Hi Peggy:

Excellent post and superior advice. A little addendum to suggestion #1.
Proofread for accuracy. Even the best of these EBooks come with spelling errors. Many are created by persons who do not understand some of the nuances of the English language and use words in some funny ways. Every now and then,they are just plain wrong.

I have two different PLR books from one highly respected source that illustrate this. In one, a pound of fat was said to equal 3500 calories. In another, Some North American history was quoted and it was way out in left field.

The point here is simply that when these tomes are released over your name, then you own the results – good, bad, or just plain silly. Your credibility as an authoritative source is on the line.

Great Post! But the main and the only quesiton is how to successful drive traffic to the new product? If you could do a post and give us some idea, that would be great!

Great post Peggy! Man how great is it to post for John?

This is the perfect timing for me as I start to use PLR. Thanks for taking the time and effort on this post. It has very pertinent information and easy to follow.

Obviously, John has the right person guest posting for him and I know it was not by accident.

Thanks for your great informative post Peggy. I am still learning the ins and outs of PLR and this summed it up quite nicely for me.

One thing I know for sure…if you are going to use PLR…you need to take the time to make it your own.

Thanks again,
Kathy

Thanks for the great post Peggy. Those tips really work especially if we sell ebooks, because I’ve seen lots of ebooks selling by several marketers, and no changes has been made at all. One thing I like about PLR ebooks is that you can sell it at a low cost, and then going big on back-end by showing your OTO after the sale, and put your links inside the ebook for affiliate commissions for you.

Regards,

Gary

Thanks Peggy for some great tips on what to avoid.

I’m guilty of a few of these mistakes, but I’m using a duplicate content checker when I change my important articles.

Wonderful information Peggy. These are great points and I have a difficult time determining my favorite, but I would have to say NOT changing anything within the material or not changing the sales page would have to be two of the biggies.

Keep up the good work and I look forward to seeing more of you out there.

Great post, Peggy. I particularly liked #4 and #6.

I get really disgusted when links go nowhere. It is beyond sloppy when someone puts in the effort to create something from PLR and publishes it without checking the links. It does nothing positive for the author’s credibility.

Your comments on #6 were also right on. A simple bulleted list of benefits does not prove anything to a skeptical or even a jaded new customer. Simple one or two sentences to back up each bulleted point are always more believable.

Keep up the good work. I learned a thing or two by your post.
