How to check contents with CopyScape easily and effectively

Note: This only works if you have a real IP.

A Common Scenario: You need to check an article that you are submitting to your client. You post it in a wordpress blog and search for matches. What? You find matches but completely different things. You search with contents on Hilary Duff and see a content on cowdung has a match. Actually the tags are the main problem.

Solution: All you have to do is download HFS, search google for HFS. Open notepad, paste the content, use <br /> tag for line breaks. Save as something.html. Add it to HFS, copy url address and paste the address to copyscape. Voila, perfect result!

Buy Copyscape Premium. It costs only $10 and you get to check 200 articles.
How to Use Copyscape Premium:
Paste the title of the article in the Enter article title section and then paste the main body of the article or URL in Paste text or URL section.
The result obtained is mostly accurate.(100% correct so far I've seen)

 

You submitted article, blog and forum on your site first check the content. copy this content and paste the search engine then match the content. the content is match
any document then this post is copy paste. this is a one type to check the content with CopyScape.

 

copyscape is useful for detecting plagiarism. Aside form that (for example, to try and determine uniqueness) it's totally useless.

 

You can also grab an extract from the article and search the text inside quotes using google.

 

That doesn't work in case of rewriting.

 

Well how about writing your own articles? Problem solved.

 

I was talking from the buyer point of view.

 

Can't imagine too many buyers would be happy if they knew that you post the article they paid you for on your own site first. Blogs get indexed crazy fast. Once Google found the article it would be worth tremendously less that whatever you were charging for it.

The fallacy of CopyScape is that it only checks online materials. A good example was an aquarium site offered for sale here on DP. It had great content and pictures - too good for the price. I picked a few articles at random and found a match - a paragraph-long excerpt from a book on Amazon. Running CopyScape on the other pages would have come out clean.

Personally, I am offended by a client who insists on using CopyScape. It starts out the client/provider relationship on the basis of distrust - they are essentially calling you a thief until proven innocent.

 

Thanks for sharing this good idea on forum post.

 

I woul like for someone at odesk to make me writing reviews. Is there a software for checking CopyScape?

Thank you

 

Yeah, Copyscape is already very cheap.
