Let's talk about cheap PLR and why you usually get what you pay for. 

Today's video and this blog post are about why it isn't a good idea to buy cheap PLR. You get what you paid for and there are some pitfalls you need to be aware of. If you're not, you might end up wasting more time on bad PLR than you would have spent skipping pre-written content altogether.

Watch this short video tip on why it isn't a good idea to buy cheap PLR.

This is going to be a short video, but I hope you take what I’m telling you to heart. There is a lot of great PLR out there and there’s also a lot of regurgitated junk. There are bundles of hundreds of ebooks that you can buy for $3.99 that have been sold and resold thousands of times. There are large and inexpensive bundles out there of poorly written content.

I know because I’ve bought some of it. And because I am stubborn and hate admitting to myself that I’ve made a mistake, I tried to fix it and edit it into something usable. I finally had to give up. Did I mention I’m stubborn? I’m also incredibly frugal, which is why I bought it in the first place. It’s also why I tried so hard to fix it. Then I realized it would be faster to create something from scratch than to fix that mess.

It’s not that it wasn’t perfect. It was an ineligible mess. There were formatting issues, spelling errors etc. It was bad and I should have given up the moment I unzipped it and looked at the first few pages.

I’m not saying that you shouldn’t snag up a great deal. We offer them all the time. But overall, if it looks too good to be true, it’s probably not worth your time and money, no matter how inexpensive it is.

Do your homework. See if you can find samples or previews. Or buy it, but go into it with the mindset that it might be money lost and then toss it and move on. Don’t waste precious time fixing something that’s broken. Spend a little more or wait for a good sale from a proven provider of quality PLR content.
