Prevent Plagiarism, Disabling Text Selection on Your Blog


I found that a lot of bloggers are facing plagiarism problem. Some people like to copy the posts on blogs and paste it on their blog to use it as their own contents. Actually, if those "copy and paste" people would like to share, they can spend sometime reading the posts on other blogs and write a new post using their understanding about the topic but they are too lazy to read, too lazy to understand and too lazy to type.

So, this post is about how we can avoid "copy and paste" people from copying our blog contents. I found a script that can disable "text selection" on our blog on Dynamic Drive. So, by using the script, text selection on our blog will be disabled and so "copy and paste" cannot be done.

Prevent text selection on your blog is quite simple.

Step By Step Guide:
1. Login to your Blogger.com Account then go to "Layout">>"Edit HTML".
2. Then, all you need to do is to copy all the code below:



The code above is obtained from Dynamic Drive

3. Then, paste the code after the section of our blog.
4. Save your template.

Now, you can visit your blog and then try to select text on your blog. I am sure that it is no longer enabled. So, people cannot copy your post anymore.
