Plagiarism - Tools Do Not Tell Source of Dulpication

[Sequelmed]

Hi There,

To check if content on my site is plagiarized or not, i copy it from my site and then paste the text in tools available online. They highlight the green text as UNIQUE and in red as PLAGIARIZED. When I click the plagiarized content to see which OTHER SITE is using the same content as that of mine, it leads me to the pages of my own site. I am confused on this. Where is the other site.

Can somebody help how to find the other sites online that have similar content as that of mine. Or there is some fault in my understanding??

Thanks

One way to find where your content is being duplicated elsewhere is to take the text your tools identified as plagiarized, and search for it in Google. You'll want the term bound by quotation marks to get results containing the unbroken passage. Here's an example: https://www.google.com/search?q=%22john+jacob+jingleheimer+schmidt%2C+his+name%22&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8

Hi Tavneer,

Good question, unfortunately Google will not tell you all duplicates. You need to use a tool for that.

My recommendations is to use the CopyScape tool, its has free service for samples, but I do recommend you get the premium which is incredibly cheap. Should buy credits and then do the following:

1. Get a list of all your website's URLs (you can use any method you like. i usually search for site:mydomain.com in Google and export them with SEO Quake plugin/extension on Chrome)
2. Go to bulk check on CopyScape
3. Add all your URLs in there
4. Process the bulk search
5. Wait few seconds and you will have a list of all duplicates on external websites, with average percentage.

I hope this helps.
