Someone stealing my code

Discussion in 'AdSense' started by quicksilver101, Apr 7, 2008.

    My total page impressions do not add up. My channels add upto approx 98% of total impressions.

    This is also verified as i have recently gained a couple of clicks each day that earn nothing and also do not add up.

    I have set up the allowed sites so i hopefully won't get banned but i want to catch this f***** and i want to make him pay. Someone is obviously completely duplicating my site yes? A proxy maybe?

    How can i find the source and give this person a peice of my mind?

    and why in the world someone would steal your code to make you money? you must have some ad code not associated with channels yet

    Well obviously they wouldnt be using my code but theyre stealing a large chunk of my sites source code which includes the adsense code. I dont care about the adsense part of it i care about the fact someone is using my sites source code.

    No i have all channels recognised, besides this has only started happening in the past few days and i have added nothing in terms of new ads in the last few days.

    if thats what you think, then use copyscape to find who's copying your site. ofcourse the thief stealing your content needs to get the pages indexed for you to be able to track the theft

    As you've already setup 'allowed sites' you'll be notified (in your account) when your adsense code shows up on another site that isn't on your allowed list. They will also let you know the url of the site that is showing your code.

    If that guy just copy your Adsense code, but not the content, it is quite hard to trace.

    The Allowed Sites will stop him from doing so, but I think it may just be that you forgot to add a channel to one of your websites ;)
