Is PLR Legit?

If you've been wondering about Private Label Rights (PLR) products and whether they're legit, this is the article for you.

A lot of people like the idea of PLR. After all, who wouldn't want to get their hands on products they can use to quickly get content for their website or blog without having to write it themselves?

Or an eBook or course that they can sell as their own?

The short answer is: yes, PLR products are definitely legit.

But that doesn't mean that they're suitable for everyone.

Here's what you need to know about PLR products before deciding if they're right for you.

What Are PLR Products?

PLR stands for Private Label Rights. When you buy a PLR product, you're purchasing the right to use the content as if you were the author.

You can put your name on it and claim it as your own work, or you can edit it and change it however you like.

You can even break it up into smaller pieces and use them as blog posts or articles. The sky's the limit.

PLR products are so popular because they offer a lot of value for a very low price. You can usually get a high-quality PLR product for well under $100.

This is far less than you would pay a professional writer to create original content for you.

Another advantage of PLR products is that they save you a lot of time.

If you were to write an eBook on your own, it would take weeks or even months to do it.

With PLR, you can have it done in a matter of hours.

Types of PLR Products

There are all sorts of PLR products available on just about any topic you can imagine.

Some of the most popular types of PLR products include:

  • eBooks
  • Courses
  • Video scripts
  • Articles
  • Tutorials
  • Email courses
  • Templates

And this only scratches the surface. You can find PLR products on materials from weight loss to gardening to pet care.

How to Use PLR Products

Now that you know what PLR products are and why they're popular, let's talk about how you can use them.

Here are some ideas:

Use It As-Is

One of the simplest ways to use a PLR product is just to take it and use it as-is.

This is especially common with articles and email courses. Or just publish the content on your website or blog, or send out the emails to your list.

Of course, you'll want to put your own spin on it and make it unique to your brand.

But you don't have to do a lot of work to make it your own.

Edit It

Another option is to edit the PLR content to make it your own. This is a good idea if you want to add your voice and style to the content.

It's also a good idea if you want to change the focus of the content to fit your niche better.

For example, if you're a weight loss coach, you might edit an eBook on healthy eating to make it specific to weight loss.

Break It Up

If you have a longer PLR product, like an eBook or video course, you can break it up into smaller pieces and use it as blog posts, articles, or even social media posts.

This is a great way to get a lot of content without having to do all the work yourself.

Use It as a Lead Magnet

You can use your PLR products to grow your email list. Just offer the product as a freebie in exchange for an email address.

Doing this can quickly build up your list without spending much money on advertising.

PLR Rights

One thing that makes PLR legit is that these products come with terms and conditions that give the buyers certain rights.

These rights vary by the product, so you should always read the terms before you purchase.

But in general, here are the rights that you'll get with most PLR products:

  • Can be edited and modified completely (by removing, adding, or otherwise editing any elements) to suit your needs
  • Can put your name, URL, and logo on it
  • Can add affiliate links, product links, Adsense, and other ad codes
  • Can be used as web content, blogs, newsletters, social media, videos, or anywhere you publish content
  • Can be broken down into smaller articles
  • Can be added to an eCourse or autoresponder as content
  • Can be added to an eBook/PDF or viral report as content
  • You can add the content to a product that you plan to sell or give away for individual use
  • Can be offered as a free bonus
  • Can be packaged with other products
  • Can translate it into another language

Those are a lot of significant rights that give you a lot of flexibility with how you use your PLR products.

However, the flip side of what makes PLR legit is that PLR creators often place certain restrictions on how you can use their products.

For example, the license will likely not let you resell the rights to the original documents. PLR creators don't want you using their content to sell in your own PLR store.

In the same way, although you can edit the PLR you purchase, you won't be able to pass the ability to edit to your customers.

The file you give them has to be a final product.

The license also will restrict you from copywriting or trademarking their products.

This is because they are selling the same product to multiple people.

These are all very reasonable restrictions that protect both the PLR creator and you as the buyer, but make sure you read the terms before you purchase your PLR product.

Bottom Line: PLR is Legit

In the end, PLR is a very legitimate way to get content for your website or blog.

PLR articles are a good idea for those who want an inexpensive and straightforward solution.

After all, you can implement PLR in a myriad of ways, and you can get a lot of content very quickly.

Just make sure you read the PLR license before buying so you know what terms and conditions you need to follow to use the product.

But when you implement it properly, PLR can be a great asset to your business.
