Tip: Never copy another blog post or news story in its entirety into your business blog.
Generally, it’s okay to link to information found on other sites, but you should always acknowledge the original source.
There’s a lot of information available online, but much of it is copyrighted. Pay attention to copyright notices and respect them.
Why it’s important: Copying information from another site may be illegal.
It’s called plagiarism.
You could find yourself in legal trouble if you simply cut and paste information from another site into your business blog.
In addition, plagiarizing another blog can ruin your company’s good name.
