I have noticed users have been using the YouTube videos of others on their webpages. Isn't that like stealing someone elses content or does it not really matter?
They would not put a share button on u-tube if they did not want anyone to share a video on u-tube
We are content curators as well as content creators

Hi there,
it depends if the author/creator of the video allows sharing. Most of the videos on YouTube are free to be shared via social media, email and even to embed in a website.
As long as there's a button called "Share" and you get options to do so when you click on it, it's totally ok to use the video or even embed in your website.
If there's no "Share" button, then you can't use it because the author/creator doesn't allow sharing.
Hope this helps.
I'm not an expert but from what I gather I don't think so. I have seen videos on people's sites that they have not created. YouTube lets you share videos that the creator has set to public. It may be a good idea to give credit to the creator of the video by mentioning their name and providing a link to their YouTube channel (assuming its a YouTube video).
It's a nice gesture to give credit to the creator but it's not really necessary, people can easily watch the video on YouTube itself and see who created it.
I would LOVE for people to use the YouTube video's I've created on their sites. Even if I never made a dime from it, I'd be happy to know that someone benefited from my work:)
YouTube publishers have the option to make their videos available to share or not to share. If the share icon is present below the subscribe button, you can share it on your site.

Is it frowned upon to use others videos on your page?

In a way, we are helping them get more viewers on their video and I agree with Barry, they would have locked their videos if they didn't want to to share it in the first place. it's win-win situation brah

Hey I've placed code in the sidebar.php of the css file in my editor for the hiero theme, how will I know if I did it correctly? Do I have to wait?
I've checked your site and can't see an Adsense block. Is there a reason for doing through the php file and not using a text widget?
I found some directions on a wordpress forum and thats what someone said to do.. would it still work through the php file or should i try instead to use the widget and delete the code I put in?
I tried to use the widget now. Google says Ad box will be blank until it appears and I guess it is supposed to blend into the site, so I guess their is no real way to tell?
Much easier to add a text widget and put the code in there. The code you've put in the php file didn't work as there's no ad showing so I'd just delete it.
You'll have a blank square initially till Google populates it but if you let me know when you've done it I'll check it for you.

For each of my posts I have done keyword research and have based them around "low hanging keywords". Though, are these really free from as much competition as I think they are.. Se

Hey, Steve! Your post was helpful, but than again it is a little tough to understand that people will be searching using quotations
They won't and it doesn't mater. Optimized results are what you're competing with and using quotes is what shows "optimized" pages.

I was pretty proud with the amount of traffic I had been receiving with a starting website getting 217 new sessions in a week. Though under further evaluation, come to find out
Not to worry you are well protected by Wa.
You can block it if you want to just block this ip address range http://38.99.82.0 - 255
Or you can block it as referral spam here is a training Google Analytics Referral Spam And How To Get Rid Of It
Has anyone else had traffic from weird sources?
