We all know that content really is the king online these days. So it’s no wonder that people turn to services like IDplr to help them create online content. IDplr.com is a PLR website that holds tons of ebooks, software, videos, audio clips and images. Everything stored in the member’s area can be downloaded for your own use.
The website boasts over 6000 eBooks and 20,000 PLR articles, but that’s just for starters. IDplr.com claims to offer more than the average PLR website. There’s an Ebook cover creator, tutorials for making money with PLR content and even free hosting is included within the membership. Sounds great right?
Well, we thought it sounded great too. That was until we started to delve into the membership in detail. It turns out that there is more to IDplr.com than meets the eye.

IDplr Review – Do You Really Get Good Value?
Most people turn to PLR content when they don’t have quite enough time to write their own. But do you really get any value from the content at IDplr or is it just a waste of your time and money? In this review, I’m going to walk you through my personal experience of joining the membership. I’ll show you exactly what we found from the moment we paid our money.
IDplr certainly looks like it’s packed full of value. Let’s take a look at what’s on offer and then we’ll go inside the member’s area for a look at all the features.
What’s Included In The Membership?
But the big question is… How good is IDplr really?
Is it worth the money to join the membership or should you avoid it at all costs? What is the quality of this PLR material? And most importantly, can you really use it to make money online?
Welcome to my IDplr.com review!
My name is Andrew and I have been reviewing products and services that claim to help people make money online for many years. Today we are turning our focus to something that should really help in the process of content creation. But what we found was something slightly different…
If you are wondering if you should join IDplr.com I highly recommend that you read our full review before doing so! If this article helps you in any way, please take a moment to leave us a comment at the bottom of this page. Thank you for your support!
IDplr.com Review – Joining The Gold Membership
IDplr.com offers both free and paid memberships. Today we’ll be looking at the paid membership as there are far more features than the free version. On joining the site I was given the option to join for 3 months at $37. 1 Year is $87, or there is a lifetime option to join for $99. At this stage, I didn’t know the quality of what I was getting, so I opted for the 3 months. A short while later I was quite pleased that I didn’t spend more than $37.
Entering The Members Area
After joining the membership I was sent a link and given access to the member’s area. At first glance, everything seems to be in order. The categories are laid out on the site in a way that’s easy to understand and everything mentioned on the sales page of the site appears to be available in the member’s area. But that was just my first impression…
Although the member’s area looks pretty impressive with their extensive list of downloadable PLR material, I quickly found that there were a few problems with the site. The first problem that I encountered was actually logging into my account.
Although I had been sent a special link to access the member’s area, I had not been sent a password to log into my account. No problem I thought as there was a reset password option in the member’s area. Unfortunately, the reset password option didn’t work.
Never mind, at least I could actually get into the member’s area via the link that I was sent. Maybe I could contact support later on…
The IDplr Ebook Cover Creator
As I was interested in creating my own eBooks and perhaps submitting them to IDplr.com, I was rather interested in the Ebook cover designer that comes with the membership. I have to say that the software looked very impressive from the training video that was supplied. But once again there was a problem…
After sitting through the training and making sure I understood how the software worked, I decided to give it a try. Unfortunately, that was as far as I got, because this is what I was presented with…
Yes, a blank screen with the word “here” in the top left corner is all I got when trying to run the software. Since the software runs using flash player, I figured that I might need to update to the latest version. However, this was not the case. The software simply didn’t work. I figured that I would add this to my list when contacting support…
As I had already found a couple of areas on the site that weren’t working as I had hoped they would, I decided to check out the E-book submission section. Submitting an e-book to a popular PLR site can be a great way to give you a bit of publicity, so long as the book is of good quality of course. I had an e-book that I was willing to give away, so I decided to check out the submission process…
Submitting An E-Book To IDplr.com – Not So Easy…
As I already had an e-Book that I had written some time ago, I thought it would be a great experiment to see if it could get me some extra exposure. The submission process on IDplr looked very simple. You upload your product and the cover graphics, put a description in, enter the security “captcha” and hit submit. Sounds simple right? Well, no…
You see, right at the bottom of the submission form you need to enter a security captcha phrase. Unfortunately, that’s not working either. Another thing to add to my list when contacting support!!
The Quality Of The PLR Material
Well, it’s fair to say that my first impressions of IDplr.com were not so great. In the first 20 minutes of being a gold member, I had found 3 issues that really should have been fixed. However, I am aware that things do go wrong and for the benefit of this review, I intend to contact support in order to give them a chance to rectify the issues. More on that later on…
So, I next moved on to the overall quality of the PLR products inside the member’s area. To be completely fair, there is a lot of content on this site. But is it of high quality and will it really help you to make money online? Well, I have seen quite a few PLR websites in my time and to be completely honest, IDplr is much the same. There is an absolute ton of content that you can download from the website, but a lot of it is a little dated. You have to remember that most of this content has been produced and given away. So you can’t really expect top-notch, high-quality products and articles. Like a lot of PLR content, you are going to spend a lot of time editing out old outdated content and making it your own, if you care about producing quality content.
But in general, the quality and amount of content on the IDplr website was pretty good.
Is IDplr Updated On A Regular Basis?
One thing that I did notice when looking around the member’s area was that although they claim to have thousands of downloads available, some of the content sections hadn’t been updated in months. Maybe this is because people are unable to submit their own content? Hmmm…
I decided to contact the IDplr.com support team about the issues that I had found. I hoped that it wouldn’t take too long to get a response…
Contacting IDplr Support
It’s always good to see that you can easily contact support on a website when you need it. IDplr.com clearly want to offer their customers some support as they have a nice clear link at the top of their member’s area. This should be easy… Or so I thought…
The support page is rather simple, nothing too complex here. I filled out the form with my concerns and…
Yes, you guessed it… The support form doesn’t work either!!!
Not A Good Start To My So Called Gold Membership!!
IDplr.com Review – Final Thoughts
Well, it has to be said that I do think that IDplr could be a great website. However, the features that I explored within the first half-hour of joining just didn’t work. In my opinion, the main thing that you should always offer your customers is support. The fact that the support form does not work, tells me that the owners of this website don’t care about their customers.
Since this membership is sold through Clickbank, there is an alternative way to reach the owners of this site. I decided to contact them through Clickbank so that I could give a conclusion to this review. It could be that the owners of the site are just updating a few things and perhaps the glitches may well be solved very quickly.
I’ll give you an update on my progress as soon as I hear back from IDplr support!
UPDATE: Several Days Later…
Well, I just wanted to return to conclude this review. I wish that I could tell you that everything turned out well and that all is now working. Unfortunately, I can’t do that!
Since contacting Clickbank with my message I have received no response. I even gave IDplr support some extra time to get back to me. In fact, I gave IDplr almost a week to get back to me.
In my opinion customer support is one thing that should be really good with a service like this. But since the main website will not let you send a support ticket and as we got no response from customer support through Clickbank, I can only assume one thing. IDplr really doesn’t care about their customers.
The only good thing about this is the fact that you can always get your money back through Clickbank. Although Clickbank might have more than a few dodgy products for sale, they are very good at refunds. And with a service like IDplr, they’ll need to be good at refunds!
I’m getting my money back and I would suggest that you do the same.
Whats The Alternative To Creating Content With PLR?
PLR content has its place in the internet marketing world but nothing beats unique content. If you would like an alternative to using PLR content, then I highly suggest that you take a look at my Rytr Review. This article will show you how you can produce content A.I. technology.

Cons

Gosh… you saved me an $89 Gold membership! Was just about to push the button when I decided to look at reviews first. So glad I did. Companies need to be reminded that they MUST follow-through with excellent product and website quality, customer service and follow-through. If not, consumers will start asking around. With this consumer, they just lost a paying customer. How many more before they figure it out?
Hey Dana. Glad to help! Quite right, product creators need to learn to make good products that actually do what they are supposed to. $89 is a great saving! My advice would be to spend your money on something less risky than PLR. Creating your own content is always the best way to go.
Thank you that just saved me a few quid, unbelievable!!
No problem, glad to help Tony!
Hello Andrew, thanks for sharing such a valuable content with us!
My pleasure Subin! I’m pleased to help.
Great post. This is a great IDplr Review! Thanks for the information.
No problem Ian! Glad you found the information helpful.
I’m also stuck now what fill in the captcha
And must fill it up to upload my product To IDplr
someone knows what needs to be filled?
Thanks.
Hi there. As you can see from my IDplr review, I tried to contact support with regards to this issue. It’s definitely not you doing something wrong, its the site that doesn’t work properly. And that isn’t the only thing that isn’t working as it should! After trying to make contact with the people behind IDplr, I received no response. Even the “contact us” form doesn’t work! In my opinion the owners of this membership are happy to take peoples money without giving them what is supposed to be in the membership.
Perhaps when the site was first built everything was working fine, but now its far from it. Like yourself, I wanted to submit an ebook to the site, but that was not to be!
You could try to contact the owners of the site just like I did. But I wouldn’t be surprised if you don’t get a response. Other than that, I would just go and get yourself a full refund from Clickbank. There should be no issue with you getting your money back so long as you are within the 60 days refund period.
Please feel free to let us know how you get on.
Take care,
Andrew
Well I must say that I am glad I found your review because i was all set to buy into this company, like you said it seemed very impressive. But thanks to your review, I won’t go there. Could you recommend a site that is good with good content and good support. Thanks again for your time.
Hi there Donald.
Thanks for contacting me. I’m pleased to hear that you found my IDplr review helpful.
Yes, it was quite disappointing to find that this product was so poorly managed. I hope that one day the creators of the site might get everything sorted and ask me to re-review the membership. Anyway, with regards to your question…
To be completely honest IDplr was only the second PLR membership site that I have reviewed. Both of the sites that I looked at turned out to be pretty bad, so unfortunately I don’t have a recommendation at this time. However, what I would say is that you are always best to join a membership that comes with some sort of money back guarantee. That way you can always get your money back if the site turns out to be not so great.
Hope that helps!
Andrew
Thank you Andrew, for this reply. What was the other site? I’m considering PLRme for articles only, but don’t know enough about PLR to determine if I should enter a credit based monthly membership. Any feedback on this route??
Hi Stacy. The other PLR site that I looked at was the PLR Store, although it was a long time ago now. My personal opinion on PLR after looking into it a little over the years is that it can be very hit and miss. You might have a great experience with PLR Me and I hope you do. But what I have found is that PLR articles are hardly ever very good quality. I don’t want to publish anything that is poorly written, so would spend a lot of time going through the article, correcting errors and changing the bits that I don’t like. To be honest its sometimes faster to write your own stuff. I know it seems like a great shortcut, but that’s not always the case. On saying that I don’t have any experience of PLR Me, they might have really good content.
But one other thing to keep in mind is the fact that many other people will also have purchased the same PLR material. If you are thinking of publishing PLR articles onto your website or blog, its not always a good idea unless you are changing them quite a bit. Google is not on duplicate content, so don’t expect to rank well with PLR articles.
If you do decide to go further into PLR, please feel free to let us know how you progress.
