RE: So you think you own your content on steem – Sorry to tell you…..

in #steem5 years ago

Good to know! I hope steemit fixes this... I know sites like Medium are careful to not claim ownership of people's content when it's imported in from a blog. I would hope steemit would do the samething...

Medium has an import tool and when that is used it tells medium not to claim ownership of the content. Here is Medium's page talking about it: https://help.medium.com/hc/en-us/articles/217991468-About-SEO-and-duplicate-content

^^^^^^^ this is what steemit should be doing

Isn’t that what happens when you publish via Steempress? Doesn’t it set the canonical link as you wp blog?

I'm don't think Steempress would be able to change the canonical link on steemit unless steemit let them. Perhaps @paulag can answer your question but I don't think it works that way at the moment. One question is not just steemit but all the other d.apps... I wonder how they are all handling this?
