then  use  the  search  engine  monitors  we  talk  about  in  the  next  chapter  to  keep  up  with  new 
matches on your content. depending on how often you add content or how many snippets you 
want to monitor, you may have to update these searches often. 
Monitoring for content snippets is ine in many cases, but for articles you might want to monitor 
the content of entire pages. Copyscape (copyscape.com) lets you enter the urL of a page and 
get  other  Web  pages  whose  content  is  uncomfortably  close  to  matching  it.  i  ind  that  if  i  do 
this with the front page of my site, i get a lot of people making use of my rss feeds. however, 
if  you  have  an  article  or  information  that's  supposed  to  be  accessed  by  subscribers  only,  you 
might want to monitor in this way to make sure that your content is not being circulated in an 
unauthorized way.
Copyscape  provides  only  a  limited  number  of  results  with  a  free  account.  For  more  results, 
and to get automatic e-mails when new matches of your content appear, you can sign up for a 
Copysentry account. Copysentry costs $4.95 a month or $19.95 a month, depending on the level 
of service you want. 
it's too easy to be paranoid about your content on the internet being stolen. But it's also easy to 
set up monitors to assure that you become aware of any instances of theft. preparing yourself 
without dwelling on the possibilities is a good strategy.
