It is important to learn about this and pay attention to it if you want your website to have long lasting success.

What is plagiarism?

What do you do when you are asked to write certain articles? You will go to Google and search about them. If you are enthusiastic about writing articles then you would write them on your own. But if you are not enthusiastic then you would copy it from the internet or maybe from some book. When you copy some materiel which is available on any other source, then it is called plagiarism. Articles which are copied word to word from internet are called plagiarized articles.

Why write your own articles?

Many people think plagiarism as only copying the work of someone else or borrowing their work and ideas. But in the real sense plagiarism is a serious offense. As per the Webster online dictionaryplagiarism means to steal and pass the ideas ad words of another as your own. It means to use someone else’s production as your own by giving credit for it. It is considered as literally theft. In other word, plagiarism can beconsidered as the act of fraud which involved both the stealing of someone’s’ work and lying about it.

Plagiarism is considered theft or stealing in some context but if the academic material is used then academic fraud clause gets activated. When you are asked to write certain articles the reason behind writing is that your skills and ideas behind the topic gets nourished. But yet many people simple steal other’s writing. The major reason why you should never plagiarize the articles is that they can be easily detected and Google and other search engines will never list them. Usually when you write articles, they get listed on the search engine and their rankings are deiced as per the keywords used inside the articles.

When you copy the content from internet and use in your articles, search engines will easily detect them and declare them as fraud and plagiarism. Thus your articles will never be listed online. Any article which contains more than 15% of plagiarism will not be accepted by the search engines. There are some of the plagiarism detection tools which can easily check the content that you have copied and its source as well. They only take the content as input and display the number of words copied from which sources. So you have no scope of stealing the content and keeping in you articles. If you are writing articles and wishthose to be considered genuine then you should not copy them and write on your own.
