    Run it through.

    http://www.copyscape.com/

    You can also google entire paragraphs out of it and see if they come up on someone else's site. If you find it, you can file a "digital millennium copyright act" complaint:

      Ya, copyscape is a great source, but if you can't don't wanna spend money on this, you could just copy a sentence or two from your content and run a search on Google. If the person who copied your content indexed their site, then it would come up on the search results. Then you could contact them to take the site down.

      But if they haven't indexed it, it might be difficult to find it.

    Use Copyscape Plagiarism Checker - Duplicate Content Detection Software and google , copy paste small portions of your content and check who copied it

    I seem to remember there being a way to disable right click copy on a site. I am sure wordpress may have a plug in as well to prevent people from being able to copy at all.

    Good Luck

    You can continuously search for your post titles in Google. But for each page on your site you want to check if it is copied, you can copy the url of the page and paste it in copyscape.com and then you can see the results.

    Copyspace is great but the free version is limited.
    There are some free ones like Plagium and CopyGator.
    Do a Google Search with keyword 'Copyspace free alternatives' , and you will get a lot of them.

    You can also search your Title or some sentences from you articles to see if it has been copied. Use following format <"sentence to search">.
    Implementing right click disable option would not work and could drive visitors away from your site.

    If you have money for that copyscape is a great service. But if you don't wanna spend money on that simply do Google search with your content. Disable the right click option is not always recommended.

    In my opnion, it's not that important as Google ranks what was was published first.

    Not long ago I did a Google search and my content was showing in someone else's site... I did check and noticed that the guy was - at least - giving credit to where the article came from and I got a backlink so remember that it may not be such a bad thing if someone "copies" your content...

    It all depends of what your purpose is and why you'd be worried to see your content elsewhere...

    I dont think it worth to be spending time if someone has stolen your content...
    even if find someone else with your content, there is very little you can do to stop them from doing so, it doesnt worth your time to be following them...
    if you around the forum, you will see many people complaining other people stealing their content but very little can be done to stop them...
    just my personal thoughts

      Wouldn't it be better to just rewrite the content so it can be different from the original?
      That way the duplicate content problem would be gone..
      If it's too much to do it manually, you could also use article spinning software and then just tweak the new content a bit so that the finished product will not sound artificial.

    1. Copyscape check as already mentioned
    2. Alter right click to ask users not to copy
    3. Add script so that your link and copyright is added if they do copy paste
