What is Content Etiquette?
When you write content, quote or share images, You might get all that information from some other source. But how will you make it your own? This is why we need content etiquette. Content etiquette simply means the rules and regulations that have to be followed as a blog writer.

What is Plagiarism?

Plagiarism can happen intentionally or unintentionally. Plagiarism that happens intentionally is a serious problem and in some countries it is considered as a crime. You must have experienced by now, even if we write our own unique ideas there is still a chance to find a small percentage of plagiarism in the blog.
"If you’re not sure whether what you’ve written is truly original, it’s a good idea to use an online plagiarism checker. There are several of these available, usually for free, and all you have to do is copy and paste your text into a box and hit “check.” You’ll get an alert if the tool has detected plagiarism" source

What is a citation?
Plagiarism can be avoided by giving citation which means that you are informing your readers that particular information came from another source. By doing this you can add value to your own content and also give credit to the original author.

‘’Giving credit to the original author by citing sources is the only way to use other people's work without plagiarizing’’ source
