    I noticed one of my articles that I posted on the 10th of May on my blog (link next to my avatar) was copied by another guy and posted on his wordpress hosted blog on the 13th of May, without permision and whithout giving me any credit.

    I already messaged him to remove the article asap and also submitted the infringement to google as well. Anything else I can do?

    Thanks!

    how did you submit the infringement to Google? i never had any luck while contacting Google support forums with the same
    I don't think you can do much in this case, as its quite common nowadays. people setup bots and they keep copying/pasting

    Send a DMCA notice to the hosting company he is using.

    Sounds good but that's not a permanent solution i think because leechers are everywhere and the number is keep on increasing on a daily basis
