Plagiarism is there. It has always existed and will be there in the future. And if your text began to multiply on the Internet, this means not only that the network “is full of bad people”, but also that your thoughts are interesting and valuable. It is clear that this understanding does not bring much of a relief, especially considering that all the value and usefulness comes into the world under a false name. It’s a shame. But is there any way to keep a lid on plagiarists? Probably not. However, if your content is really valuable to you and you are going to fight for it, then at a certain extent of patience and perseverance you can come to certain results. Checking for plagiarismBefore you start a war you need to know that someone steals your work. There are lots of ways (including specialized online services, software, independent search in the search engines) to check for text plagiarism. I’m not going to list them. It is rather easy to find these services in the network. I personally use COPYSCAPE, but cannot say that they are the greatest. But even before you start the procedure, it would makes sense “to take preventive measures.” It sounds naive at first glance, but still; do not forget to hang in the footer of some anti-plagiarism banner and copyright note. Plagiarism - is the reflection of the human factor, so let this factor be taken into account. First there are a large number of people who will consider a simple and stop, and this is not a small percentage of Internet users. Secondly, if your resource is located in a jurisdiction with developed laws regarding copyright, such a reference is an absolute must for a court. After setting up the attributes of your possession, you can start monitoring. Using one of the services you suddenly discover a significant number of copies of your source in the network. If your resource is news or articles, this situation is - a necessary evil. Try contacting the web master with the requirement to establish a link back to your resource (if it is acceptable to you) or remove a page. Trackback clearly indicates a search engine, which of the pages is original. If our webmaster-plagiarist does not respond, then we can go back to its host (which can yield results only if the hosting company is located in the country with the current law on copyright protection), to write angry letters to Yahoo, MSN and Google (which, in principle, if you confirm your ownership can help). Confirming your copyrightVery complex procedure in the network … The only meaningful argument can be your text cache copy date by search engines. But what if the plagiarist is technologically sufficient enough to have his pages indexed faster than yours are indexed? In principle, the solution is: Regardless of what type of a website you have, use ping engines, similar to those that blogs use. This is - almost a hundred percent guarantee that the mention of your article will be primarily from your own site.

Collective efforts are always more effective. "Check for plagiarism" - related articles:
