Making copied pages your own (before publishing)

When you copy a website with Full copy, its pages still contain someone's original text and photos. To protect website owners, a site with copied pages can only be published once most of that content has been replaced:

• At least 60% of the original text must be changed.
• At least half of the original photos must be replaced.

Checking your progress

On the site's page (Manage), the Copied pages section shows each copied page:

• Original text left and Original photos left — red until they're low enough.
• Ready once a page passes, or Change more if it doesn't yet.

When every page shows Ready, you can publish.

Tips

• Rewrite headings and paragraphs in your own words — small edits to a sentence still count as the original.
• Replace photos with your own (double-click a picture). See Images and media.
• Deleting sections you don't need counts too.
• Pages copied with Layout only don't need any of this — they start with placeholders.
