How to add Article Source Links Automatically on Blogger Blogspot

 

This is a short tutorial on how to add an article source link when someone else copies content from our Blogger blog.

Before we begin, I'll give you a little idea of what we're going to do in this tutorial.

For example, try logging into the following Blogger blog belonging to Go-Blog :

https://goblog-banged.blogspot.com/

Now try copying some of the words that the blog has then copying them to another place like Notepad or Microsoft Word.

If you pay attention, then in the text editor an additional sentence will appear below the words you want to copy earlier. For example, when I copy the sentences, I took from the article 'HP Touch Smart', then I will get the following additional sentence:

As you can see, there will be an additional copyright symbol along with the title and name of the blog that owns the article. Not to forget the link to the article.

Btw, if you copy it in Microsoft Word or to blogging platforms such as WordPress and Blogger, then the link above becomes an active link and not just a form of writing.

This will be very useful if there is an Auto Generated Content (AGC) blog that is targeting your site. With the techniques in this tutorial, you can get free backlinks from everyone who copies the content you create.

So, how?

In Blogger, go to the THEMES menu and then click the EDIT HTML button. After that look for the tag and then copy the following code right before the tag. </body></body>

<script type='text/javascript'>
//<![CDATA[
!function(e,t){var n="getSelection",o="removeAllRanges",i="addRange",l="parentNode",a="firstChild",d="appendChild",r="removeChild",s="test",c="innerHTML";if(e[n]){var p,g,f,h,u,y;t.addEventListener("copy",function(C){for(g=C.target;3===g.nodeType;)g=g[l];if(h=t.createElement("div"),(p=e[n]())&&p.rangeCount&&(p=p.getRangeAt(0))&&(f=p.cloneRange(),p=p.cloneContents())){for(;u=p[a];)h[d](u);if(!/^(pre|code)$/i[s](g.nodeName||"")&&!/(^|s)no-attribution(s|$)/i[s](g.className||"")){var v=e.location.href;h[c]+="<br><br>&copy; "+t.title+'<br>Source: <a href="'+v+'">'+v+"</a>"}y=t.createRange(),t.body[d](h),y.selectNodeContents(h),p=e[n](),p[o](),p[i](y),setTimeout(function(){h[l][r](h),p[o](),p[i](f)})}},!1)}}(window,document);
//]]>
</script>

If so, save the changes you made and then see the results. Now everyone who attempts to copy your content will get additional source links like my previous example.

Btw, this doesn't mean your site is safe from content thieves because the article's source link can be easily deleted manually. I myself prefer to add a script to prevent copy paste of Blogger content. If I want only some of the content to be copied, it can also be done easily.
