Is your content working better for someone else? @jonearnshaw
A presentation demonstrating how easy it is to lose visibility in the organic SERPS when another website takes only a small amount of your content. The impact is wide reaching and can be disastrous; even to resellers and channel partners.

I sent some questions to Jared Field, PPC specialist at high street fashion retailer,
REISS.
It’s an interesting time for the retailer, with increased numbers of stores and successful
expansion into the USA.
Here’s what Jared had to say about life on the PPC shop floor.
It's pleasing to have so many uppercase letters in a headline.

Does your online form look like something from the Department of Motor Vehicles?
I’ve spent almost 15 years of my life helping companies to get their visitors to fill out and
submit forms online. Forms to request information, to attend events, to sign up for a
service, to complete an order, all sorts of forms.

Stolen copy
conclusion
● Content thieves can win
● It’s not about links
● Google’s way of dealing with duplicate content
is inconsistent
● A content thief can come along and disrupt one
site and beat another
● Having duplicate content across multiple sites
confuses Google. If you offer product content
to a reseller, make sure it is unique
