Jumpstart Your Online Business With Private Label Rights

Posted on by Sheila Atwood

Private label rights, also known as PLR, are digital products that have already been written and are available to you to sell on your own website. The author was paid to write them, and you can purchase the rights for less than ten dollars in most cases. They also come with graphics and a sales letter, so you can be in business in a very short time.

If you have ever wanted to have an online business, this is an excellent way to get started without having to write your own eBook. You will want to edit the PLR eBook before you make it available for sale, but editing is much easier than writing from the very beginning.

Learning how to start your online business using this method will help you to build a passive income stream for years to come. You will be able to repeat the process over and over to earn even more money on the internet.

Just think of how many niche sites you could have if you took advantage of great PLR.

You are in Luck! Continue reading →

WordCamp Salt Lake City – State of The Word 2011

Posted on by Sheila Atwood

Last Saturday I was fortunate enough to attended WordCamp SLC. I attended my first WordCamp in 2007, before I even set up my first WordPress site. WordPress has come a long way since then. And I have come along way since then.

WordCamp was so full of great data I decided to split the information up into several posts. Let’s start with the opening keynote speaker and the “State of The Word 2011″.

Pete Davies started WordCamp SLC with an overview of WordPress and the 2011 survey. You can see the more on the survey in this video with WordPress founder and Automattic co-founder Matt Mullenweg. WordPress has come from…What is happening now…What is in the future.

I have found that creating an online presence can sound very overwhelming. Business owners do not need one more thing to do. Just dealing with the day to day business affairs is enough.

Would your offline line business fail because you do not go online? Continue reading →
