Reposting My Original Content

[photoseo1]

I wanted to know how I should repost my original content from my blog to other sites, obviously quality ones and legacy style content.

I don't want get hit with any duplicate content or spam type penalties, but want to further spread some of my content from my blog to get it noticed and drive traffic and leads.

Do I submit the posts as is, then put a link to the original source and if so, how many sites can i safely repost the same piece of content too? I am not trying to do anything sneaky, just want it to spread my best content to a good amount high authority sites.

I already do social bookmarking and Facebook, twitter etc.

Check out these posts on blog syndication. It can be a great source of exposure for your site.

Make sure the original post on your site is already indexed first and you link back to it from any place that the post is syndicated.

Hi Steven,

Good question, I work for a publisher and on a in-regular basis we post content that is already been published on another blog. What we look for is greatly unique content, but what we always do is is point the canonical back to the original URL so we won't get into trouble by publishing any duplicate content. We also attribute the author with a link (although most times nofollow). I wouldn't post your content to too many sites (max 2).

Will the types of sites where your content would get noticed by the right people accept a copy of content that has been published elsewhere?

Will they want to publish content where you may outrank them, since you are the original publisher?

Are you willing for their version of the content to outrank yours, if they have a more powerful site?
