We got tired of using Copyscape and made our own tool using AJAX and Google API. Thanks for doing some real research on the two checkers though. It's a simple algorithm to check for duplication but the challenge comes in making uncommon situations in submitted text bring back good results. Especially papers with quotes in them.http://searchenginereports.net/articlecheck.aspx

WHY MOST PEOPLE FAIL IN NETWORK MARKETINGMany people who enter the Network marketing business fail. If they do so, is there any need to blame the industry? Is there a need to blame the person?Whom must you blame? Blame the person who has failed and not the industry. If you look into the industry you will find many successful people. So it clearly spot out the person for the failure. Failures usually happen in business. It is not the thing that occurs in MLM only.Changes occur in people, business world, and everywhere you look at. Change is the only factor that remains stable forever and ever……………..These changes are the main reason for the failure in MLM business. MLM business is a social business. So it has to move along with the changes that happen in the outside world. MLM is called as "Relationship Marketing". People develop relationships at the same time they do marketing in MLM. For a prosperous building up of business put the stings of relationship back to marketing. You must remind your mind frequently that you are speaking to persons who are real, with authentic anticipation and actual aspiration.Failures are the stepping stone to success. This is a proverb with which you are so familiar with. Though so familiar, you don’t remember it at times of your failure. Why so…because you take those failures personally. This will conquer your mind-set and you will try to escape from this by quitting the business as soon as possible. Is this the right way? No………………..“Success is the ability to go from one Failure to another without the loss of Enthusiasm.”Winston Churchill.Failures revolve most people’s mind. It is a picture that people do not wish to have. If you wish to see your true friends, fail in something like MLM….you can really realize it. But actually failure is one of the way to triumph in network marketing. It is the retard and misfortune that you face in your life that craft the person inside you that MAGNETIZE MLM Success…You don’t Pursue MLM Success…It will Pursue You.You don’t turn out to be Successful…Success will turn out to be you.You don’t CRAFT MLM Success…It will CRAFT you…in the course of the setbacks, storms, and collapse. You can permit yourself to fail…it is NOT a thing that take place to you, or not in favor of you…but it happens IN YOU.……………All collapses come from within…………….It is a fact that you let to turn out… People merely fall short when they quit, and they quit because they are focused on…Mainly try to discover what all things contribute to failure. Then try to avoid them. Surely you will touch the triumph. For this you must learn the Network Marketing business very thoroughly without any loophole. It will be very functional if the person does a lot of research on the job he or she is going to involve. This will give them unbelievable knowledge regarding the business.

I guess to better answer your question, I'll tell you why I wrote the script. I hire writers for a variety of things, and in some cases, that content is passed onto 3rd parties through a service (such as through 10dollararticles.com). I wanted to be sure that I was covering every possible angle when trying to detect potential content theft. This script was initially a tool for me to use with Copyscape — I just happened to open it up to the public.Now, I am not fully aware of copyscape's resources that it uses, so until I can exhaustively compare results found with my software against the results that copyscape produces, I can't say with any assurance that my software will produce results that copyscape will not. However, what I can say is that, based on somewhat limited testing, the "niche" searches tend to give better results than general searches (through the software) in certain situations. Which, this translates to better results for those who simply copy and paste a string into Google's main search interface to check for duplicate content.Say a writer finds a .doc file on the subject of gardening which is indexing in Google/Yahoo and uses that content. In my testing, the .doc documents we're not always showing up at the top of the search results when you performed an exact-match search for a string in that document — web pages that do not have exact-matching phrases will outrank the .doc files. Maybe this is a flaw with Google's/Yahoo's ranking algorithms, but I replicated it a few times with different documents, so it's something that caused me to add these options (doc/pdf searches) to the software.My willingness to update this software beyond bug fixes and a couple of small improvements really depends on whether more people start to use it. I am working on a way to match content contextually (rather than exact-matches) to help identify plagiarism, but something such as that wouldn't be added unless there was a stronger demand for the base software. And even then, I'm not sure it would be a good fit because you cannot expect a general user to understand contextual matches, or even false positives for that matter — this is another inherent flaw in my software.I guess, at the end of the day, I can simplify things for you — possibly. This is software that I was using personally, and put it on that particular website for two reasons — targeted link bait, primarily; though I do enjoy writing programs for others to use. Even being up on the site for maybe one month, it's receiving visitors and it appears to have a few regular users. I don't really know if there's a huge market for it, but I found/find it useful, and I have to assume that there are others who will as well. I have no current intentions to develop that into a paid service — so it really is just there to help others who find it useful, and also to improve the visibility of that particular website.Once I make some substantial changes to the software, I'll be sure to make a new comment on this page.

Thank you very much for your response and please keep me posted as you add new features and fix known issues, I'll be very eager to hear. The question that I guess I have is that I know many people who use Copyscape to check an article that they purchased for plagiarism (something you can easily do with the paid version) and I'm curious what you feel the benefit of your service is over that one. Clearly you save the five dollars for the first check, so would yousay that yours is for the "occasional" plagiarism checker and not the one that does it routinely?I would agree with that statement, but I am unsure exactly how large a group that is. I'd love to hear any thoughts you have.

Thank you for your candid review of the software. The apostrophe thing is a real drawback, and I have a fix in place on my local version, I just haven't integrated it into the pretty-yet-limited version of the software that is available publicly. Even being the creator of this, I do not really disagree with much of anything stated here, for the most part. Just about everything mentioned will be adjusted or fixed, save the grabbing of matching results through an API or other method and displaying them on-site.While I think to appreciate what the software does, you would have to use it more than just on a handful of queries — the market for this type of software is smaller than for the userbase of a site such as copyscape.com. It's not about saving five cents, but I know plenty of people who can't afford the $10/$20 to purchase copyscape credits — the primary market of this software is content buyers who need to be as sure as they can that their purchased content was not lifted from some obscure, and possibly overlooked, source. In any case — I fully appreciate your candid review.

Me either truth be told, the only advantage I can see is for Copyscape users that don't mind the limitation in the ease of use but don't want to pay the five cents for the text search. Needless to say, that's a very small target audience…

"Since only one search is usually all that is necessary to prove that a work is plagiarized, one has to wonder how useful this really is."Agreed. I tried the tool out last night and the apostrophe trouble is a real pain. So is not knowing whether a search has a positive result or not. In it's present state I don't see a reason to use it over inputing your own phrases in Google.
