1. Include the copyright symbol on all pages of your website and your content like e-books and PDF downloads. This will deter those who innocently think it’s ok to copy your stuff without realising it’s an infringement.
2. Use Copyscape a duplicate content checker to search the internet for copies of your web or blog pages. You pop your page address in the search box and it will scan the web for copies. Note that it searches each page individually not a whole website.
3. If you have a WordPress site try a plug in called WP-Copyprotect. This ‘locks’ your blog so text and images can’t be highlighted, copy and pasted. This works on the assumption that anyone wanting to steal your blog post or text from your website will be too lazy to re-type it out for themselves.
4. Protect your online products, photos and images using a Creative Commons license. You can get one set up in seconds for free to protect ebooks, images and other materials for that extra bit of security.
