   Can I post my original work here already published in my personal blog?
   
   While signing up, we are made to accept the condition that we will not copy material from other web sites as it is, while creating our hubs. But what if that material appearing on other web site is also my original work? I see 3 possibilities here:
   
   1. I will be allowed to publish it here, since it is originally written by me (this I see as the most likely possibility)
   
   2. I will be allowed to publish it only after deleting the post from my personal blog
   
   3. I will not be allowed to publish it here, come what may as it was published elsewhere before.

   HubPages requires that any and all material posted by its writers be exclusive to this site - in other words, it can't appear anywhere else.
   
   You can recycle stuff that originally appeared on your blog, as long as you delete the blog version(s) first before posting the material on HP.

   If it is published elsewhere and you publish here it is duplicate content and not allowed. If you desire to publish here it must first be deleted elsewhere and allow enough time for Google to de-index it. IIf an article is duplicate content you will get a warning from HP.

   No, the content has to be original. And if you delete it from the blog, it may still show up in archived web pages and quotes from others, and thus not as original.

      Thanks. That goes near the third possibility I envisaged.
