Private Label Rights Products – What about Duplicate Content Issues?
Private Label Rights Products are becoming extremely popular because they offer convenience and speed without the heavy work. You can grab what others have written and turn it into your own or use it as is, as long as you follow the User License Agreement.
This means you can buy PLR products, load up a web site or auto responder, and have your business up and running in no time.
One common question often asked is, “What about duplicate content?”
If you’re not familiar with this term, basically it’s something that can cause problems for you as far as Google is concerned. Google and other search engines look for original content. If you publish what others already did, you risk being ignored by the SEs.
Now, duplicate content doesn’t mean the information isn’t the same. Duplicate content just means it’s written word for word – copied and used elsewhere.
For this very important reason, you must take some time to rewrite, or have rewritten, any PLR that you want to use on a web site, either your own, someone’s blog or an article directory. In fact, many article directories will reject Private Label Rights material. They discover that it’s duplicate content by running it through something like Copyscape and other free online services that let you compare your work with that of others.
Remember, very little is truly unique. Only the formatting, design and wording is original.
The only times you do not have to worry about duplicate content is if you are using the material in your auto responder, in a newsletter, or in book, report, video or audio format.
That’s where PLR packages like the ones you will find on www.plrproductsmonthly.com are great. Because they are books and reports, Google will not know you are not the only marketer using the material. You can break the content down into individual articles or turn them into mini-courses or sell the product as is and Google will be none the wiser.
There is a lot you can do with Private Label Rights products which I will be discussing over time, so stay tuned!
