Article Marketing is an essential part of optimizing your website and generating free traffic to your website. Those of you who have been writing good content articles for the purpose of increasing the value of your website could be sitting on a goldmine of easy cash.
You see – webmasters in all genres or niches are looking for quality content. Certainly they can pull articles from popular article sites like Ezine Articles and others. As a webmaster who has sites in several niches and has searched for quality content to bulk up my sites while I write occasionally, I find more often than not that I could write a high quality article with the time I spend searching for articles that meet my high standards.
PLR, or Private Label Rights, is big business. You will find like I did that there’s a lot of trash in that business as well. Of course, PLR articles must be rewritten for quality purposes and to avoid duplicate content problems with search engines. Most webmasters are happy to do that.
What You Need to Turn Your Articles into Cash
Payment Processor: Sell your eBook through ClickBank. Let them handle the payment processing for a little over $1.00 per book. While that seems like a high percentage on a $7.00 eBook, look at it from a different perspective. You do not have to hassle with a merchant account through a gateway payment processor. That, in itself, is well worth the cost.
If you do not already have a merchant account with ClickBank, you will need to set one up when your book is ready to market. There is a one-time cost setting up your merchant account. Again, it’s well worth the cost. Click here for more information about setting up your ClickBank merchant account.
PDF Converter: You need a software program that will easily turn your articles into pdf files that can be read on any computer. There are two approaches you can take when selling your articles. Package them in an eBook or simply package 50 to 100 individual articles and sell them as a PLR Package.
Whichever way you choose to sell your articles you will need a good pdf converter. The one I use installs on your computer as a printer. You write your article and then print it using the pdf printer. That printer does the conversion for you. Within seconds you have your pdf file.
I use the Nova PDF Creator. You can download the product at no cost and see how easy it is. Click here to download Nova PDF Creator.
ZIP Utility: There are numerous reasons you should have a zip program. One of those is for delivery of your pdf eBook or PLR Package. In addition to the actual content you’re selling you will want to include terms of use and any instructions needed by the purchaser. I use Stuffit Deluxe because it offers so many bangs for the buck. One feature that I absolutely love is the ability to compress photos without losing quality. I realize that has nothing to do with your eBook or PLR Package but why not get a program that helps you in many, many ways. You can click that link to check it out.
NOTE: If you like that idea about using PLR articles written by other people, there are two good places where you can get a boatload of them. PLR Articles #1 and PLR Articles #2. And, yes, they’re free.
Remember, this section contains all you really need to create your product and begin earning cash from your writing: pdf creator, zip utility, content (if you need it) and a payment processor.
