Making The Most of Public Domain and Private Label Content
There's so much public domain content available all over the Internet, with Master Resale Rights available and sites springing up left and right with Private Label articles you can use to create your own products, but what do you need to bear in mind, what is the best way to use all this content and what can you create with it?
What to Look Out For:
Copyright - you absolutely must check on this - violating someone's copyright is not clever and can be a really expensive mistake not to mention seriously damaging your reputation. Is it really public domain? All those lawyers fees can really mount up when checking into all this but believe me, you really don't want to end up in court over it.
Public Domain Content - If you have the money to have a lawyer look at copyright for you then fine, go ahead and get started. Where can you find this type of content? It can be difficult to find content that is free to use but here are a few links to get you started:
Master Resale Rights - If you can't afford expensive lawyers what else can you do? One rather less pricey way is to buy Master Resale Rights to a product - this gives you the opportunity to sell the product yourself, offer others the right to sell the product, and offer others the right to sell master resale rights - the possibilities are endless. Just be aware with this that you will need to look at the terms and conditions of what you are allowed to do with the product before you buy.
Private Label Rights - There are services that collect articles written by ghost writers that are available for almost unlimited use. You can include entire articles on your website or in your publications; you can use portions of articles. And you can claim authorship of the articles without giving credit to the actual authors. One site offering private label rights is InfoGoRound.com
Another site for private label rights articles is Cody Moya's YourOwnArticles.com. This provides 250 Private Label Articles plus 5 private label reports every month within targeted niche markets.

You could also sign up to some of the well known Internet marketer's newsletters. Why? Well if you're serious about Internet marketing you should be checking out all the latest happenings anyway, but a lot of newsletter owners will have free ebooks, giveaways and articles to download - some of which you will be able to use as your own.
Some marketers also provide email courses on various topics.
Cody Moya offers a huge, 50 part, course on Article Marketing. It describes how to hold on to your customers, how to get higher ranking in the search engines, how to close the sale, viral marketing, how to find articles, and so much more.

So you've got your content ready to go and you've checked your rights and permissions but there is one more thing to think about - sites such as http://www.copyscape.com can check for duplicate content on the Internet and of course so can the search engines. This could mean anything from the search engines deciding they won't rate your site as highly because the exact same content is available elsewhere to some smarty pants asking you if you really did write that incredibly good article because they've seen someone else claiming that they wrote it too, so you do need to be aware of this when looking to use content you haven't personally created, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't go ahead and make the most of all that wonderful information.
What Can You Do?
You could just read the information to learn from it yourself; you could read it to get ideas for businesses, more articles, content, the list is limited only by your imagination.
How about:
- Ebooks
- Print Books
- Presentations
- Membership Sites
- Face to face courses
- Mini courses
- Teleclass content
- Webcast content
- Podcast content
- Blog content
- Content for your Autoresponder
- Ezine content
- Articles for your site to build AdSense income pages
- Viral Reports
- Tips Lists
When it comes to using all the content you have gathered, you need to look through it all and decide what you want to produce. If you plan to use content from more than one source, such as 2 or 3 articles by different authors to be combined into a report, you will need to go through and change the content into a similar style, check that it is all written in the same tense, make sure the formatting is the same throughout, check for spelling and grammar (for example - spelling for some words is different in the US than the UK) and look through all the articles to see if any of the points made are duplicated.
Once you've done this, make a list of points you want to make in your report, read the articles through again and start combining them together to fit what you want to say - cut and paste to copy sections into the right place.
Next, look at the way your draft reads now and see if it fits your style of writing, your personality and your business. Reword it to fit with this - there's no point in producing a very formally written, stiff sounding report for a hobby site.
At this point you could just tweak it, proof read it, and then go ahead and publish it but to take it a step further and make it really unique, why not look at how you might rewrite it so that all of the content is yours - now you've got the basic idea down and laid out, it shouldn't take you long to reword things, add in some of your own ideas and keywords that fit your site, and maybe a few quotes and suddenly you're looking at something that no-one else has got, that the search engines will love and that no-one can claim you copied.

HTML Essentials
The fact is, by building your pages using an HTML editor there are only a dozen things you need to know.
HTML web pages are created using plain characters, just like you would type into notepad or Microsoft Word. A few control "tags" will help you format the content of your web page.
To create web pages you will need to know a few basic tags:
- Creating paragraphs with the <P> tag. (Ending a paragraph with a </P> tag is optional.)
- Making words bold with the <B>These words are bold</B> tags.
- Creating headings with tags such as <H1>Main Heading</H1>, and <H2>Sub Heading</H2>.
- Centering with the <CENTER>This text is centered on the page</CENTER> tags.
- Creating tables using <TABLE> <TR> <TD> and </TD> </TR> </TABLE> tags.
- Creating links with tags like <A HREF="http://www.cogingen.com">Cognigen Web Site</A>
- Adding images with tags like <IMG SRC="logo.gif">
- Creating unordered lists with <UL><LI>Item 1 <LI>Item 2 </UL>
- Creating ordered or numbered lists with <OL><LI>Item 1 <LI>Item 2 </OL>
You can probably tell that the HTML tag <B> starts a process (like making the following characters bold) and the tag </B> ends the process (returing to non-bold characters).
Is that it? Well, almost.
If you are interested in using HTML to build your pages you would probably benefit from a simple HTML guide. Many people find that HTML for the World Wide Web with XHTML and CSS is an easy-to-use book. It goes into enough detail but will not put you to sleep like the "HTML for Dummies" books.

Dynamic Web Sites Necessary to Stay Competitive
It was not that long ago that becoming a web page authoring wizard required little more than an understanding of a few dozen Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) tags, and perhaps modest experience with a scanner and a graphics program to generate a corporate logo image file.
The stakes are much higher now. The hobby phase is over.
The Internet is a big business. Competition for visitor "hits" is enormous, as it becomes more and more difficult to get your site noticed, much less bookmarked. Sensing that the authoring world wanted more out of HTML then a poor imitation of the printed page, the web browser makers and Internet standards bodies have been expending the capabilities of web pages at a feverish pace. These changes are allowing us to make our pages more dynamic -- pages that can think and do on their own, without much help from the server once they have been loaded in the browser.
In websites, the most important thing that a user, editor or author looks for is the robustness and the maintainability of the site. In static approach for web page authoring, you simply write a different page for all the content in your site and connect these pages with hyperlinks or most probably by using a navigation bar in the main page. It seems like a simple and manageable idea.
However, when it comes to add new content or change the general layout of the site, it is almost impossible for you to go through each and every page and edit the code.
In the dynamic approach, you use a database as the foundation of your web site. What you put in this database totally depends on what you need to have for your pages; usernames and associated passwords, articles that you are going to use as your content, pictures, files, basically anything that you can think of. This database can be thought as your storage for the elements to build this site. However, it is not you who is building the pages, it is the PHP, ASP, PERL code that you have written or purchased.
The only thing that is left for you is to draw a "plan" for the data driven code so that it knows where to put the building elements that are stored in your database. This plan is called the template for the site which is generally created using Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and Dynamic HTML (DHTML). Once the site is loaded into the browser, dynamic pages in a way "interacts" with the user and generates the HTML pages rather than taking the user from page to page with the help of the hyperlinks.
As one can see very easily, Dynamic Websites seem like the future of the Internet. It saves a lot of time and effort for the authors and also the user from frustration of waiting for the pages to load while visiting a simple site with an interesting article with a lot of pages.
