Google is publishing me because someone copied my content

I run a small website that does not have much influence.

A big news website, 20 years old and very authoritative in my niche decided to copy and paste 800-1,000 word articles from my website and basically give me no credit at all.

When I Google search the titles of my articles all I see is their copies of my articles and my own articles don't appear on Google at all.

I contacted the owner of the news websites and he added links to my website underneath each article. Basically I'm getting quality backlinks but my articles are still absolutely buried in Google when I search for the titles.

How come when someone copies content Google punishes the website that published it in the first place? That doesn't make sense.

Are the good quality backlinks going to help my website rank overall even with the plagurism?

HTTP-HTTPS redirects: domain level or each URL?

Googling for answers seems to give conflicting answers here. We have a domain that has been HTTP but some individual URLs have been HTTPS (like form pages). We are about to deploy HTTPS redirect on the server to get everything going to https://www.domain.com . Do we have to go to the effort of a big 301 redirect list of all page-level URLs without Google dropping our earned page rank? Thanks all! submitted by /u/runtmc2 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/31dJ82b

One website, two properties (domains)

I wasn't sure how to frame that title so let me explain; Due to error on my part, I have ended up with, a www.xyz.com , version of my website, and one that's just xyz.com. Now I'm tracking my traffic differently on GSC and GA. I'm not sure how to feel about this. Is there anyone with a similar situation? Should I just go on like usual or are there things I need to start doing differently? Kindly advise. submitted by /u/Blessed_Dude_101010 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/87Z2MRA
