Google Improves Copyright Protection for Webmasters

Article Written By: SEO-Company

Google has recently shed some light on the Internet by posting on article that pertains to duplicate content and what it means to webmasters. There has been some confusion on the Internet regarding what duplicate content really means and how it can affect your website in a positive or negative manner.

When we talk about duplicate content we really are talking about on site duplicate content. For example, Google wants to see a website that has unique and different content on all of its pages. This tells Google that they are looking at, indexing and displaying a valuable site for their search engines users.

For example if your website has the same text matter, meta tags, alt tags on all of its pages then Google thinks that your site is either spammy or isnt a valuable resource, therefore they will not rank your site as high as it could have been ranked with unique content on all of its pages.

A great way to look at your website to see if it has duplicate content is to go to Google.com and search

site:www.mydomain.com

This will display all of your website pages in the way that Google views them. Take a look at each page and check them to see if they are exactly the same or way to similar to the other pages. If they look very similar to you or even identical then you should edit these pages instantly.

One last thing that comes to mind is that you can also log into Google webmaster tools if you have an account then go to Diagnostics->HTML Suggestions-> Duplicate title tags

The other type of duplicate content that Google is looking at is content that has been borrowed from your website and displayed on another website. There are 2 main reasons why this may happen.

1.) Someone is blatantly stealing your content and taking credit for is

2.) You are syndicating content on your website for other website to use for their own purposes.

A great tool to use in order to find out if your content has been stolen by another website is http://copyscape.com/

If you find that someone is copying your content without your consent then you can contact them and ask for them to have it removed.

If you want to completely avoid others taking your content and getting all of the credit for it you can...

1.) Add a few anchors pointing back to your website in your article. See: "SEO Article Writing"

2.) If you are syndicating your content VIA RSS feeds or doing article submissions, you can alter your text matter just enough so that the original article is pointing and coming from your website. This way other websites that are borrowing your content do not rank higher than you for your own article / content.
