    I just hope you're not writing articles in English.

    If I'm reading this right... you're asking if you should steal or not?

    What do you think the answer is?

    You can copy and paste articles from sites...

    ezinearticles.com
    articlebase.com
    goarticles.com

    IF you follow the Terms Of Service.

    Those terms include leaving the authors Bio in place,
    and leaving the authors links live.

    AND no you can't go taking articles from sites without their permission.

    Hey ajivets,
    All the warriors above are right, copypasting is evil. Both for search engines and (which is more serious) real people.
    I used to do SEO for long (those boring optimized articles with an exact number of keywords included, brr) but in the end realized there's nothing more important than really good content. As it's appreciated by people.
    I'd recommend you to read much and get inspired by other works to write yours, not simply copypaste them.

    If you don't have enough time to write unique content for your site/blog, you should hire article (ghost) writers to do it for you.

    As other warriors have mentioned above, unless you've permission to copy articles from certain article directories, it's illegal to copy other people's blogs or sites.

      Completely. You can't just copy and paste without the owner's permission. Why not write your own articles? Or outsource the job on somewhere like elance?

        Quality unique content is always better but using articles from article directories can work quite good as well as you can find lot of good content form article directories that can be useful for your visitors.

        When you copy an article form article directory, do not just copy it form the page but use ezine ready articles that are provided by article directory whether it is html version or plain text version so you can be sure that you get the whole article nicely with authors recourse box intact.

    you can use them as reference but not actually copy+paste the article as if it's yours. plagiarism is a crime and you shoudn't be using someone else's article for your own benefits, paraphrasing other article just to look it as new isn't good also.

    a unique and well researched article would be great, you can only use someone else's article as your reference guide with its writer's consent. You can use copyscape to check if your article is unique, or any other tool available online.

    and besides the whole "illegal" issue, don't you just love when you see your work posted somewhere? to have people all over the world reading your words...it is extraordinary, at least for me. i wouldn't copy-paste from somewhere as I hate the idea of posting someone else's ideas on my site, my blog or whatever. Thinking about having somebody's content in my own "space" just makes me reject it...it is simply foreign...
