Copyrights or Create your original content!
Before posting *anything* on social media, you want to make sure it’s not infringing someone’s copyrights. This can also be a validity check to keep your content original.
If you are wondering what EXACTLY copyright is, here’s a 1-minute crash course.
According to Instagram’s help center, “copyrights are legal rights that protect original works of authorship”.
`Your account can get copyright strikes and be disabled if you continue to post content without making sure it’s fair use of the work. From downloaded music and paid content anything that is not your original content can get copyright strikes. This brings me to my next point:
How do you prevent copyright? - Before posting any content ask yourself:
Did I create all the content by myself?
Do I have permission to use all the content included in the reel
Is all the content I’m sourcing protected by copyright?
Remember, it never hurts to be safe!
And when you are aware of this, we make sure the content produced is unique and different, attracting its own set of audience.
