    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, so pardon me.

    How do you check an article using copyscape? From what i see, they need you to post a URL. Do you have to put the article on a website or something? Thanks.

    If you're using the free one, you have to upload or post your articles somewhere before you can check it using Copyscape as you need to enter the URL where the articles are.

    But if you purchasing the Copyscape Premium, you can check your articles either by entering the URL just like above or you can paste the articles in a textbox and Copyscape will check for uniqueness inside your account.

    I think OP is not aware much about copyscape that means he want to use it free as of now so no choice left for him. He needs to upload his article somewhere and then entering that url in copyscape to check that.

    DON.

    1. Make a blogger.com account
    2. Create a blog
    3. Go to settings and make sure your blog is not listed on directory and search engines.
    4. Post the article as a blog post
    5. Go to copyscape.com
    6. Enter your blog address
    7. Here you go. No results found!?
    8. Delete the post from blogger now!

    Do not forget that using copyscape for free, one can only review 5 articles in a month.
    But if you are looking to check greater number of articles....you will be required to repeat all these steps, afresh...once again! :eek:
