SEO and copyright
As a part of the initial audit, I do recommend to run a short test on any content you own. It is a free way to make sure your website or other landing is unique and has the best benchmark possible.
Reminder: benchmark is a rate/ score you get in the digital world. The highest rate is a dominant page in any search through any platform.
I don't have to mention that this a chance to find out if your property (Intelectual property) was stolen and used without permission or intense. It is not about SEO but about your business control.
How to check authentic text for authors rights:
- Identify text, idea, visual graphics or audio file/pice you would like to check.
- Search with any search engine.
- Check with one of the attached links.
All publishers/bloggers/experts and authors who wish to increase their understanding of how to manage intellectual property rights in a business context are welcome to browse.

Protect your property, respect the intellectual property of others.
What is copyright? @wikipedia
"Copyright is a property right, which exists to protect the expression of ideas and the use of works by authors and publishers of various types of works, including literary (e.g. books, newspapers, magazines, and journals), artistic works (including photographs, paintings, sculptures, diagrams), musical works, sound recordings, films and broadcasts."
Copyright is one more kind of property - intellectual property (IP).
What are the authors’ rights? @wikipedia
"Authors’ rights" is generally used in civil law countries. Authors’ rights belong to the author of a literary or artistic work and are composed of economic and moral rights."
What is the purpose of copyright/authors’rights?
The purpose of copyright and authors’ rights is to provide protection for authors and publishers, another word to get control over any decision related to that property. This right of determination allows inter alia to be rewarded for their skill and investment in producing their works.
The digital world is an essential part of any business that is why your IP should be protected here, and safe even more in the offline world.
So what do you control over, what is your exclusive right to?
-authorize or prohibit any reproduction, recreation, duplication or copy of you work (partial or the whole version)
-authorize or prohibit any communication to the public of their works, by wire or wireless means, including the making available to the public of their works in such a way that members of the public may access them from a place and at a time individually chosen by them. @wikipedia
There are also author moral rights which are personal rights and cannot be transferred. Prohibit stilling your creative identity as an author.
How do you get copyright/authors’ rights protection?
Copyright/authors’ rights protection is granted automatically when an original idea is recorded either in writing or in another perceptible form (talk to Google or any other verbal recorder it is always easy to note your ideas).
What does the formula “all rights reserved” mean?
Although this formula is not a formal condition for copyright/authors’ rights protection, it allows its user, the author or the rightsholder, to ascertain that he/she holds all the rights provided by copyright/authors’ rights law, such as reproduction, making available, communication to the public, moral rights and that this person/entity should be asked before using the work. In the digital world, it is polite to mention your source of information besides putting the author's name in media.
Does it ever expire, copyright protection?
71 years is the longest period. It depends on the country and jurisdiction. Digital news from yesterday is old and outdated however it doesn't mean you can borrow and repost them with no permission.
For digital copyright/authors’ rights material, it is easier than ever to get a license to use the protected content, for example having "like" and "share" button means you agree to forward the content (with your name been mentioned).
Less and fewer sites that are not indexed in search engines can be reproduced in their texts without the risk of being caught in plagiarism. Another thing is that to find valuable information that was not indexed by search engines, you can only in closed professional forums.
There are plenty free of charge automated solutions offering text content, make sure you use them correctly. The algorithm compares all texts and related themes on the web, preparing your solution. Yes, the computer can fill in the content for you. I do encourage to use included logics checking the punctuation, grammar, and test for the text value (vocabulary). Those tools you can find in any web site constructor (Google website/ Wix/ Wordpress).
Good luck
