Keeping Content Fresh, In Your Blog Posts

Hello and good afternoon, everyone!

Okay, I am going to get right down to this afternoons subject of "Keeping Content Fresh, In Your Blog Posts."

The reason for this blog post and this subject is several fold, and needs some attention to, and this is why I am wishing to share this information with you.  It is important that, if you are posting blogs, that you keep the materials as close to 100%  original, as possible.

I have to tell you, that it is real disappointing to me; when I view several blogs and they all are saying the same things, the same way, with nearly the same wording.  Yes, I am saying they are most likely plagerizing their materials.   However, I have to say that some folks will post under different names, and copy content from one site to another, one blog to another.  In either case, it is not "Fresh Content" and it can cause some serious problems for the people involved.

I do some Ghost Writing, and some writing on various sites, under different "Pen Names" and I once fell into a trap, where I was either tired, or thought an line of thought was important to share across the boards, where I did my writing.   So, I would cut and paste, the completed information from site to site.

Well all went well, for awhile, until I started receiving emails from site management, and from clients, saying they were dropping me due to my copying content and not writing original content.  Even after explaining to them it was my copy, my original content which was posted on several sites; I lost contracts and also were banned from those sites.   MY BAD!!!  It lost me over 1300.00 dollars in jobs..

Here is the thing,  Whether you are online to make money, or simply to share events of any type, you need to keep the content as close to 100% pure, as possible.   Now, what I mean by this is that since we all know there are millions upon millions of people on the Internet, there are Millions upon Millions of people blogging and writing something that goes up on the Web, daily.

No matter what your passion is, someone, somewhere, somehow, will be blogging or writing about the same subject matter; at some point.  So, You are most likely going to find someone, or many someones, whom will be blogging or posting about that same passion, that same subject matter, with similar thoughts and ideas.   That can not be helped.  Nor can it be helped that you may even use the same terms, especially if there is a "Jargon or Slang" associated with asserting knowledge or authority, to your readership.

You have no idea of how many people will take content and copy that content, to be put into a "Spin Processor" and come out with so called "Fresh Content."  However, in most cases that can be found out, over a short amount of time.

Since my experiences, which I shared above, I have never resorted to the "Copy/Paste" mentality again.   Honestly, I write 100% of my text posts and materials, on the "FLY" and that keeps it "Fresh".      Yes, you say it is difficult to always come up with stuff to say..  Again, Yes, it can be.  However, if you read my earlier post, That method of writing, helps out tremendously, on avoiding writer's block, and keeps you on track with a single train of thought as well..

However, not only does this Methodology of writing give you "Fresh" content. It also develops something very valuable to you, as a blogger and writer.  It establishes a "TIME LINE" on your writing, so if anyone questions your blogging materials, as being yours; they have an instant paper trail, to establish that a given thought patter was developed and everything is connected.   By looking at the posting times, they can see that your materials, have a genuine link to previous postings or writings..

If you have not read my earlier post, please take time to do so.  Then by coming back here, you will see some linage to the flow of information, which is there.

In closing of this post, I want to say Thank You for visiting me, here at Gary's Space, and I look forward to seeing you in the near Future.

Have A Happy Blogging Day!
