First Time Blogging WordPress Copyright

There is another part of web developing or online selling that many forget at the beginning.

The legal rights to your website and it’s content. Remember that your content is precious to you and you want to protect the content, images, products and other files you might be sharing in your website from people copying, using your content, using your files without your consent or worst of all claiming that it belongs to their website.

If you have a membership site, your clients personal details and other information they share with your site will also need to be protected.

The following is a list of pages of legal declaration about a website, blog’s content and products.

Legal Pages: 

  • Privacy Policies
  • Terms and Conditions
  • Disclaimer
  • Copyright Notice

There is a plugin that I am currently using which cover the above mentioned pages and it also promotes advertisement. The plugin is WP Insert.

You might not want to use the plugin and prefer to hire a professional to write up the pages mentioned above. You can also implement, Creative Commons Attribution Licence.

WordPress has an area that allows you to set up your Privacy Policy Page. The following instructions can help you.

These are just a few methods you can use to implement the Privacy Policy Page in WordPress. However, you might have your own method.
