Copyright Laws Do Protect Bloggers
Copyright is legal protection of a created work, also called intellectual property (IP). For bloggers, that means your blog posts are protected as well as other content you create for your blog — like ebooks, music, videos, software, podcasts, and photos — provided that you’re the creator of it.

Once a piece of IP is produced in its final form (for bloggers, this means hitting the “Publish” button) its author automatically receives protection under US copyright laws. The protection is instantaneous with publication and no official copyright registration is necessary to claim your ownership of the content. In fact, you don’t even need the little circled-C symbol © to indicate your ownership.

Can Bloggers Protect Their IP Without Registering? Yes. Although you’re automatically protected, it doesn’t hurt to put in place various reminders to that effect on your blog. Here are some practical steps you can take to remind others that your work is protected:

  • Include the copyright symbol © on each page of your site, along with your name and date.
  • Create a special page about your reposting policies. You don’t need legalese – just clearly state what you’ll tolerate and what you won’t with regard to reposting your content.
  • Sign up for a Creative Commons license.
  • Configure your RSS feed so that it only shows summaries of your posts.
  • Use Google alerts, searches, or a plagiarism site to notify you of plagiarized content.
  • Add watermarks to your visual content indicating your name and website.

What Is “Fair Use?” “Fair use” is a term bloggers should learn since it affects both their own blog content and content belonging to others which they might wish to use. Fair use means that it’s okay to use someone else’s work for the purposes of criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, or research, as long as it’s validated after consideration of the four factors below. The four factors relating to fair use are described in detail on the US copyright’s website, but here’s a quick rundown:

What you’re using the content for — Fair use takes into account commercial or nonprofit use and whether you’re adding something new to the original IP.
The nature of the content — Using someone else’s content creatively can violate fair use more often than using it for factual work (like reviews).
How much content you’re using — Using large quantities of someone else’s work within your own content can impact fair use more than small amounts.
How your use impacts the value of the original work — If your use of the content displaces sales of the original work, you’ll run afoul of fair use.

Keep in mind that fair use also applies to your own content that others may criticize, comment, or report on.
The Golden Rule – the golden rule applies when considering using someone else’s work on your blog; treat their work as you would have your own work treated.

Best Practices for Syndicating Content:

  1. Don’t repost the entire article. // Leave this new audience something to be desired, back on your website. Post the first few paragraphs of the article on a syndicated page and link back to your original post to direct traffic your way.
  2. Don’t repost immediately. // Give Google some time to crawl your original post and recognize it as the first source. We recommend waiting at least a week before syndicating your content on a third-party site.
  3. Link back to the original article. // Google itself stated, “It is helpful to ensure that each site on which your content is syndicated includes a link back to your original article” to alert the search engine which is the original.
