What can be copyrighted on a blog?




When it comes to blogs, just about every element of a published blog can be copyrighted. Bloggers can have copyrighted

  •  graphics
  •  text from blog posts
  • blog layouts (sidebars, headers, gadgets)
  • and photographs on blogs

I started my personal blog in 2012 and at that time I chose to copyright my blog's header/logo. However, under the copyright law, everything that an author publishes is automatically protected under copyright law. Yet, those who do not file for copyright protection and pay the $35 fee may not have the same benefits as others who fall under the automatic copyright protection.
