Top 10 Free Online Plagiarism Checkers

Tools in 2017
ruchi gupta (/mystory/author/ruchigupta)     posted on 16th March 2017      1 shares

The World Wide Web has developed to become a major source of all kinds of
information. There are thousands of web pages produced daily and usually, there is
no one to supervise what is being uploaded. As such, there is a huge lure for
people to resort to plagiarism, either intentionally or unintentionally.

What is Plagiarism?

Plagiarism is the representation of another person’s work as one’s

own. It can be intentional, which normally happens when students
and inexperienced writers copy other people’s content in an effort to
save themselves the time spent in conducting real
research.Plagiarism can also be unintentional. Just about everything
we do has been influenced by someone along the way. A writer can,
therefore, have a style that has been influenced by an author they
admire. That could result in unintentional plagiarism through similarity
of style.

problogbooster.com : I get frustrated when I see somebody copying articles from one blog
and pasting it over another – particularly my articles. I’ve been a guest blogger for many sites
and after a quick google search observed that some of my work was being copied without
my permission. Everyone wants extra traffic and better ranking in the search engine, but for
that, your content must be useful and unique. But it hurts when I notice a greater search
engine ranking for the duplicated article than the original one. Here you have included many
useful tools for Bloggers to compete against such copy-paste bloggers. I strongly
recommend this article to those bloggers who thought or feeling something like me.

Grammarly is the best tool. Meantime, try using Ginger tool which also provides rephrase
recommendations, that Grammarly can't. Also, I’ve begun to use Copyleaks as it informs me
when others have copied my work. Also very cost effective for different price packages

Ultimately, plagiarism tools not only allow you, as a content developer, to build important
learning skills, but they also enable learners to know the importance of using their own words
when growing upon skill sets and developing their own knowledge base.

Anyways it's a nice article. Your whole plagiarism related information is really practical and
essential for Search engine optimization. Thanks for sharing. Kudos!!!
