Can I use your recipes and photos on my blog, website or magazine?

RECIPES – No. I do not allow republication of my written content, post, recipe or instructions without prior consent. If you copy and paste any of my written content it is a copyright infringement and will negatively affect how Google ranks both our pages. Please contact me directly if you would like to use a recipe or written content. I am having to get tough on this one as so many websites are copying my work and even selling it for profit.

PHOTOS – Yes, great stuff, thanks for sharing BUT I only give permission if you CREDIT the source of my photos. You must include a link back to the recipe the photo came from AND a link to ditchthecarbs.com An example might look like this “Check out the most amazing low carb chocolate cake from Ditch The Carbs. They have a great selection of low carb, gluten-free, grain-free and no added sugar recipes for the whole family” (OK so you don’t have to be quite that glowing, although it would be nice, you get the idea).

And by all means, share, share, share on Facebook or Pinterest using my links or sharing my recipe’s URL. I work darn hard on this website and would love it for more people to hear about DTC from the correct source 🙂 I report pages that cut and paste my recipes onto Facebook without linking back to me (you know who you are ).
