A typical content syndication agreement usually involves some form of compensation to the original author. This can be as little as acknowledging the author’s name. It could include the author’s name and website address. The agreement might even include monetary compensation.

A content syndication agreement can be for one piece of content or for many. It can also be an ongoing agreement under which the author or authors agree to provide periodical pieces of content that will then be published on a daily or otherwise regular basis. With the explosion of web publishing tools in the past few years, it has become easier and easier for content to be syndicated online.
