By far the best source of PLR material (in my opinion) is PLRpro run by Australians Daniel Turner and Marc Lindsay.

But later today (30th June) they’re closing their doors to new members for 3 months and when they reopen the price will double.

If you get in today though, you’ll be "grandfathered" in and you will get the new stuff at the current low price.

BTW, during the shutdown, current members and people who join today, will still get the regular as clockwork great content.

Plus get all the new stuff when it’s ready.

The private label rights content that Daniel and Marc provide is extremely good value, and they’ve always worked very hard to keep their members happy. And the quality is the best private label writing I’ve ever seen…the Rolls Royce of PLR

Others agree. In fact, Daniel says that the main reason members leave is they just don’t have time to use all the content that PLRPro provides.

So that’s mainly what the revamp is about. Daniel’s shown me what they’ve got planned, and I can see it’s mainly about automating their services by integrating site building tools (including Wordpress) into the system, and traffic generation systems.

Among the new benefits and tools are:

# All content is going to be silo and LSI ready to build perfectly structured sites. (meaning the articles will rank higher in the search engines.

# The overall quality of the content will (somehow) be increased

# There will be a "central bank" of content that you’ll be able  to draw on for reviews on various products, and you’ll be able to automatically pre-fill your affiliate ids into that content (instant affiliate sites)

# You’ll have an option to create a spun version of all content on the fly.

# You’ll have an option to easily rewrite each article yourself from within the system and it will give you important data such as how unique the article has become after your changes.

There will also be an integrated site management system. (as an owner of a lot of sites I know how important this part is. It’s a real drag to manually maintain dozens or hundreds of sites).

With the site building software that will come as part of the new setup you’ll be able to:

# choose between Wordpress and HTML platforms to create your your sites (you can still use the content on your existing sites or sites you build manually of course)

# there will be a "bank" of over 100 templates for each style.

# using drag and drop style features you’ll be able to do things like add Amazon modules, and YouTube videos, etc. (a bit like the way you do it in Squidoo)

And more. But if I keep writing about it you’ll never get there before the deadline which is creeping ever closer. Oh, quick, I forgot to mention the promotion and traffic driving capabilities.

# if you choose to you’ll be able to plug into the PLRpro blog network (which will be significantly beefed up and enhanced)

# use the Web 2.0 bookmarking services - Daniel says nothing out there currently can match the system they have.

# use the RSS Bookmarking and Blog & Ping tools.

# have a choice of using the article distribution service throughout similar sites in the network.

# and you can also choose to integrate with current traffic systems like Traffic Kahuna and a few others.

Enough?  I think so

It’s going to be a knockout. I’ve been using their services for years now and can’t wait to get my hands on the new setup.

It’s only when you can’t work for a while that the importance of having a number of recurring revenue streams really hit home.

Even though I’ve done hardly been able to do anything since April my earnings have hardly faltered. This is because:

a) many of the affiliate programs I concentrate on promoting are those which offer recurring income. Membership sites are probably the first thing that popped into your head, but there are many other affiliate programs which offer recurring payouts.

Getting people to sign up for web hosting, where they might stay for many years and you get a monthly or annual cut, is an obvious one. Paid newsletter subscriptions is another. Less obvious are products like food supplements, eczema treatments, genital wart or hemorrhoid creams where people keep buying the product month after month.

——– side note ———–

An offline idea that might work is to cut a deal with a local gymnasium or health club that doesn’t have a site and ’sell’ monthly or annual memberships on their behalf by creating a locally oriented fitness site that heavily promotes their services. Or by developing a web presence promoting the gym where people are made an introductory offer via a discount
coupon which is tagged to you. If the gym later reneges on the deal you simply cut a similar deal with one of their competitors and switch your traffic over to your new partner.

In fact, if you put some thought into this you can probably do a similar thing for lots of different businesses.

To get back to what I was saying about recurring, or residual, earnings, when I quit my job years ago, to work online full-time, I took out medical insurance which would pay me around $1k a week if I got sick. But I’ve never been able to make a claim on it because of all the residual earnings pouring in from my web sites.

A couple of days ago I took some time out to look back through years of banking and accounting records. And I can plainly see shifts in where the earnings come from. In the first few years they came from a mix of mini sites and this ezine. Apart from recommending useful books and software here, I also sold advertising, running as many as a dozen ads in each issue.

Later I expanded a few of my most successful mini sites, and later still got into the Adsense site building craze and devoted most of my time to churning out sites. This worked spectacularly for a couple of years before Google turned the screws.

And now, over the past few years, the bulk of my earnings come from a select number of high quality sites that mainly use a blend of rewritten private label articles (PLR) and rewritten press releases.

Whether you rewrite a private label article or go the slow way and write your own from scratch, you should always come up with a snappy, interesting title.

It’s the first thing that people see, and it either grabs their attention or it doesn’t which means they might move on without even taking a look at the content.

So here’s a big tip. What you should do is try and write article or blog post titles like the stuff on the covers of Cosmopolitan and Reader’s Digest and other magazines with huge sales.

Reader’s Digest cover

Cosmopolitan cover

Notice how both these magazines, Cosmo and Readers Digest, use a lot of numbers in their teasers.

"41 Things doctors Never Tell You."

"25 Great Places to Visit for Free"

"No Hassle Flying: 18 Insider Tips"

"7 New Ways To Be Happy"

"50 Things That’ll Make Him Worship You"

They use them because they work, and a LOT of work goes into creating them. They’re tested and tweaked to get them perfect to attract people to buy/to read the magazine. So if they work on mags they’ll work online too.

So stand in a magazine store and make a note of some of them, or you can see them online at places like

Magazine http://magazine.com/

and Magazine City http://www.ccgdata.com/index.html

Learn from them…and also just adapt one to suit your article or blog post.

Not long after I fell off the ladder, I tried to drag myself out of bed long enough to recommend a new book of inspiring Internet success stories.

But I never managed it.

If I could have written about just one product from everything released in the past eight or nine weeks it would have been this one.

Way back in 2004, I named "Success Alert Volume 1" as my book of the year. And this one carries on where the other left off, with nine in-depth interviews with entrepreneurs making huge sums on the Internet. You don’t just read their success  stories though. These people give you a lot of step by step info on exactly how they do it.

I also like the way that John provides you a neat summary of the most relevant facts after each chapter, making sure that you don’t miss any of the valuable tips.

Highly Recommended: "Success Alert 2 - Conversations with MORE Successful Internet Entrepreneurs " by John Evans.

More on this book some other time, but that’s it for today.
