How horrible Sandy! That was a great post you wrote–I guess copying is a terrible form of flattery. I am glad you are seeing results.

 

What about sites that post article verbatims but just the first paragraph and then a link to the original post? That happens to me all the time, but I haven't done anything about it yet.

I've seen those too but I tend to ignore them because they haven't scraped the entire content and they usually won't rank.

I'm digging my way out of some serious debt at

Given what has been happening across the blogosphere, I wrote a post about how to prevent people from stealing your content, and what you can do if someone does steal it.

 

Please check it out and promote.  I think this problem is getting worse, and we need to get the word out to be vigilent.

Thanks!

Good article – I haven't had to deal with this  yet (or maybe I do and don't know it ), so I've bookmarked as a resource.

Hey! Great info!

On other hand, it is also a compliment because it means you are producing quality writing that people would want to steal in the first place! (although they should just link to your post instead of taking credit for it).
