Interesting question about copying content from Facebook.

I published an article on Facebook and I got many responses by friends.
I wonder, if I post those responses in my article will it be considered as a unique content or a duplicate ? will it help the SEO of my article ?
The problem is I know for sure that Google can track those responses (take a look on http://www.google.com/realtime)

 

Don't copy them, they don't have any benefit.

 

They question is if it can be considered as duplicate content and actually hurts your site ?

 

Dont copy the content from any other site. Because it is treated as forgery site and have more chances to penalty by search engines. use the following method for finding the copy writing content in google "your content". some body use your content if the results have more than one results.

take it another way.. You publish your small article first on your site and then share it on Facebook with some copied content or suppose someone else do same with your article and share it on Facebook with the link back to your blog.. It is bad? I think it is better way to promote.

 

The answer is NO. Dont try to copy the content from any other article or even from the comments to any blog article. If you wanna do, just try to spin it and then post and check in copyscape. If in copyscape it says copied from the source you got, then just delet it
My recommendation dont copy

 

Do it other way publish articles on your blog and set it to auto post to Facebook using free service like http://app.dlvr.it

 

Do not copy from anywhere, duplicate contents may penalize your website.

 

Don't copy it, just write it differently with your own words and opinions that will make it unique

 

Why don't you just write another new article?? Not that hard

 

I dont have a strong idea about copyright issues over facebook but it is your article, your friends and your account then I dont think there will be a problem.

 

The content from comments can be mentioned in the article by proper annotations without any risk of ‘getting caught for duplicate content’.

Even if Google flags your content as duplicate.... In my opinion... Google only stacks duplicate results and represents all copies as ONE. Since you are the one who owns both the copies (on website or on FB)...traffic will flow to you in anycase.

You just make sure your website and facebook profile is well connected so that people can easily switch from one to other... and Google knows that you are the same guy (Yep... Google can see that since Caffeine update)
