As I am beginning to blog more often, I’ve wondered about the content I share and whether or not it’s copywritten. Isn’t it funny how you think of something, or you may have been talking to someone about a particular subject, and at that very moment… Bam! a piece of information lands before you? Well, that happened to me while I was searching for information on a particular subject.
I came across a slideshow presentation prepared by Hubspot entitled, “Are People Stealing Your Content? How (and When) to Fight Back.” This is a very informative presentation and answered my question – is my content copywritten? – Yes, as they indicate in one of their slides – my blogs are covered under the Copyright Law.
If you are starting to blog, you should take time to read through Hubspot’s presentation. It will give you a better understanding of how to handle “content thieves” should your content be “stolen” and used.
