize it by incorporating your own experiences, anecdotes, and examples. Or you can combine several PLR packs together or have a series of articles, so think outside the box here for you specific needs.
Add your own stories and examples. Add some humor if appropriate (I am told my humor is sometimes not appropriate, so I am working on it, lol). Rewrite what you need to make it yours. If you are stuck, copy a few sentences into ChatGPT and ask Chat to rewrite in a different tone. Of course, you will need to read and perhaps revise but it’s a great way to get past that stuck phase.
Keyword Optimization: Identify relevant keywords related to your business niche and strategically incorporate them into the content. This helps improve search engine visibility and attracts organic traffic. Just because a PLR pack was using certain keywords, you can adjust and revise it.
Structuring and Formatting: Organize into logical sections with subheadings, bullet points, and numbered lists. This improves readability and enhances the user experience. I am bad at rewriting because I typically have run on sentences. and I speak just like that. I keep talking without taking a breath. But your readers will want to breathe and their eyes need breaks.
3. Adding Value and Uniqueness
While PLR material provides a foundation, it’s vital to add value and uniqueness to differentiate yourself from competitors. Here are some techniques to consider:
Supplement with Original Content: Enhance the PLR content by adding your unique insights, tips, and perspectives as well as some of your own content. This establishes you as an authority and provides additional value to your audience.
Incorporate Visuals: Humans are visual beings, so augment the content with relevant images, infographics, and diagrams to enhance comprehension and engagement. For instance, a great way to repurpose some of the content is to pick the key points and create a visual or how to of an effective PLR strategy. Infographic anyone?
PLR is the perfect starter to creating Infographics. Sometimes they have checklists or maybe just bulleted lists which are great to change into an Infographic. See the blog post: CREATING AN INFOGRAPHIC and use a Canva template to make it even easier.
4. Promoting and Sharing Strategically
To outrank your competitors, you must actively promote and share your content. Not necessarily by just repeating the content but offer the content in different ways so it becomes unique. People like to consume fresh content. Consider the following methods:
Social Media: Share snippets or excerpts of your content on social media platforms to generate interest and drive traffic to your website. Most PLR packs come with social media posts. So you can use them, or take them and add to your content to create an EBook with appropriate images. Pull key points from a bulleted list for social media.
Note: I do not use the images / graphics from most PLR packs for the same reason I switch out the covers. But you can create wonderful images with AI if you are stuck for ideas. Just pop in a prompt and create background images and put your content on top. Be unique.
Guest Blogging: Leverage your content by repurposing it into insightful guest blog posts for authoritative websites. This expands your reach and establishes backlinks to your site, boosting your search rankings.
Email Marketing: Utilize the content in newsletters and email campaigns to engage your existing audience and attract new subscribers. Provide valuable content that encourages readers to visit your website.
This is really a great use for those 30 day challenges from Piggy Makes Bank. You can break down the 30 days of posts into 3 months of email tips. Use those tips on social media as well.
5. Analyzing and Optimizing
To continuously improve your search rankings, it’s crucial to analyze and optimize your PLR content. Here’s how you can do it effectively:
Monitor Traffic and Metrics: Utilize tools like Google Analytics to track website traffic, bounce rates, and user behavior. Identify the performance of your PLR content and make data-driven decisions for optimization.
Keyword Research: Regularly research and update your targeted keywords to align with the latest trends and search queries. Optimize your PLR content accordingly to maintain relevance and visibility.
6. Engaging and Interacting with Your Audience
Building a loyal audience requires active engagement and interaction. Consider these strategies:
Comments and Feedback: Encourage readers to leave comments and provide feedback on your PLR content. Respond to their queries, acknowledge their opinions, and foster a sense of community.
Forums and Groups: Participate in relevant online forums and communities to share your expertise and establish your brand as a trusted resource. Include links to your PLR content when appropriate.
7. Measuring Success and Adapting
Regularly evaluate the success of your PLR content strategy and adapt accordingly. Key steps to consider include:
Performance Tracking: Continuously monitor your search rankings, website traffic, and engagement metrics to gauge the effectiveness of your PLR content.
A/B Testing: Experiment with different versions of your PLR content, headlines, and call-to-action statements to determine what resonates best with your audience.
By following these strategies, you can optimize your PLR content to outrank your competitors and establish your brand as an industry leader. Remember, consistency and quality are key to maintaining your search rankings and driving long-term success.
