Text uniqueness

Rules and tools for checking originality

Key rules

  • What uniqueness is

    Share of text not matching indexed sources. SEO norm: 90%+ on major services.

  • Tools

    Text.ru, Content-Watch, eTXT Antiplagiat, Advego — different algorithms; cross-check at least two.

  • Technical vs semantic

    Word swapping gives technical uniqueness, but Google reads meaning. Value = new information, experience, data.

  • Cannibalization

    Internal duplicates hurt just as much: canonical, page merging, unique meta tags.

Don't chase 100%: industry terms and laws can't be paraphrased without losing accuracy. Semantic novelty matters more — own data, cases, conclusions. Boilerplate phrases dilute uniqueness at the meaning level.
