Is it good copying content. can any one get PR by copying content?
say one bloggers is copying content from another blogger. and if the 2nd blogger content get cached before the original blogger content then how google will track this who is original and who is duplicate.

need your suggestions..

 

Basically whoever gets indexed first is the original content creator in the eyes of Google

 

Actually that's not true. It's the page that Google considers to be the most authoritative that will get the credit.

I have a fan site for a popular niche game that's been around for over 25 years now -- I once copied the content from the official site (without permission no less!!!) and slapped it up on the fan site as a resource for those fans. But since I divided the content over multiple pages (it was all on one page), Google picked it up and quickly dumped the official site's content from its index.

Both sites still exist, and the exact same content is still on bofadem, but I'm the one getting credit (and #1 rankings) for those pages and the keywords they target.

 

i'm agree with the previous poster. Google pay much more attention to authority (page and whole domain).
Page with copy-pasted article with pr 5 will not get supplemental, while pr 1 page with original content will (if domains trust level is equal)

 

i did not know it was more about Authority.
I am learning at the moment about link building and SEO and i was told you 'must' have original in all pages and you get into trouble for Plagiarising.

just wondering then, if you have the original content about something and someone copies it and they get cached could you complain to Google or will the decision be final?

 

Thanks for all your replies.

 

Written content plays a vital role in the ranking of a website. High quality content will bring your website higher rankings, more traffic, and greater popularity. Search engines actually prefer sites with that display quality content.

SEO Content Writing (also referred to as SEO Copy Writing) involves the process of integrating keywords and informative phrases into the actual content of your website.

 

If so, when i created a unique content (by myself) and publish it in my PR1 website, and at the same time, it was copied by other and paste into a PR5 website, that content will be considered COPY CONTENT published in my website? I think your statement is not true....

 

That's one explanation of why there are so many copy sites.

 

Google pays much more attention to relevancy and thematic contents.

If you copy an article to your site that is relevant to that article, say for example exercise tips from a sports site and your site is about fitness and exercise... google will tend to give weight to your site as relevant to the content you are posting, and at the same time think of the article at the sports site as the copy.

This called thematic and relevant content.

 

I believe it is not about PR.. but relevancy. Search engines now a days are more concerned about relevancy and relevancy alone. If your content is relevant to your domain name.

 

I also believe that Google would consider articles which are relevant to the site.. Thus, copying might be allowed in the eyes of Google.. However, you have to take the risk of being charged with plagiarism in the future if you do copy contents of others..

 

I was under the impression that the first to get indexed was seen as the original by Google. If it is more to do with page ranking, what prevents a higher page ranked site from copying new contwnt from a lower page ranked site?
Surely that indexed by google fist is the origninal....

 

An eye opener. I've got a site which got NOTHING to do with the content that's on it. The site is 5yrs old. With this site I scrape content from directories. I make like $50 p/d with this site. So, in conclusion, I don't believe sh*tty stuff!!

 

From what i have seen both vstar and Dan Schulz are correct.

You see if you post something first, you get indexed first and get some links too you are considered from google to be the writer. Now if CNN desides to copy your article and post it on their site, you understand that your page will no longer be visible on the search results.

It depends on the authority that the guy who copypastes the content.Perhaps the blog of Dan Schulz is considered very important and thus when he made that post it lead to removal of the official page.

by the way Dan, will you post something on your site for me?

 

hey puppetguy, $50 p/d from a site where the content is nothing to do with the site?
Using Adsnese? CPA? Or is the copied content on pages other than your sales/download page for your product?

 

Well, I'm using ONLY adsense. The site's index page ranks PR5, some other pages on the site rank PR4, PR3. I'm NOT going to tell what this specific site is about, but I do NOT sell anything from it. It's mostly scraped content. Around 40 000 pages indexed. There are times when more pages are indexed, then I make more.

 

I think it's best just to avoid having the same content on more than one site. It's too risky and you can't really predict whether Google will penalize you for it or not.

The content isn't on my blog. It's on another Web site with its own community forum.

Uh, no. But I do have a list of kick arse free software for Windows series coming up. I'm not sure whether I should start with utilities or security. Leaning towards the latter.

 

I agree with Dan Schulz and Google pays more attention to the most authoritative page.
