    I just found out that a guy has been stealing my articles and posting them on his blog.

    What is the best thing i can do to prevent this from happening?

    Thank you.

    Content the website owner and ask them to remove the content. If no response file a DMCA request.

    Consider it a compliment!

    You should just ask that they link back to your site- backlinks are always important in SEO!

    Use Copyscape for anti-plagiarism.

    Maybe you can block the IP address's theft from your cPanel in your hosting.

    just deal with it,it's so common
    of-course you can ask him to remove your content
    but i think there is too many people who do that
    you can ask him to put your link at least at the end of article
