It's recommended to do some kind of verification if you're posting articles that can be found elsewhere because people have impersonated others trying to get money before. You could make a text file that says Steemit or something like that in the website's root directory and link it here if you didn't want to do something more public.

I see, so when a robot identifies this is similar to content elsewhere, and i do not verify I am the elsewhere source, i get lower ranked in some way? THANKS for helping understand
