Copyscape alternative?

[Paula Steen]

Is there a way to check articles for uniqueness before they are online?

I know on Copyscape you paste the URL of the article to check it.

Is there somewhere you can paste your article and it will check to see if it is found anywhere online?

[Liam Hamer]

This one works nicely

Plagiarism Checker

[Paula Steen]

Just what I needed... thanks, Liam!

[waken]

Another alternative is dupefreepro.com

[Paula Steen]

Thanks, Tina and Waken!

I'll run these articles through all three suggestions just to make sure they are unique.

Another fast way to check if a similar article has been published is to look for a unique phrase or line in the article and copy/paste that line into the Google search box in quotes and see what comes up.

I use this method frequently and it is quite telling. It's not the end-all, but it is effective to some degree. And it's fast and free.

I second the vote for Plagium.com and used to really like ArticleChecker.com

ArticleChecker doesn't always work though. It seems like the script only works part of the time and displays "0 -Results" when there should be results. When it works though, it works great and will find the dupes.

[Paula Steen]

Thanks, KG and Greg!

Plagium.com is working well for me.

I also appreciate the Google tip.

[monitorit]

i still love copyscape its just a shame you cannot copy and paste.

[Tina Golden]

You can, monitorit. Get the premium account - it's only a nickel to check.

Yes, Plagium isn't perfect.
But according to this comparison, sometimes it is better than Copyscape
Plagium: A Copyscape Alternative | PlagiarismToday

Take a look! What do you think?

[Karan Goel]

I prefer to use PlagiarismDetect.com | Free Online Plagiarism Detection System, Plagiarism checker

[RGallowitz]

Plagium is AWESOME!
I don't even use copyscape anymore.

[Ryan79]

I would like to recommend PercentDupe Online Plagiarism Checker - Duplicate Content Detection Tool. It is FREE.

[Caleb Spilchen]

I use ArticleChecker.com

[Gertie]

Hey Thanks for the links you guys.

I have been looking for an alternative too.

This place is great for finding all the help a girl could want.

If you google "plagiarism checker" you will get a bunch of them.

...You can also use Google itself. It does a very good job. With Caffeine I expect it to do an even better job.

Can anyone recommend a batch search copyscape alternative? Something reasonably priced? I tried uncover, but since it doesn't allow you to exclude any part of your site (which adds thousands of useless pages in my case), I couldn't make it work.

[daniel900]

dupefreepro.com ist a nice one. I use this too and it can be helpful to make Articles unique.

Wow. You just bumped a 10-month old thread.

As a free alternative there's no option better than Bill's tip of pasting the phrase into google. In all other cases Copyscape is the best hands down and hardly expensive if you just use it for checking individual articles.

[Sherry Driedger]

Articlechecker and Duplichecker are both free, but I have the premium account with Copyscape. I can paste the body of an article in there and it is only 5 cents for it to do the check. A ten dollar deposit goes a long way, and gives me peace of mind.

[savvybizbuilder]

Stick on copyscape, that what most IM use to check their article. It is one reliable tool to check your article.

[WriterWahm]

Yep, I second that. Copyscape premium account works best for me. Besides for some reason it seems to give clients peace of mind.

[bigdan79]

I use the wordpress plugin for dupeoff.com

[MarcusJohnson]

We're using DupeFreePro.

[DavidWincent]

Cheapest way to check if a similar article has been published is to look for a phrase or line in the article and copy it and paste it in google. You will get some useful results. It is the cheapest method as it is free of cost. It is certainly not very powerful but it can be worked with for a time being.

[amey83]

I tried many ways to find duplicate site content. I didn't check copyscape's premium service. I think this is better

[Colin Klinkert]

I want to check user submitted articles for a private blog network before they are posted. This means I need to check thousands of posts a week at a minimum. This makes pay per search too expensive, anyone know of a 'check as often as you like' monthly membership service etc.? Suggestions will be awesome!

[JHconsultingAZ]

Sweet! I Google'd "alternative CopyScape" and I am glad I found the link to the ArticleChecker site.

Thanks, guys!!

[Osman_M]

If you part of any university or college they sometimes have content checker before you submit assignments and stuff.

[Peru101]

Why isn't Google-checking powerful? That would be the place to do it, right?
Just a thought: If anyone writes sales pages say, or anything they especially don't want others stealing, they could set up Google Alerts for sentences of the text. Whenever something new (and copied) is indexed, you'll know immediately.

[contentmanager]

I have checked quite a few plagiarism checker with the free account. But the end results were not satisfying. So, i always sticl to CS premium account.
