Too Many Cheaters Online Stealing Content and Selling It in E-Books

As a prolific online article writer, I am very upset that so many folks are so lazy, that they'd attempt to cheat and steal content, rather than do it right. There have been numerous cases where folks had found information in the public domain, compiled it into e-books, and then sold those e-books digitally online. Many of the old works which were scanned by Microsoft and Google and are now public domain, some of them 50 years old or more, have been repackaged and sold on e-book selling platforms.

The other day, I found some e-books that I had produced, and was giving away online at my website, and someone else had converted those PDF files into a format that was then loaded onto one of the most popular e-book selling websites. It still had my name on it, as the author, but of course the copyright was missing, and there was that e-book for sale, although someone else was getting money for it.

There was an interesting article in Fast Company titled; "Unmasking A Digital Pirate On Amazon," by Adam Penenberg published digitally on January 25, 2012.

"A Kuwaiti national using fake names and selling others' copyrighted stories in the Kindle Store sheds light on black hat hacker forums--and the theft, taboo sex, and swindles festering in the recesses of Amazon."

The article talked about how online marketers were discussing the ways to manipulate the system at the Warrior Forum. There were folks who were selling e-books for $20, and then allowing people to put their name on it, change the title, and put it onto Amazon, Barnes & Noble, or any of the other e-book websites and sell it in very specific and limited niches.

There was another article recently in the New York Times talking about a similar situation where someone was lifting paragraphs and pieces out of other very popular e-books changing the character names and what have you and reposting them. Obviously that is in violation of copyright law, but one of the biggest challenges with copyright law, or patent law is that it is up to the holder of the copyright or patent to enforce it.

However, with all of this fraud running rampant it's almost impossible to spend all of your time trying to enforce copyright violations and still concentrate on creating new literary works whether it be fiction or nonfiction.

As an online article author, and an author of a good many e-books, I am concerned for other authors who are doing it legitimately, as well as the e-book industry as a whole. The e-books have overtaken the printing industry, and tens of millions of e-readers are sold each month, but it is like the Wild West in the e-book industry.

Eventually the readers of these e-books will no longer trust the system, at that point everyone loses, and the print industry and publishing sector have already been all but destroyed. These cheaters, and lazy online marketers out to scam the public are going to ruin it for everyone. This is very upsetting to me, if you have any questions or comments please shoot me an e-mail, this is a problem we must solve.

There was a time when people do not realize the money that will be achieved through advertising.

How To Make Your Content Accomplish More for Your Business

When optimizing or otherwise trying to improve your blog, don’t overlook the most critical element of all -your content or the actual blog posts. The same is true for static web sites, and even Web 2.0 sites you might post to. Sometimes what you think is great content isn’t what your readers prefer, so you have to pay close attention to feedback. If you make it a point to learn as much as you can, you’ll find that it pays off over time. Everything you learn can become useful, if not immediately, then some time in the future ograje-mn.si/balkonske-ograje, street smart profits

Creating hard-hitting content that is valuable is worth whatever time it takes to make it. You already know that content is what motivates people to visit your site again and again. The heart of good content is eloquently delivered information. Information, then, is good research backed up by reliable facts.

Where you complete your research matters quite a lot in the outcome so, to begin with, don’t try to do your research within the article directories that are out there. We’re willing to hazard a guess that most of the information online originated in those directories. Really, so many article writers run straight for the article directories because they’re quick, easy and convenient. So try to be different and stay away from them if you want to prove that you value your content.

When we read material, we are constantly processing what we read, creating an internal dialogue within our minds. Whatever we are reading, we tend to express our opinions in this dialogue that we say within our minds. Regardless of who you are, this type of processing is always occurring. Always pay attention to what you’re writing, especially your articles and blog posts for your websites and blogs. Always try to think from the reader’s perspective. This is a habit you need to master. This will allow you to think from their perspective, which will inspire you to come up with questions and issues that you can use while writing.

Controversy always sells, and a good way to create this is to find something a noted authority in your niche said or wrote. Start with a statement made by an expert that you disagree with, and create a powerful argument on the other side. Don’t just state your opinion, though -you should back it up with some solid research. This will inevitably make your readers react, whether they agree with you or the expert you’re arguing with. This type of provocative post can help generate discussions, and you should ask for your readers’ opinions. You can create ongoing discussions and debates on your blog this way. When you use these suggestions to make your content that much better, then people will notice that you are more or less on top of things in your niche. There’s no telling how important this is or the ways in which it can improve your reputation and standing. But if you want to really do something with your blog, then you will have the motivation to do what is necessary.
