If you can find a good article writer it’s always easier than doing it yourself. The problem for most people is the cost. If you pay $7.50 for a 500 word article (about the going rate for a good article), then it will cost you $150 for just 20 articles.

For most people, paying that much on a regular basis may not be possible. Of course getting just a single article may be worthwhile, but usually it is better to have more content, rather than less.

This is where PLR makes it possible for large numbers of people. What you’re doing is trading a little sweat equity in return for the savings of not buying a unique article.

It’s scary to think of taking the money you earn online and giving it to someone else, but if you think about it the biggest businesses in the world do the same thing. They pay people to do the work. A business with 1 employee is unlikely to be able to do as much as a business with 10 employees.

And if you think about it, what you’re doing by outsourcing your articles is taking on an employee of sorts.

Anyone who starts to make decent money online should certainly consider paying someone else to do some of the work for them. Having your articles written, when you can afford it, is a good way to release your time to work on your online business and make it grow. Just make sure you get good quality articles, or you’ll still have to edit them anyway.

You’re 100% correct. Poor quality PLR material is certainly harder to edit than good quality material.

Of course, I think you probably know that the vast majority of people don’t even use the PLR material they buy and of the ones who use it only a few make any changes to it.

Of that few, only the smallest percentage actually make enough effort to turn the article into something that will reflect well on them.

That’s good news for everyone who actually takes ‘pen to paper’, as it were. There’s just so little competition that it’s possible to do really well. Your return on investment of time can be very high.
