How to Protect your News Content from Scrapers & Aggregators with Content Scraping Protection for Google News Publishers.

Content scraping is basically when someone takes your content and uses it on their own site (either manually or automatically with a plugin or bot) without giving you attribution or credit. This is usually done in hopes of somehow gaining traffic, SEO, or new users. This is actually against copyright laws in the United States and some other countries. Google also doesn’t condone this and recommends that you should be creating your own unique content.

We have added a option in our plugin section it will assist you in preventing content theft. Once activated, it will only display a portion of your post’s content and protecting your whole content. Keep in mind that only the entire Feed is visible to WordPress Admin and Google.

First you need to upgrade to the GNPublisher PRO and then follow the steps below.

Step 1: Once you install the plugin you will find this option in the WordPress Dashboard -> Setting -> GN Publisher

Step 2: then click Feature -> Enable the Content Scraping Protection option

In the Show Content Upto option you can set how many paragraph, Words, Characters you want to show in the feeds.

That’s it for this tutorial!
