While the popularity of Private Label Rights (PLR) material has exploded in recent years, the supply of quality Private Label Rights websites has not kept up with the demand. The problem isn’t that there aren’t Private Label Rights websites out there.

There are a ton of them. The problem is finding one that has good-to-excellent quality materials being offered. Those are in very, very short supply.

The monthly subscription price isn’t always telling as to the quality of material that will be offered on a Private Label Rights website although it can be an indicator.

The lower the price of the monthly subscription equals a higher number of subscribers is the norm.

That is; Private Label Rights websites that offer a lower monthly subscription fee, most often offer that lower subscription fee to more people.

This lower rate does not necessarily mean that the materials offered will be substandard. It only means that more people will have purchased the right to use them.

They will be used on more websites or offered for sale by more people and this will mean that more extensive rewriting will be required to avoid the ‘duplicate content’ problem.

Chapter 4 - Motherhood

You’ve gone through the grueling hours of labor and delivery, and now it’s time to enjoy your newborn. While you may not get enough sleep and will feel like you’re running on empty, the sheer joy that a child brings is enough to make up for all of the sacrifices.

Taking Baby Home

While your body went through massive changes during pregnancy (and will continue to do so postpartum) your life will also change dramatically now that baby has arrived. Once you get home you’ll more than likely want to take a nap. The old adage, sleep when baby sleeps is a good one to follow. You and your partner may wish to introduce the little one to his or her new home and then tuck them in their new crib.

New fathers can help out by taking care of household duties, changing diapers and letting mom get some well-deserved sleep. You may even wish to take a nap together while baby sleeps. You probably haven’t had very much alone time these past few days, so take these relaxing moments for all they’re worth.

You should also expect visits from family and friends at this point in time. Everyone will be enthusiastic to see your baby, but be careful not to run yourself ragged. Be honest with family when you’re tired and need to rest rather than socialize.

While you’ll most likely feel overwhelmed, remember that there are always people to help you. Your partner, your family and friends are more than willing to lend a helping hand so you can have some time for yourself.

Becoming a "Mom"

It may be a bit strange to take on this new role as “mother,” considering the only mother in your life up until now has been your own. Becoming a mom isn’t that difficult in the sense that you must suddenly begin acting like one. For most women, it will be instinctual. You will naturally worry about the wellbeing of your child and do your best for them all the time. However, as your child grows, the skills necessary to cope with your child’s behavior are learned. Just as with every other role in life or even jobs, the finer details are learned, not inherited.

A lot of new moms and even many not so new moms feel as though they lose a bit of themselves or a bit of their personal identity upon becoming a mother. While it may feel this way, it certainly doesn’t have to be this way.

Letting a child take over your entire life is not very healthy. You still need things for yourself as well like your career, love life and hobbies. While you may not be able to devote as much time to these things as before, you can still keep your “old” self alive and kicking.

IBS is nothing to worry about when it happens. It is something to think about and plan for before the symptoms set in.

You should also consume the right amount of fiber for your needs. Those that face constipation are the most likely to need an additional source of fiber including with the help of supplements.

Counseling: There is no doubt about it, you need to work with your doctor to plan out the treatment that is right for you but you also should consider counseling. When it comes to IBS, it is essential to meet the emotional needs as well as the physical. In that, you want to consider talking to a psychologist or a psychiatrist.

Mind Therapy: While we mentioned getting counseling, there is a lot that you can do on your own to help reduce or prevent IBS symptoms when it comes to your mind. Meditation is a great tool for this. Get in the time necessary to allow yourself to clear your mind. It will help to relieve your stress and give you time to relax.

A great way to do this is to just come home and take a relaxing bath. Or find time before or after work when everyone is in bed to relax for a few minutes, alone with your thoughts.

Biofeedback: This is an excellent technique to learn to help you to reduce the amount of stress you are under. In this regard, you will learn how to accomplish this with the help of a machine. What it does is helps to reduce muscle tension and helps you to slow your heart rate. Although a machine will help you to do this at first, the goal is to show you how so that you can manage stress more effectively on your own.

Talk to your doctor about biofeedback opportunities. In most cases, they can be done in your local medical center or you can often find out more through your local hospital.

Hypnosis: As we mentioned earlier, the goal of hypnosis in regards of IBS is that of lowering the amount of pain that you are experiencing. With a skilled hypnotist, you can find benefits through relaxation for some or all of the symptoms you are facing due to IBS. It has been proven to be effective in reducing the amount of episodes of painful abdominal cramps as well as bloating.

Chapter 5 – The Summer Before College…

You just graduated from high school and you’re on top of the world. It may feel like the end of an era, and it really is. The sad truth is that you may not see many of the familiar faces from high school again. But before you become nostalgic for simpler times gone by, stay committed to your college goals. You’ll be on campus in a few short months starting an entirely new phase of your life. Enjoy this last summer before college, but keep your goals in sight.

Get a job

If you haven’t worked before, now is the time to suck it up and get a job. Let’s face it: college is expensive! By getting a job over the summer—and saving the money you earn, of course—you’ll be able to buy those school supplies and books once the fall semester begins.

Even if your parents are paying for all of your college expenses or you’re getting a federal grant, you will still need money to pay for food and other items, especially if you’re living on campus. What if you run out of printer ink the night before a paper is due? You’ll have to run down to the campus store and buy some. You obviously can’t do this without some money in the bank.

Another added bonus of having a job over the summer is it will take your mind off of the impending start of college. Many people find themselves stressed out at the change college brings to their lives. Having a job keeps you productive and focused rather than sitting at home worrying.

You may even be able to buy yourself something fun before you bury your nose in books for four months and don’t reappear until December. Regardless of what you do, having a job keeps you disciplined and in top shape for a fast paced environment. You’ll be ready to attend classes like a pro.

Make time for friends

This may be the last summer you have at home. It also may be the last time you see some of your childhood friends. If you grew up in the same place you went to high school, you’ve probably known the same people since you were five years old! It will be sad to say goodbye, but you can make the most of this time by doing fun things with those you care about.

Be sure to collect the contact information of your closest friends. You’ll want to keep in touch once you start college, and it will be too hectic at the beginning of the semester to do such things. Exchange addresses and dorm information BEFORE you leave to move in.

You can also make an extra effort to spend time with those people that will be going to colleges far away from where you will be attending. Do things in your hometown and enjoy the home life as much as possible. In a few short months, you’ll be missing it.

Chapter 6 - Termite Prevention

Keeping termites away from your home in the first place can be the best way to save money although you will still want to have at least annual treatments to make sure that they don’t come around in the first place. But taking measures to be sure that conditions are not conducive to their survival just makes sense.

First, don’t feed them. Whether you know it or not, by having certain conditions present in and around your house, you are giving the termites a food source that will sustain the colony and keep them reproducing making more and more termites that will damage your home.

Keep your gutters clean. Wet leaves provide moisture and food for the pests, and since the gutters are attached to your home, it's an easy point of entry. Clogged gutters can also contribute to moisture problems by soaking wood off the roof and fascia boards.

Wood piles and construction debris, boards left touching the ground or fences without proper ground clearance can all be food sources. Cardboard is also a favorite food of termites and damp cardboard around or under a house could provide an ideal opportunity for termites.

Building a deck? Make concrete barriers part of your plan and be sure to use borate-treated, pressurized wood. The USDA's Forest Service has a bulletin on subterranean termites with helpful hints on construction practices.

Your contractor may also have suggestions for preventing termite infestations. Stucco facades extending near or into the soil surface provide a haven for termites, allowing them to move into a home undetected.
