Putting free niche articles on your blog

 If you are a regular blog writer you know that you need to have a constant supply of new content. In the early days this is very easy as you have lots to say and the enthusiasm of starting a new blog. In time you will need to start using othere peoples written articles as you will need more inspiration.

Free niche articles are a good way to find more content but you must use them correctly to get the best from them.

Where to find free niche articles

You will do this by joining in with the online community in the internet marketing field. Join forums and memberships sites and become part of the community. There will be many people with articles and free ebooks that they are quite happy to give away. If they are not giving them away they will be very cheap indeed.

What to do with PLR articles.

Once you have a plr article you must rewrite it so that it becomes unique content. The search engines will not rank duplicate content very highly and you will waste your time. To rewrite a plr article you must change the first and last paragraphs and change one words per sentence in the rest of the article. Usually this will make your new article unique in the eyes of google and the other search engines.

A second use for these articles is to combine 2 or 3 of them into one really strong article. This type of hybrid article can be good enough for almost any use. I find articles that are quite similar in topic to use this way. Remember these are free content articles so you need to be creative with them.

Using keywords in free niche articles

One further step I do is to ensure that I put in a good keyword in the title. I also place this a couple of times in the content and as a keyword tag for the blog post.
