168: Why Registering Your Copyright Is Important

Podcast

“Pretty much anything of yours that’s used online without your permission is considered an infringement of copyright.”

What if I told you that you may be losing tons of money from others illegally using your work? And what if you knew exactly how to get that money that is rightfully yours? Today on NION Radio, we’re talking about exactly that, why registering your copyright is important.

As a photographer, I have found my images being used in many different places without my permission. While much of it is harmless, I have found that sometimes they are being used to sell products for other companies, and as they are circumventing my normal fee, I can claim that lost revenue in court. Learn how to register your copyright for your work, why that’s important, and how you can use technology to do the hard work for you and get you paid.
