The Big Dumb Marketers Guide to Putting Your Outsourched Content To Good Use
This is where things get interesting. First, take your ten articles and submit them to Associated Content as non-exclusive articles. AC will generally pay you around $4 per article for non-exclusive rights, cutting your out of pocket costs down to $60 total. That’s one use for your ten articles. Be sure to use non-exclusive and submit to AC first, in order to get your articles approved and earn your money back. If you submit to an article directory first, they will not accept your content.
Cheap Content - Option #4
Option #4 - Embrace the power of PLR
First off, if you are not sure what PLR is, then here is a quick explanation. PLR stands for Private Label Rights. What this means is if you have a PLR article, that means you have rights to re-work, re-word, re-write or all of the above, and then to re-distribute that article as your own.
So what can we do with PLR content? First you will want to find PLR content on your niche of choice. Next, find a writer. Bring the two together, and you’ve got a decent chance at ending up with quality content cheaply. Most writers will rewrite an article for much cheaper than they will writing a completely new article. Just be sure that your writer understands exactly what you mean by “rewrite”. Do you want 30% new content? 50%? 99%? Explain what you want clearly, and expect to pay accordingly.
A second route is you could rewrite the content yourself. But if you are looking for the content to be easy, then this might not be your best choice. However, it is an option as well, and will save you the cost of hiring a writer.
Tomorrow I will be posting the fifth and final idea for Quality Cheap Content, so stay tuned.

Cheap Content - Option #3
Option #3 - WAHM’s
One of the best resources for cheap and usually very high quality content is work at home moms, aka WAHM’s.
Most stay at home moms are looking for a way to earn a little supplemental income. If you know any locally or virtually, ask them if they’d be interested in writing for you. You can also use your favorite search engine to find stay at home moms and work at home mom forums, to see if any writer mamas are looking for work. Sometimes, they just want to see their name in print and supplement the family income, and are willing to work for less than a traditional ghostwriter.
This is one of The Big Dumb Marketers favorite resources for quality cheap content. It is beneficial to both you and the moms you work with, so it is really a win-win situation.

Cheap Content - Option #2
Option #2 – Forum Marketing
Alright, it is time for Option 2 for a Big Dumb Marketer to get himself some cheap content. This option is forum marketing and is a great opportunity for some very cheap and high quality content. There are 2 different routes to go about this. The first route is if you are looking for content on a specific niche, then find an active forum related to that niche and scout out some members who post a lot and seem to have a good knowledge of the niche. Send them a message asking them if they would like to get paid for writing a few short articles. Chances are they never thought they could get paid for something they love to talk about anyways. This is one good route to go.
The second route is to find a qualified ghost writer at an internet marketing forum. Look around on internet marketing forums like the Warrior Forum, Digital Point, and SitePoint. There are nearly always writers there, and many of them run special offers. Take advantage of these offers to pick up content at cheap rates. Treat the writers you work with well, and you may be able to retain them for future projects. It is good to build relationships with any quality writers you find so that when you have a need for content, you have someone to turn to.
That is it for Option 2. Hopefully you are beginning to see that finding cheap content is something even a Big Dumb Marketer can do.
