Hello,
Recently I made an account on Medium. Medium has an important content feature, but I presume that it is not allowed to import my articles from Hubpages itself, since that would be a duplicate article, or am I incorrect in such regards?
However, my articles which are translated and posted elsewhere should be fine to post there in the respective language section, would that not be the case? I had seen it posted previously that translated articles didn't fall under Hubpage's duplicate content rules, but I wanted to make sure before posting anything to another large site.
HP technically does not allow you to post content here that has already been published elsewhere. As far as I know, you are free to post your published work on other platforms. But that has negative effects on your work and no one in their right mind would want to do this, if they want someone to read their work.
Regarding the translated copy, again, search engines are smart enough to detect this, and unless the two copies point to each other with language tags in the <head> section of the page, this is going to have the same effect as copying your content in English from one website to another.
So, as a professional opinion (SEO), I would suggest you refrain from doing this.

The canonical link thing isn't working on one of my Medium articles (which is a duplicate of a Feltmagnet guide) It appears at the top of SERPS and the Feltmagnet version has been eliminated from search results. So I cleared the content in the Medium article, put up a detour sign and routed the...

I constantly see people who threaten to leave HP because they don't like the limitations here. Unless you are a professional writer who does this for a living, I think you should be careful about doing this and here's why.While you may get more views someplace else, this does not necessarily...

I was reading a Hub on Hubpages, and was concerned to read the advice that the content we use in our Hubs should be unique, not something we've posted elsewhere on the net.I started out on Helium and have nearly 200 articles on that site. When I joined HubPages, I saw it as a great opportunity to...

So we can't copy them if we duplicate articles elsewhere?
