Checking for Plagiarism in Google Docs

June 26, 2018
Checking for Plagiarism in Google Docs
Original content is the key to attracting readers’ attention. Moreover, Google doesn’t tolerate scraped or automatically generated content and may remove it entirely from the search results.

In this respect, content marketers face two challenges:
  • unique content creation for popular and well-covered topics,
  • checking content by freelance writers for originality.
We’ll help you solve both of them!

We are excited to announce that we’ve embedded the plagiarism checker feature into SEO Writing Assistant, a smart extension for Google docs and WordPress. Now, not only does this add-on give you actionable writing recommendations, but it also checks your text for originality!

To access the plagiarism checker, run the SEO Writing Assistant in your document and just click on the ‘Originality’ button at the bottom left.
