Can Transferring your Posts from another site to Steemit be giving yourself a kick in the backside.

You may be having the same thought process as we were until it was explained to us that copying the same content from your website site to other platforms such as Steemit is not a good idea. It may seen fabulous as you may be thinking it gets more eyeballs on your content and if you don't get any money on your website, then what will it hurt if you post to Steemit?

After all it gives you a change to make a few pennies, or even a few dollars if you're lucky. It also allows you to pick up some more Steem Power which puts more confidence into your writing abilities.
After all a few pennies is better than a kick in the backside right?

But could you be getting a few pennies and a kick in the backside also by copying and pasting from your Website to Steemit.

  

Picture Source 

We didn't think anything of posting to my website dragging the content over, as it was a easy place to host pictures on my Website than on a cloud thingy place for pictures and then still have to take the address from there, We thought it was easier to upload to my website and do the same thing of taking the picture address link for when your doing your own pictures, if your using pictures from the likes of Pixabay you can copy the image address from them and add it in your post with a link back to Pixabay with out having to down load pictures.

I saw a comment I think it was last week from @noganoo  about this but didn't quite understand as it was on someone else's post
.
Then I was chating with Bruce Bates from the Marketers Coop about a blog post he had done on marketing, (Who I annoy about marketing tips, good to have friends to annoy that are knowledgeable in Marketing, normally I ask after I've made the mistake)  I asked him if he was going to copy and paste that into Steemit, he replied Nooooo and I wont be copy and pasting any of my content from any of my blog posts.

He explained Why - that Google scans posts for the same content and if it finds two or more identical posts it will drop your SEO, and black list you.
I'm surer no one wants to get on the black list of Google.

He continued on and broke it down for me explaining the difference of content and sharing that content on social media, so you can write a post on only one platform but can share that on Facebook, Twitter, etc but lets say if instead of sharing that content through the share buttons you copied and pasted it, you would now have two identical content posts.
Which you shouldn't do two identical content posts.

He explained this is why he built into the Marketers Coop & ADSactly Hits OSMP Script (stands for Open Source Marketing Platform.)  an article exchange where people offer credits and a short description what should be included in the article in exchange for articles with different content from different people about the same subject put in different places over the internet. 

When using Steemit or any content platform you need to put out unique one time content so you will need to decide which platform (Website or Steemit) gets your unique information which is quite hard as We are in the same boat but I believe @moisesmcardona has the solution with a tool he built for websites being able to add their Steemit posts - here is the link to the post https://steemit.com/steemit/@moisesmcardona/integrate-your-steemit-posts-to-your-website-using-my-tool-steemit-posts-to-website-integrator-open-source#@moisesmcardona

So when we have fabulous idea's we need to get out that we don't get a kick in the backside also!

Also here is the post Bruce did on Marketing that started the knowledgeable share - http://unlimited-free-traffic.net/making-money-avoiding-scams/
