What would you do if you found out someone used your work without permission? How could you even prove that any blog posts that you created were yours? These are some of the questions that any successful blogger should be asking themselves when creating their blog. The Keyword is COPYRIGHT your Blog! Basically  a copyright definition is : Copyright law secures for the creator of a creative effort the exclusive right to control who can make copies, or make works derived from the original work. There are a lot of subtleties and international variations but that’s the gist of it. If you create something, and it fits the definition of a creative work, you get to control who can make copies of it and how they make copies, with some important exceptions. You can also sell or licence this right, or, if you do the work for somebody who hired you to do it, they buy this right in advance. Instead of trying to rewrite what many people have said on the net, I have found a fantastic resourse for you Brad Templeton’s Blog This Man has done his homework on everything to do with copyright issues and is well worth the time to read. Are you ready to create your own copyright? There are a couple of ways to creating your own copyright, the first one is using a free service such as MyFreeCopyright.com

MyWebs created a hub about myfreecopyright and how to use it which will give you an indepth look at this service.  In part what he explained is “MyFreeCopyRight creates a digital fingerprint of your content using a hash function ( if you need more information on what a hash function is, then Wikepedia has a great article) . Every piece of content registered with MFC will have a unique digital fingerprint.”

The second way that I found on how to create your own copy right is here at The Copyright Symbol Webpage.  As quoted on their site:

“This page is useful for the basic user who needs to put a copyright symbol on a poem, a story, into photshop or other adobe documents.”

You are free to use any of the images on their page, but as they say, please link to them as that is just good manners.

Here is an example of one of their images:

Regardless of which method you use, think about how you can protect your work and while these ideas may not stop thieves…maybe it will give them food for thought.

To Your Success
