Content stolen what to do

Honestly. I think most people are just trying to provide a certain article to their website. They don't take into consideration that somebody is going to be this mad about it.

Especially when it comes to them leaving the original author intact. Not everybody takes into consideration, the Seo, or leaving a link back.

Just my 2 cents from a common sense angle.

 

I agree with Denise. If the matter can be solved politely by just writing email then go for it. Else contact there web host and explain them your situation. Remember to back yourself up with all the proof's you can while writing it to them.

BLACK HAT TIP: If he has Google ads then let all of us know and we will click his site ads all day long for numerous days. This will teach him a lesson and shall get him banned from Google for good.

 

since it is using full feed. at the bottom of the post, you put a copyright and link back to your site.

 

Sounds irrational.

 

If he has Google ads , mail to google adwords support cause they are very serious about copyrighted material.If you can prove that you are the original owner the thief will be banned.

 

I read somewhere that its sometimes worth inserting a hard-wired (not relative) url in the middle of your post. If someone wants to scrape it and.or steal the rss - it can often mean that you still get a link out of the transaction.

It obviously doesn't solve your problem - but in many cases - trying to get proper resolution will result in a significant waste of your time without any real action.

i'm sad for you but there is nothink you can do.

you can only report it to google

 

But there is something that can be done.

Certainly, filing a DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) complaint with Google can get it removed from Google's results.

But filing a complaint with the owner of the website - and if that doesn't work, the site's webhost - can get your copyrighted material removed from the thief's site.

best,
Denise

 

This is the worst, it happens all to often. Best thing to do first is email and call them out very nicely. If they dont remove it then you should contact an attorney.

 

ok friend use this link and notice GOOGLE
http://www.google.com/contact/spamreport.html

 

give one chance to thief to correct his mistake . If it don't work then Use DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act)

 

hmm....why you'll get penalized while you have the original content? Google will crawl you first so you'll not get discounted. and one more, how to use DMCA?

 

you can make a complaint to google about htis ..

 

This happens all the time, its not even worth worrying about. google will just filter their site as duplicate content.

 

I have the same problem, but basically my competitors are copying my headline text for each product/article and then other sites are copying off them and basically they're using my personally written headline and review (it's about 1-3 sentences) and they're getting indexed for those phrases over my own site which Google seems to index a day after it indexes them for the content I wrote first.

If the googlebot spiders were to visit my site first, they would see that these sites are stealing the headlines off me. I've already tried contacting the competitors, but they do nothing. I've contacted their host - but their host doesn't reply - seems like rocksolid hosting if you want to run a scam/phishing site fyi. Anyways, it's so bullshit - I'd contact Google - but I know they'll give me some foot-in-mouth reply like "We can't do anything about it, you should contact them or a lawyer"...which doesn't exactly help - since it's a big flaw in Google's indexing scheme.

 

I have heard of people using the <more> tag when posting to limit what they can steal when using rss feeds

 

I come to this thread by Google. This guy (windowsvistaplace) is also using all my post content without notify me at all. I believe there are a lot of victims like me and you. I have send him a email and close to 24 hours now. He hasn't taken down my content from his website also.

Also, my blog has PR in grey colour. I wonder if Google penalized me because of assuming i'm the duplicated content. This is just wasting my time to do all this. I still haven't figure out how to file the DMCA report. One question, what if he has already filed DMCA report againt my blog? Is that possible?

 

If your content is new and stolen soon after you posted it, it is technically possible for google to index the stolen content before the original and consider the later as duplicate...

 

So, what should we do for this kind of case? Will filing the DMCA report suppose to fix this?
