    I think there is nothing as such you can do to protect the content. Just this that you can place a copyright statement that's it.

    If anyone has some idea... do share

    I was wandering about this as well. Does google recognize where the information first came from? This could be an issue for higher pr domains stealing info from lower ones.

    It does not need much money if you want to start your own blog... if you are so much worried about the content... my suggestion if to start your own blog under your website... everything you will be getting is readymade and you can start in just a click....

    I would not worry about this until it actually happens. Then you decide what to do. There are couple of options. Search the forums since this was discussed many times...

    If the content is copied on a large scale, you can trace the webmaster and lodge a complaint.

    If your content is copied automatically then just throw in some links to your own blog or other posts on your blog and those will be copied also (then at least you have some traffic generated). What do you think about it?

    Add copyright message to feeds with a link back to you that appears in feed only not in post....it will appear where copied stuff are placed b'coz most copy is done usaing rss feeds...(use postPost wordpress plugin find it in ma blog http://bloggingtruths.com)

    Also verify your blog in google webmaster console and make a sitemap. So google would know you are d owner

    Ping the pinging services before the spammers do..

    Install Google alerts. That will help you in tracking little bit on the phrases that get copied from your site.

    And are there any other methods of knowing if your stuff has been copied apart from running the article(s) through copyscape.com ?

    The max you can do is notify the copier through email and tell their web-host.
