Authoring & Writing Content
Updated

Just checking opinion's on my content I write here if I place it on my site and its by me I should have no problem with duplicate content right.

I do not have time to read the comments below to see if this was answered.
It is for sure duplicate content if it was published here and then again on your site.
I would highly recommend that you do not do this. :)

Ty shawn Ill Fix it.

Looking at all the post it looks like it needs changed up.

Yep I reckon so Harry live and learn good stuff. Hope all is going good with your build. Thanks for droping in J B

Changing it up would be best, Google will just choose which one to rank higher, so if its ranked higher here instead of your site it doesn't do your site much good. :))

I have to figure out how to find the ranking of a artical Thank you J B

Can I just make that post private or should I delete it all together?
On my site I added two of my blogs from here I went over and made them private?

I would say it would only be private from viewers but not the search that Google performs.

I figured your right. I deleted it just the same Thank You J B

No problem, you know where there at...Lol. :))

You have to change it up. Content can be the same,but it has to be written in a different way. I believe someone told me once that it has to be at least 70% different (original). I post links on my Facebook page to articles on my blog. Does that help?

Thank you, yes its the first time I have heard the 70% ty again J B

Hi Jeff, as soon as you make a post Google indexes it in search engines. I just checked this by bringing up a new screen, copying your post & pasting it to the search bar. That showed your post done 7 hours ago. I clicked on that link & it brought me back to your post. If a non-member clicks on your post, they will be sent to the WA sign-up screen, not your post. If they sign up for WA YOU will get credit for it.
I hopes this clarifies things for you & others who are confused about this issue. :-) Jon

Thank you jonw That clears up some questions as why to even post at WA Thanks again J B

Does it then take them to the post? or do you know.

Google takes so many factors under consideration, I don't know them all, not even close. I do know that social sharing is one very important factor though, that's here & all social networks. :-) Jon

I have to get to the bottom of this Discussion before I loose my privileges if I haven't already. I could see if it was some one Else's content. But its my content.

I agree, there should not be a problem if you are the original author.

I think your right I just wonder how Google sees it.

Just to update our comment here we would agree with Rohan (TheHammer) below.

Thank you I would never do that Ty again J B

Rules 2 & 3 of WA guidelines:
2. No copied content allowed to be posted here at Wealthy Affiliate. This content will be immediately removed and you will lose posting privileges.
3. Do not copy content from WA and post it somewhere else on the Internet. This includes copying your own blog content and putting it on your website.

Wow, that is good to know. I am glad I saw this post.
Thanks for the info.

it is my content I wrote here at WA there for I should be able to copy my content. and add it to my site. tell me if I'm wrong

Why is that a problem It is my content I wrote it Its all from my mind no one has a right to it but me I think.

Or is what your saying WA owns my content because I posted it here?

It is not about not having ownership Jeff :) You can copy your content here and paste it on your site if you wish as much as you like. The advice not to comes from a place that Google mind not like this and think you trying to cheat the system.

Personally I would write a new post on my site and then link to the post in WA from there. This does 2 things for me. It hads value to my site with the backlinking and it will be good for me on Google because then I have two pieces of original content.

How would I go about doing this? Linking the two?

I think Google better figure out who creates the content, They better get smarter if they tag me because I share my content that is related to my name where ever I share it period. Its all mine they should have no problem with it. If they do more power to them. Thanks for the feed back Hammer J B

They will know who you are and that you're the content creator and owner. It is not about that... It is about saying the same thing over and over and over. You will probably rank better by not copy and pasting your content here and there.

They are not my rules. Search engines frown on duplicate copy and only give copy to the first post. Therefore you are defeating your purpose. I post an abstract of my article on my blog with a link to the WA article if they want to read more. WA is a great back link because it is so active, so I get traffic to my post and a higher ranking. Some of the traffic that goes from my post to my article on WA will join WA. It is a total win.

Go to the top of you post. Click on affiliate and it will give you a link. Use that link on your website or in social media to link to your article. The link will be tagged to you with you ID so anyone who comes to WA from your link will be in you downline if they join WA.

O k that makes sence Ty for the advice JB

Pleasure bro! :)

I have never copied content and brought it here. That second part makes no sense. Seeing how Kyle says we can use WA content made for our websites and such, Prime example the privacy policy page> we change it some, but it is still copied content am I right?

Yes the privacy policy is copied content however the page is not indexed to Google or at least it shouldn't be included in your site map. There are lesson in the course where Kyle explains it as well.

Because it is not part of the site map, Google will not see it and therefore it we don't get penalised for having duplicate content.

My understanding when Kyle says we can use the content here on WA he means that we can link to it and I doubt he is referring to use the content as duplicated content on our website.

O k That makes sense but I do believe he has created content that others can use other then links. But all that said how about the pics I can capture some of the pics here lets say the three wealthy affiliate boxes with different pics in them side by side. I can use some of those right. Google does not spider or crawl pics do they ? I do have the disable social function checked on my privacy policy page. I hope that's all it takes. Id have to go back through the training to find where he said that ,they had content if people were having a hard time with it. I fixed the duplicate content on my site. I will just link them from within my new posts Thanks again J B.

Well believe it or not the light bulb just went off. Ty I can add my content to my site without worrying about Google and the duplicate rule the content. that I have created here if I share it on my other sites. all I have to do is the same as the privacy policy disable Disable Google Analytics and Disable on this page/post .This way my visitors can just read my content. I can link some as well. Before I do this I will need to check and make sure it will not violate the rules here at W A as the gentleman above mentioned. I bought all the . com.net info and org for my domain. I really wanted to keep the same info for the different sites. That's where I have been going with all this. some original and some of my valuable content shared within the sites. Ideas are always welcome. J B

Sounds like an option! Nice one bro! You always redirect your other sites .net .org etc to your .com site?

I was wondering if that was possible

Wonder no more... It is possible ;) Look for a re-direct setting in the back office of where you got your domain from.

Will Do Thank you very much

You're welcome my friend!

It worked thanks for the direction. JB

Excellent! Very happy to hear that. Pleasure bro!

I see that this is a factor with your ranking. I guess I missed the discussion board.

Hi. If you would like to create a new blog, go into your picture icon at the upper right. You would click on your profile, and at the top of the screen is a blue box that says "blogs." That is one way to create a discussion.

Is that what you were after?

Michelle

no not really I was looking at the rank chart and it said creating blogs which I do and it also said creating discussions no biggy just trying to figur that ranking system down. seems like the more active I am the lower it gets. thank you

I think discussions just means if you ask questions or others ask questions and you are a part of it, that helps your rank. Here is what Carson said about rank:

Here are some ways to improve your Rank:

• Ask questions
• Answer questions
• Create blog posts
• Create and reply to Classroom discussions
• Create training
• Hang out in live chat
• Referring others to WA
• Sharing WA
• Being Premium (premium members get a bump in rank)

In other words, engage in Wealthy Affiliate.

That's all I've got! :)

when I became a premium member I lost rank I was way up around 4000 now im down to 611 crazy any way your right you have to ask a question. and I have only ask one before this one thats why that box is so low. Thank you for your time you have a great night.

Wait! You're looking at it backwards. Your number is falling because your rank is getting better. How's that for making sense? :) You're not losing rank, you're gaining rank. Pat yourself on the back, you've come a long ways!

O k if that's the way it works that makes sense. I thought I was doing something wrong. Thank you for clearing that up for me J B
