Before we proceed with this Article Underground Review, we will briefly discuss what this type of service is and how to distinguish between a good and bad service provider in this field.

What exactly does a PLR service do? The answer is quite simple: they provide content to website owners which they can use freely on their websites, or edit it before using. They don’t have to link back to anyone or give credit to the authors. If you have a website where you want to display Google Adsense ads, affiliate links or any other form of advertisement, you might find this useful.

Probably the most important thing to look out for when using a PLR service is the quality of the content they provide. It’s useless if they provide you with 100 “seo optimized” pages generated by computers for computers. Then you could just as well have used one of the free article spinner packages available for download all over the Internet. What you want is quality content created by humans for humans.

In this respect Article Underground does well. They have a team of authors that are highly experienced. The articles are of a good quality and entertaining. They also contain well researched keywords mentioned at strategic places in the article to get the attention of search engine spiders.

That brings us to the following requirement of a good PLR service. The articles must be relevant to your website. If you have a website about model aeroplanes, articles about divorce proceedings is NOT what you want.

To overcome this, some PLR services offer article packs about niche subjects. So you choose 5, 10 or 20 articles about a niche that fits in with the subject of your website.

Membership based sites like Article Underground do not follow this strategy. Your membership entitles you to receive a certain number of articles every month. This could well work out badly for the individual website owner, but Article Underground solves the problem by giving you access to 400 new articles every month – in a variety of carefully researched niche subjects – so you can choose only those that fit in with your website.

This brings us to the next question: how many other members get access to the same content? There are some membership based PLR sites that place no limit on the number of people signing up. You might end up with 20 000 other members using the same content as you on their websites. This is not a recipe for unique content! Article Underground solves this potential problem by only accepting 350 members for each phase of membership. While this is not 100% unique content, it surely beats sharing it with 20 000 other members, or paying a team of article writer to write 400 unique articles for you every month.

A final criteria when choosing a PLR service is whether they provide added value. Things like tutorials on how to use their articles to make money, discussion forums so members can exchange ideas and possibly even the opportunity to advertise your website for free.

In all these areas Article Underground does well. They give you access to more than 20 blogs where you can write comments with links back to your website pages. There is a multitude of training videos and e-books available to members and they have a very active forum.

We hope this brief Article Underground review will help you to make an informed decision on choosing the right PLR service.
