This is one of the stupidest ways to scrape a site that I have see. http://www.hohohehe [dot] info/ He scrapped most of my site (www.topwebsitetips.com) leaving in all the links back to my site. This should be pretty much ignored by the search engines and just add a bunch of free links back to my site. I wonder if Google will consider these "organic links"
You've Got a Link! I remember the days of auto generated adsence pages that scraped the Internet for content, I got many backlinks because of it! They're all pretty much useless now that Google has slapped "made for adsense" sites
Scrapper sites aren't really contributing to backlinks nowadays. They were one of the reasons article submissions worked better than expected earlier
