Enter your article or blog post title into Google search, without quotes and see what other pages come up. You might think you have an original idea, but there's a good chance your article has already been published in one form or another online before. Look at what articles are already out there and just try to cover another facet of the same topic, rather than covering the same information again in new words.

Original content is a article/content which you don't find it on google or copyspace except in your site. It is like a prime number, which is found only in your blog or site but no where else.

Search engines rank your website according to the relevance of content put on your site. That's why it is so important to put original content in your web pages. If you do not update your content every few months, users will loose interest in your site.


Of course, there will always be some content that Google calls ever green, meaning it's fresh even years from now and doesn't need updating. But typically, most sites/pages rank higher in Google with regular updating. It doesn't hurt to occasionally add an update at the end of an older blog article or static HTML page, just so the search engines have something new to index.

Adding your own personal side to a story I feel is making original content. Almost everything someone posts is simply something that has already been posted online at some point, it's how interesting you made your content to be, as well as your own personal side of the content. Anyone can post generic content, but for originality you have to put it in your own words, and create something that is the same concept, but a different feel behind the content.


Adding your own opinion or review of a situation or product can make the content more original and unique.

Hi,

Search engines rank your website according to the relevance of content put on your site. That's why it is so important to put original content in your web pages. If you do not update your content every few months, users will loose interest in your site. If you change, adapt or improve your content on a regular base, the search engine spiders will crawl through your content more often and place you among the top search results.

Original content is content which you have written yourself, there is your own unique ideas, your writing skills and that content can't be found in search index until you publish the content on your website or other web 2.0 sites.

What is your view on original content? How do you know your content or site articles are original and not just similar to what other sites offer?

You can run checks on them to make sure that they are original. Never copy word for word and always try to be original when you are writing.

I agree that checks should be run on things to make sure that they are not copying. You would not want to not run this and publish something online and then have the search engine say it was duplicate content.

No you should never copy word for word unless you are siting works. This is important to do if you must quote someone.

Anyone can post generic content, but for originality you have to put it in your own words, and create something that is the same concept, but a different feel behind the content.


You can personalize a product by simply trying it out and reviewing it and giving your own personal experience. This will enhance your review or post and make it more unique than offering a bland third person point of view.

But if you do copy word for word, then wont copyscape pick up on that?

Original contents are the contents that you wrote yourself or purchased from a writer and you have rights to use in your own ways. There are lots of tools to check whether the content is original or not. Copyscape is one of the good tools to find out whether the content is original or not.

Original content is an article or paragraph that is unique, not copied from another website. When you post a copied content from another website, it can definitely harm your website regarding the SEO capability. That’s why it is advised to post only original contents just to be sure that you will not have duplicate contents in your website. And being original, it is written by you or by your hired person.
