I have question about copy and paste my articles on other sites.

I watched a video from H-Educate and he said "Copy and Paste your articles on Linkedin and Tumblr and such sites to drive more traffic" will it affect my site?

All of my articles are indexed on Google. I wonder is it affect my ranking later or will Google penalize me for that method?

Don't do this ..that is bad practice

You can copy and paste content into your own blogs. No problem

The big problem is Google is not going to rank your blog.

For Eg - if you are running news blogs and there's enough original commentary or some sort of original content in your blog, then you can get away with quite a bit of “syndication”

But generally speaking, if you are just going to copy and paste content from one blog onto your blog network, you're not going to get anywhere.

In fact, Google might even penalize you because there are a lot of scrapers out there.

Unless you have a lot of cash to build such a network, I would not recommend copying and pasting content into your own blog.

There is a solution, though.

If you want original content and you want a lot of it so you can populate your many different blogs, you can use dictablogging or dictation writing.

You just get a microphone, and you find SEO keywords that get traffic. You then outline, very briefly, blog posts based on those target keywords.

Using those 10-20 words on your outline, you can then dictate a piece of content. For every 10 minutes, you produce 1,000 words!

This is how I went from 3,000 words a day, manually writing, all the way to my personal best of 80,000 words per day.

Yes, you can copy and paste articles to other sites.

However, make sure the original is indexed and has a canonical tag first.

if is social media shud be alright but not to article submission becuase u will get derank for this, google will see that you are not using non plagiarism content. (My experience)

However, it is dangerous to the health of your blog! It would be better to write about a topic on which you have knowledge and experience.

Thanks to everyone for honest answers.

you could take a small section of a post containing your keyword and post that

It can cause serious issue because of other site getting indexed first. Never do this for new websites.

It depends on how you copy and paste your content on LinkedIn.

I don't know about Tumblr but I am quite familiar with LinkedIn and generally speaking if you are behind a social media wall it's kind of a crap-shoot if Google can index this material.

I would suggest that you make some slight changes to your content, there's a way before posting them on social media that counts.

This is a golden opportunity for you because as you know a lot of blog posts tend to be way longer than they need to be this is done for a reason you want your text to be longer so it can rank for more keywords.

But when it comes to social media and given how short people's attention spans are, this might work against you.

Use this opportunity to boil down your content into key points and depending on what platform you're on adjust or adapt your content to it.

For example, if you are on Pinterest your content will look different to if you were on Twitter, or compare that with being on a Facebook group or LinkedIn.

I think you're getting what I'm getting at, repurpose your content to maximize the value of the social media network you have accounts on.

That's how you play the game instead of just blind copying and pasting.
