I have found Copyscape invaluable for finding duplicate content that has been lifted from my site and use it on a regular basis. I also use Article Checker as well.

I’m concerned about duplicate content within one of our sites (not a blog), obviously all pages are more or less related to the same subject and have many similarities, yet they are different for the users. I haven’t seen it do anything negative (yet anyway) to the site, but now I’m wondering if I should start adding no index on some of the pages.

I still find this topic to be somewhat questionable. There are still some that say it may not be all true. But why take a a chance? Original content will add value to your website.

Your best bet is to do some searches for your keyword and see if any article sites show up. If you’re very niche look for other keywords. If the site shows you up know it isn’t banned, it has reasonable authority. This doesn’t mean it passes link juice but you should submit anyway.

Duplicate content-what a problem for guys like myself who are not very good at blogging and even like it less,to be able to come up with my own content it’s like trying to reinvent the wheel.So were does a person find the information on those affiliate products we are marketing, do I go out and buy every item I am selling heck I will be in the poor house.

It’s about time someone is doing something about plagiarism. Thanks for letting me know about these sites.

In regards to the duplicate content part of this blog post, I personally use the http://www.copygator.com website to find and stop duplicate content:

1. it’s automated and brings me results instead of me searching for duplicated content. All i had to do was submit my feed and it started monitoring my feed showing me who’s republished my articles on the web.

2. i get notified by email so it contacts me when it finds copies of my articles online.

3. i use their image badge feature to alert me directly on my website when my content is being lifted.

4. it’s a free service as opposed the “per page” cost of copyscape/copysentry.
