Copygator

Copygator
About Copygator

This is a very useful and cool site. It notifies you when your content is duplicated. The Copygator service aggregates data from over two million blog feeds, and parses over a half million new blog posts a day. Their servers then crunch all of this date and evaluate every post against each other to determine if any two are roughly, nearly, or exactly alike. They are able to show you exactly where your content is being duplicated, quoted or plagiarized. Best of all, this is done automatically and free of charge.


How does it work?

In order to make it work for your blog, there are two options. One of them is to provide a valid RSS FEED and Copygator will do the rest. The other option is more interesting. You simply copy and paste a badge onto your blog and Copygator will find feeds on your side and watch your content automatically. Just watch for the badge to change to red if it detects your content has been duplicated elsewhere in the blogosphere.


How do they notify you when they find duplicated content?

They will notify you by e-mail, RSS or you can just watch the badge at your site to change to red. You can also use the “Who’s using your feed content” search bar at the top of their website.


Install the badge on your site and watch it change to red to identify the copycat.
