PLRSiteBuilder: Quickly and Easily Build AdSense-Ready Websites

September 28th, 2007

In my last post I pointed you to the Debt Is Great! site and asked you what was special about it. In fact, it’s not the site that’s special but the way it was built: it was built from a collection of text files using my new PLRSiteBuilder tool.

PLRSiteBuilder takes a series of text files and creates a fully working, AdSense-ready site out of them in no time flat. The “Debt Is Great!” site was build using a bunch of PLR (private label rights) articles I happened to own. I simply threw them into a folder, changed the names of some of the files, and made sure that each article (file) had a title (the first line/paragraph). I then ran the tool on the folder to generate the final website. Everything you see on that site was generated by the tool: the home page, the about page, the privacy page, the XML sitemap. Ads were inserted automatically into the article pages, too. It really is painless. I know the content isn’t great, but that’s not the point of the site.

Here’s some of the feedback I’ve received from a few of my early buyers:

“The software is a dream! Works beautifully and very very easy to customize your pages. It’s really a steal for the price!”

“I just purchased and had a site online within 5 minutes! I love this program, outstanding value for money.”

I’ll be raising the price on this soon, so if you want in now at a great discount, subscribe to this blog to get the magic link to the prelaunch page that explains everything in more detail. The software works on Windows, Macintosh or Linux computers. The only restriction is that you need a hosting service that supports PHP to run the generated sites, as PHP is used extensively for the templating.

Note: Of course, if you really want to do well with AdSense and get great traffic to your sites, you still need great content. This tool doesn’t help with that, it just helps you create the websites. But it’s a real timesaver. I wrote it so I could spend more time on creating good content, not wasting it building sites.

Guess What’s Special About This Site…

September 25th, 2007

Take a look at Debt Is Great!. Besides learning all about student loan consolidation rates and 30-year home loans, there’s something special about this site that I’ll be revealing shortly to my subscribers. (Hint: look past the content.)

Don’t forget you get free stuff for subscribing, too, such as a copy of my SuperSuggester tool.

AdSense Conquers The New York Times

September 24th, 2007

Today I learned that the New York Time was abandoning its paywall. The term “paywall” refers to a blocked off area of a website whose content can only be accessed for a fee, such as via a subscription. Many newspapers protect some or most of their content behind a paywall, a model that has seemingly worked well up until now. Or has it?

In truth, paywalls only work when the content you offer is truly unique and valuable. If there’s another way to get same content for free, guess which model’s going to win? It’s amazing the hoops people will go through in order to avoid paying for something. News is so easy to find for free these days that the NYT was probably seeing its subscription base starting to decline.

This is further validation that the AdSense monetization model — make content available for free and make money from advertising — works. Expect to see more organizations drop or cut back on their paywalls.
