Frequently Asked Questions
PLR stands for 'Private Label Rights'. It refers to articles which are sold with permission
to be customized and reproduced on websites, blogs, or other promotional material without having to be credited to the original
authors. This is important to
webmasters and bloggers who wish to gain maximum benefit from search engines (Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc.) which reward
sites for original content. For RealtyPLR subscribers, it is like hiring a team of 'ghost writers'.

Yes, you may use them exactly as regular subscribers do. Keep in mind that they may only be used by you
and your firm (branch office in larger firms) and of course may never be sold, shared, or given away to others.
Yes! Here are the first two paragraphs from a 2010 article titled
Even Cowgirls Get The Property Blues
Back in the '90s, Tom Robbins' imaginative novel was repurposed into a forgettable movie -- but the 'Cowgirls'
theme was revived a few years ago in articles about the glum side of skyrocketing property value appraisals:
outsized tax bills whose rise was the source of much gloom and doom.
At least today's property owners don't need to complain about rising property values -- but they can
(and do) worry about the tumble in book value. Since no one who owns local property bought it so that they could lose sleep
over it, how do you (and the cowgirls) make the best of the residential...

The numbers speak for themselves.
In 2011, 88% of buyers used the
Internet as their source for real estate information vs. 30% for newspaper ads and 19% for home books or magazines.
RealtyPLR targets the Internet because it reaches nearly 3 times the number of buyers --- for a cost of less than $1 a day!

Even superior real estate sites may be penalized if their pages remain
static for even a week, and even when common news feeds are included. Thousands of dollars in commissions depend on attracting new buyers and sellers --
and success is increasingly a function of strong web traffic. Since the search engines are constantly
comparing sites for current, relevant and unique content, RealtyPLR is extremely
valuable in saving its users the time they would otherwise need to devote to
constantly creating new content to refresh their site. The literate and readable content from RealtyPLR also gives returning web visitors a
reason to bookmark and revisit your site.
It is the unique way we format and deliver RealtyPLR articles to subscribers.
Because of the SmartWords Advantage, it takes only moments to create new timely content filled with search phrases that
target your territory and the buyers who are already searching the area.
Increased telephone and email traffic are common indicators. RealtyPLR subscribers in less competitive markets can begin to experience
results in as little as two weeks. After uploading a new article or series of articles, simply google one of the keywords plus your town and see where your
website ranks. In more competitive markets, rank improvement will take longer. In all areas, consistency is necessary. The key is to differentiate your site
through a steady infusion of new content over time.
Absolutely not. Each and every RealtyPLR article is freshly created by our U.S. team
to engage current buyers and sellers in today's real estate market and is available only through RealtyPLR.
In online marketing, keywords are the words used by prospective
clients when they search the web for products or services. RealtyPLR articles are
written to subtly include frequent (but not 'packed') mention of the keywords our research staff determines
to have been used most often within the past 45 days. By making it quick and easy for you to combine your
own location with keywords to create geographically-targeted 'keyword phrases', RealtyPLR
subscribers use every article to attract potential clients.
Customizing maximizes the number of clients in your
territory (the town or neighborhood you claim when subscribing)
who find your site through the maze of competitive sites. It builds your company and personal brand by giving it a
current and local flavor. It also helps search engines know that you are providing your
blog and web readers with current content aimed at the area they are most interested in.
'Search Engine Optimization' -- it's the process of gaining more
visitors to a web site by improving its place on the results pages of search engines like
Google, Yahoo!, Bing, Ask, etc.
Use and change them in any way you like, provided you do not resell
or give them to anyone else. Typical uses are: posting on your company or personal web site, in
blogs, as features in regular or special newsletters, as part of social media or email campaigns, etc.
The costs of creating and supplying the PLR articles are split among the limited group of
subscribers.
Each Monday you are emailed the week's release of four original RealtyPLR articles.
You are authorized to customize and use as many of them as you like. You retain your rights to use them in
perpetuity as long as you abide by the terms and conditions of use, and may claim authorship if you choose.
Most companies find that one or two original articles per week are all they
need to maintain freshness and relevancy to visitors and the search engine
spiders. With at least twice that number available,
subscribers can pick subjects and points of view they judge to be most
appealing to their own client base.
Just contact the support desk and we'll help. This rarely happens since articles are sent in standard format.
The articles are written and edited by published authors and working real estate
professionals. Importantly, all the editorial staff personnel are American college-educated. We have nothing
against foreign-based writers, but we all know that North American usage and
vocabulary differs in subtle ways from foreign English. Since the target readers are interested
in U.S. or Canadian properties, it's vital to build trust through language that
always rings true.
In the business communications industry, public relations and advertising
consultants universally allow their clients to claim authorship of their
creative output. When a corporate CEO 'writes' a message or a political
candidate delivers 'his' stump speech, no one expects individual staff work
to be attributed. It would be plain silly to do so: not only would that dilute the
message's impact, it would also grossly lower its value to the client.
A busy real estate professional was at lunch with a longtime writer friend
when the conversation turned to advertising and promotion. The pro
complained about the quality of the real estate news service her firm used
to keep their site active for search engine ranking purposes. She thought
the writing was not up to the level of the rest of their site, but had not
been able to find an alternative. The writer (who also happened to be a
veteran syndicated newspaper columnist) was intrigued by what seemed to be a new
internet variation on traditional syndication. After more than a year of research and development, RealtyPLR became
reality.
Just send us an email: we will respond with confirmation of your request and you
will not be billed again unless you decide to reactivate. (You will, however, lose control of your exclusive
territory -- it will be released and made available to the first firm to claim it).
Sorry. One to a customer -- but come on!
