What Is PLR and How It Can Help Your Internet Business

Creating new products and content to sell or give away in your Internet marketing business, is just good business sense. Your prospects and customers, have a never ending need and desire for new information.

The main job in your Internet marketing business is to provide the information and training that your customers are looking for, to solve their problems and needs.

Unfortunately for many of us we would have rather have our wisdom teeth extracted than to actually have to write that content ourselves.

The more content you add to your product library the more valuable your services are to your lifetime customers; there’s really no escaping the need to create new content. If you want to have a viable business on the Internet you need to constantly provide new and interesting content to your customers and subscribers plain and simple.

But it’s never really that simple is it? Regardless of whether you use freelance workers on websites like Elance.com and vWorker.com or create everything on your own, content creation takes valuable time and money. These are hard to come by resources for many small home Internet marketing entrepreneurs.

This market is too fast paced for you to release content slowly, if you want to keep your Internet business profitable, you need constant content, and creating content on your own takes a lot of time and money.

One of the biggest time and money savers is you will ever find in your Internet marketing business PLR content (Private Label Rights).

You’ve probably already heard about it and may have used it before.

PLR content can save you a ton of time from creating your own content in-house, and can also save you time and cash over hiring outsourcers to create content for you.

?
There is one small problem that you need to be made aware of…

Most PLR Content Sucks!
There I said it, most PLR content sucks, it’s unfortunate but true.

There are literally thousands of places to get PLR content on the Internet, but most of the PLR content that you come across on the Internet can be flat out cheap and tacky.

There are many PLR content creators that try to take the cheapest route possible when creating the content that they will try to sell to you. You have to be very careful when purchasing PLR content, because of the content sucks, it’s going to make it look like you suck when you try to delivered that content to your customers.

You are better off delivering no new content to your customers, then to distribute content with your name on it that has been created poorly.

When you do find good quality PLR content however, you can resell that content directly to your customers as is, or rip the content apart and create new derivative products and training tutorials at a cost well below creating content from scratch.

The point of buying PLR is so that you have the freedom to customize your products but you don’t necessarily have to! The products should be of a high quality standard! Jeremy Burns, Creator of Source Code Gold Mine, understands this. All of his products are pretty much ready-to-sell and you have complete control over anything you want to customize.

Jeremy just launched his latest package of 10 brand new PLR products. SOurce Code Gold Mine v12 is live.

This package contains not only the products for you to resell but its also available with all the necessary web pages, marketing tools and more to jump start your Internet business!

Spooks

I wonder what it is like to see yourself on screen. Well, thanks to BBC click for highlighting the website of BBC Three’s series Spooks. It is called facespooks.co.uk and allows you to star in your own mini episode of Spooks. When the presenter said it was weird to see an image of herself in the computer generated episode, I felt the same way.

The website uses good web technology and manage to reproduce a fairly good quality computer resemblence of me after I uploaded a picture of mine. Well, enough said, try streaming the episode below. (It states that the video will only last for 3 months, so if you see nothing, your time is probably up!)

If you have enjoyed it, why not head to the site and create your own while you still can.

That’s all and enjoy what is left of your weekend!

Keep Your Windows Media Player Above All

Woke up early this morning as usual and my list of back log blog post is growing as ever. Today is Malaysia’s National Day! (Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka!)

Since yesterday, I have been watching movies on my laptop back to back, In Bruges (Dark Comedy and I have been there), The Love Guru (Sorry Justin Timberlake, but you just can’t act!), Baby Mama (poor acting as well), Batman Begins (I love Dark Knight which is the reason I watch this) and then this morning Son Of Rambow (Something different). I watched these movies while I was developing my web pages. I discovered a setting within Windows Media Player which will allow your player window to stay in front of everything else. Go to the options and tick the box as highlighted in the screenshot below:

Free Image Hosting

This is a good discovery for me as it allows me to do more at the same time and I do not necessarily want to watch a full movie without being able to other tasks on my machine. This is another testimony that I can indeed multitask to those sceptics out there :)

Enjoy what is remaining of your weekend!

How Much Is Your Domain Worth?

Use this website to find out how much your domain name is worth. Apparently bennyong.com is only worth this much but regardless the price, I am never go to give up this domain. (at least this is what I have in mind now)

According to the site, my domain name is worth this much:

Dnscoop.com is something like Alexa’s free report but instead, it evaluates the value of your website. This should be a good tool to use when you are thinking about acquiring a domain name from a seller.

DNScoop.com

Besides giving you an overview of your website evaluation, it also suggests ways you can increase the income of your webpage.

Try this tool on your own domain name and find out how much it is worth.

BBC Click

After Tech TV bid farewell to our screens, I was in denial and desperately searching for a show that will replace it. It was not too long later that I found out about Click and have been quite a loyal follower.

To satisfy your thirst for technology, do watch BBC’s flagship technology program whereby you can stream the full episode online. It is a weekly program and my fave segment is Webscape whereby they showcase an average of 4 interesting and helpful websites.

It airs on a weekly basis and you can sometimes watch it on the in-flight entertainment system.

Just visit the website to find out more and stream one episode to see if it is your sort of cup of tea.

In A Nutshell

I am not sure how this website sustains itself by having just Google Adsense but if you use it, you have to take on the risk of your website having invalid image links if it ever go bust. I am using it and have faith that this website will be around for a while.

PortableApps.com

I wish I would have discovered this tool earlier. After being in Southampton for less than half a week, I am starting to miss the applications on my PC back home. On streaming one of my fave shows on the net, BBC’s Click, I found out about PortableApps.com.

PortableApps

PortableApps.com is a free application that allows you to install and run your applications from your USB drive hence allowing you to bring all the applications you want with yourself everywhere you go. As the name implies, you can make your applications portable.

Browsing through the website, I also found a list of free applications that I can download which includes sudoku games, office suites, web browser, e-mail clients and etc.

I have not personally tried it yet due to time constraint but will do so the soonest I get a chance to.

Well, that’s all from me now and I better get showering for another productive day at work.

Cheers,

Benny Ong
