Hi Everyone, i have hired freelancer to write some articles for my new web site, after checking on copyscape.com and found out they're all around 50 - 60% matched words with some web site. just need some advices on that please. thank you for your help.
Don't buy this articles! Your article should at least be 75% original content or Google is going to treat your article as duplicated content.
Some expressions can be the same, but 50-60% sounds a lot. Have you checked if it's only words or whole sentences?
Sounds like you've got some (auto) spun articles. Either way, stay away from such content. Even if you lost a few bucks, don't be a fool and don't loose the authority of your baby (website).
Tell him to rewrite sentences again. Use Synonyms to replace common words. Just remember, you are paying the person for plagiarism free content, so you better get it.
Content should be high quality like Ezine articles, Forbes sites have because these are professional sites.
Don't use that article on your website. Google may penalize your site if duplicate content found on your web-pages.
