I’ve had people steal my content. One guy took one of my sales letters and published it as an ebook on Amazon.
The nerve.
But once I got over the shock of someone doing that, I realized it’s nothing to worry about, or try to stop.
You shouldn’t, either.
You shouldn’t worry about anyone stealing your content or idea. If that’s something on your mind, let it go.
You’ve got better things to do.
The time and energy you might put into stopping them could be much better used creating new content and new ideas, or building on what you’ve already done.
I know this might trigger some IP practitioners, but think about it. Even if you could stop someone from stealing and using your stuff, is it really worth the effort?
Don’t take that case.
Besides, the purloiner of your content isn’t going to do as well with it as you do because it’s your baby, not there’s.
You’re writing to and for your readers. You have a relationship with them and your content resonates with them. It has your personality and style, your stories and examples, watermarked on it, and anyone who tries to pass it off as their own is going to fall flat.
Even if someone successfully passes off your stuff as their own, even if they make a fortune with your idea, so what? If you have an abundant mindset, you know there’s plenty for everyone.
If you are worried about someone stealing your content, the best thing you can do is avoid writing generic articles and posts. Write something that carries your brand.
Spend your time creating good content, not looking over your shoulder.
