Repurpose/reuse blog content - email address to make available for this

[BobGW]

Hi,

From Rand's recent Whiteboard Friday, I learned this:

"Have right on the blog page the email address to use if they want to repurpose/reuse the content. That way if someone wants to give us a backlink and quote/reference our blog, they have an easy way to get permission."

My question is, what do I say with the email address when I list our contact email? Something like

1. Just list the email address

2. "To reuse/repurpose our content, please contact adress@email.com."

or something else?

First thing, keep it simple and easy to use otherwise people won't use it.

probably add to your contact page as well.

If you wish to use our content or quote a piece, please email email@domain.com.

Or:

Would you like to quote or reuse our content for Free, please email: email@domain.com.

assuming you are not wanting to charge for it.

hope that's hopefully
