The PLR You Want, Just When You Want It!

I came across a new private label rights site the other day and I confess I signed up instantly.

I had to!

The offer was too good.

Here’s the deal. Most of the time we buy PLR as a subscription and every month we get packages of PLR material to use as we choose. Cool, very useful, but there is one big problem. We only get what the proprietors of the PLR site want us to have, No choice. No option to say ‘Hmmm, I need 5 articles on dog food and 3 articles on car buying’

What if that was a possibility? What if a site set up to do just that?

YumPlr was set up to offer PLR on-demand. Thousands of articles and new fresh ones every day published for members and using a site that looks like an article directory. After you sign up all yo have to do is browse or search the directory for the content you want and copy/paste the articles you choose. It is faster then me doing the same search on my own PC.

As the site is new most of the content I have been pulling down is not even published elesewhere yet. Obviously that will change over time but always there is new content each day.

Price is right too, less than $5.00 per month right now, but that is sure to change over the coming months.

Seriously, this is a handy way to get content in the odd niches for the odd projects where we do not want to pay for a writer to do a custom article and where we do not have a file of PLR content already. I’ll be using YumPlr.com a lot.

      Clearing Duplicate Posts In WordPress Autoblogs

      I have been building automated blogs (autoblogs) for several years. One issue that is faced from time to time is that of duplicated posts. I did not have a real solution. Some autopost plugins can look for duplicated content but most do not. As a result I tended to accept that duplicated posts would happen and lived with it.

      Anyway, today I found a plugin that watches for duplicated post titles and will not post a new post if it has the same title as a previous post.

      Dead simple but should do the trick.

      The plugin is written by a French speaking bloke and his blog/download page is in French but if you need help Google Translate can pick up the slack. ;)

      The plugin is called Duplicate Posts Eraser and is available to download from here: BlackMelvyn’s Blog.

      Have a good day!

        Turn Your WordPress Blog Into a Membership Site.

        WordPress blogs are cool, once you know how to install and configure them they are quick to set up and easy to manage. I really like that I can avoid most of the design work of a static site by simply changing or tweaking a theme that somebody else made.

        One thing though has been a problem. How to make a WordPress blog suitable for use as the platform for a membership site. There have been several shots at the task but until recently I had not found anything that worked for me. Some WordPress membership site plugins were badly coded and did not do what they were supposed to. Some WordPress membership software packages had very clunky interfaces that were offputting to site visitors and some did not have the basic kinds of functionality that I needed.

        Recently though things seems to have changed for the better. I am now using a new plugin set called Micro Membership on one of my sites here: Marketers College, online business training for the time being the site is not live and I am still working on the layout and content before transfering over the training vids from their current home. The Micro Membership plugin set is ONLY available through the Warrior Forum at this time but I understand that it will be going on general sale, but at a higher price, in the near future.

        Lo and behold though! This morning I got an email from Matt over at Mass-Automation. He has just released a new plugin to manage WordPress membership sites as well. I have not yet tried this one but I am happy to point it out as, in my experience, any product under the Mass-Automation brand is always well made and worth serious consideration.

        It looks as though both tools cover much of the same ground in basic terms. People sign up and pay money according to the schedule that you set. Micro-Membeship has a very useful future posting facility so that the webmaster can add content to the site for future months meaning that sites can be, to some degree, set and forget contentwise.

        Matt’s WP Membership Tool lacks the future posting facility but there are ways to handle this function within WordPress anyway and seems to offer a little more from the perspective of managing users. There is quite a difference in cost though. Ralph Pruitts Micro-Membership tool costs, for the time being, just $17.95 for unlimited use on any domain that you own. The Mass-Automation tool is priced at $49.99 for any number of sites but with a maximum number of members of 100 - OR - $99.99 for a maximum number of members of 1000. So, much more costly but in comparison with some of the market leading WordPress membership packages this is still very good value for money given that more than one package charges $100 or more for a single install on a single domain.

        For the time being I am going to stick with Micro-Memberships from Ralph Pruitt, if for no other reason than I already have the software. I will probably get hold of the Mass-Automation product as well so that I can play with it.

        Bottom line, there are now several ways to make you WordPress blog able to support the ongoing revenue stream that a membership site can provide and, in my opinion, either of these relatively low cost tools will be able to meet the needs of most WordPress webmasters seeking to run subscription/membership sites.

          My New Site About Article Marketing

          I have recently set up a new site about article marketing, www.acclaimedarticles.com . I have been involved with article marketing since 2005 since I set up my first article directory and Adsense websites and article marketing in one form or another has been very good to me over the years. I felt it was time to start looking at sharing some of what I have learnt since my early days.

          I chose to maintain the focus on littleautomaticmoneymaker.com toward making money using blogs so I needed a new site for the info on article marketing. Please drop on by and check us out, maybe make a comment or two. ;)

            Free Content and Free Backlinks For Your Blog - Backlinks Magnet Plugin.

            The Backlinks Magnet Wordpress Plugin is a FREE WordPress plugin that can be installed and configured on your blog in just a few minutes. Just like any normal WordPress plugin you just upload the software to your Wordpress blog’s Plugin directory, activate the plugin, and take a few minutes to do some configuration to ensure that you get content that fits exactly to your site’s niche. This software has been designed so that anyone can have it operational with the minimum of fuss.

            Backlinks Magnet: 10 Important Benefits 

            1. It allows the blogger to receive specific, targeted article content from The Phantom Writers article submission service, after making a few simple decisions about desired content requirements. The Phantom Writers is one fo the premier article syndication and distribution services and their content has been for several years one of only two sources from which I take content without prior review.

            2. You can choose content based on submission service categories or article keywords.  This means you get content targeted exactly to your site’s niche AND in the right categories as well, no more changing categories for submitted content, it will be where you want it!

            3. You have full control over how content is reorganized on your blog. This has been structured to make the organization process super easy.

            4. Each article carries up to three keyword tags when it is posted on your Wordpress blog website. Your site visitors will be able to find similar content elsewhere on your site without you needing to manually add tags to the articles. Visitors will stay longer and read more pages.

            5. It also creates a tag for the article author (author’s index page), so that articles can be located by author within your blog. This is cool because as you get more articles you can start to find a following for some of the authors and their articles - some of the writers really are worth having on your sites!

            6. Every article carries a link to the author’s index page on your blog. You are automatically providing attribution to the content author, no worries from ISPs or angry writers threatening DMCA takedown notices.

            7. The plugin notifies the article submission company as to what URL the article has been placed. This enables them to provide the second part of the service to blog owners - backlinks to specific pages in your site, this builds internal Page Rank (PR) and authority, not just your home page benefits.

            8. In the case of articles sent to your blog by the The Phantom Writers article submission service, The Phantom Writers will ensure that every article posted to your website will have its own inbound links, a.k.a. link popularity.  This serves to increase your page’s PR.

            9. Inbound links, pointing to article placements, will arrive from a variety of websites / IP blocks. 10. Did I mention that the Backlinks Magnet WordPress Blog Plugin (paid for and designed by The Phantom Writers) is FREE to download and to use?  What’s to lose here?

            Visit the Backlinks Magnet website at http://www.backlinksmagnet.com/ to learn more and to get the download URL.

              PortalFeeder Doors Closing Soon!

              SUBJECT: Doors closing soon (don’t miss out this time)

              I wanted to give you a quick heads up…

              Like you, I purchased books, software, tools and everything else to try and build a successful online business.

              But, one thing has made a huge difference in my success online and I want to share it with you today.

              Several years ago, I discovered something called PortalFeeder.

              What is PortalFeeder?

              Well, it’s not a “product”.

              Imagine this…. what if you could tap into a community of hotshot Internet Marketers and pick their brains, get new ideas, strategies, and answers to your top questions… everyday.

              Plus, you get access to the same proprietary software and website promotion tools that they use to dominate the search engines.

              Also, what if you were assigned a Mentor to help you, guide you, and provide you with a proven blueprint and roadmap for success.

              If you had access to all of this, wouldn’t it be easy for you to succeed online?

              Yes it would. And I am living proof of it. :-)

              PortalFeeder has really changed my life.

              I am no longer an ebook junkie. PortalFeeder gives me all the latest software, training, tactics and techniques that I need to get traffic and make money online.

              The bad news is… PortalFeeder is “closed” for most of the year. Membership is limited.

              However, there is some good news. PortalFeeder is accepting new members again. The Bad news is that the doors are closing again soon.

              That’s why I wanted to mention it to you. Once you hit the link below, you will be able to check that you are not too late:

              Am I too late to join Portal Feeder

              This way, you’ll get more information about PortalFeeder and be among the few people to have aspot within PortalFeeder.

              I know you’ll want to find out more about PortalFeeder and what it will do for you.

              Here’s the page again. Go check it out before it slips your mind:

              Portal Feeder Signup

              I hope to see you inside the PortalFeeder private forum. Just look for me and say HI. My nickname in the forum is Andrew W.

                Adwords Digger the Cool Adwords Content Network Tool I Forgot About!

                A while back Jason Katzenback of PPC Kahuna and PortalFeeder fame came up with a neat little tool to help increase conversions by finding Adwords Content Network sites that were likely to have traffic that would be interested in the product or service that Adwords advertisers were promoting.

                Adwords Digger is a powerful Pay Per Click research tool for site placement - helping Adwords advertisers to find Adsense Content Network sites that are likely to be able to provide traffic that is likley to convert when they see your Adwords ads.

                This software is FREE but performs a valuable role to Adwords advertisers who want to reduce their advertising costs - that is YOU, isn’t it?

                AdWordsDigger Site Placement Targeting Video Example

                I think Jason can better explain how Adwords Digger works and what it means to you as an Adwords advertiser so check out the video above and maybe mosey over to the download page.

                Oh, one point, the software is referred to by a couple of different names, I dunno why that is so but Adwords Digger = Adsense Finder!

                  Is It Still Possible to Make Money on AdWords?

                  It wasn’t so long ago that it was devastatingly easy to make money on AdWords. You didn’t even need to know that much about PPC advertising. You could get ads for pennies, and you just needed to have a little bit of funds to get you started, and then you could sit back and watch your income increase as you make money on Adwords.

                  But, like any easy and simple way to make money, especially when you don’t have to put up a lot of money to get started, soon everybody was getting in the game, wanting to make money on AdWords. The more people there were, the harder it became to make easy money with AdWords. The increased competition drove up the prices on the AdWords ads, and what was previously cost pennies now cost dollars.

                  People who didn’t pay attention to their PPC advertising campaigns very closely started losing money. This came as a shock to many, who had come to depend on getting to make money on AdWords. Many people who had made a lot of money gave up, saying that it was now impossible to make the kind of profits that they used to when they used to make money on AdWords.

                  And those people were right about one thing: it certainly wasn’t as easy anymore to make money on AdWords. But it wasn’t impossible. You just need to work smart, not hard. You can’t just throw some money at it and walk away and expect to make money on AdWords. But if you know what you’re doing, it is still very much a reality that you can be profitable with AdWords, no matter what your budget.

                  What you need to do today to make money on AdWords is simple: you need to research your keywords and choose them carefully, and you need to put some time and effort into your AdWords ad and landing page.

                  By choosing the right keywords, you can make sure that you don’t have too much competition that will drive the price of the ad up, while still picking keywords that have enough interest and searched to drive enough people to your site. It just takes a little more thought and effort to make money on AdWords than it used to.

                  By taking time and care with your AdWords ad, and then making sure that you follow up with what you promised in your ad on your landing page, you will find it easier to make money on AdWords. There are so many AdWords ads out there that don’t do this that you will stand out from the crowd as a higher quality ad; the higher the perceived quality of your ads and your landing pages, the easier it will be for you to convert into a sale and make money on AdWords.
