Good Info keep it up

have a nice day

If I take anyone’s content ever it always has back links to the source. I never steal stuff and call it my own. Unless I bought the private label rights to have that right.

What also ticks me off is when people steal my aweber feed and auto-post my emails on their blog. I found 17 people doing that to me.

Total lack or respect and I feel it is an invasion of privacy.

This is just one aspect of plagiarism in general. We’ve got some ethical questioning of whether it is right or wrong in our society right now, so until that gets resolved, I think it will remain a problem. E.g. see New York Times OpEd from early August 2010 about why plagiarism is NOT immoral versus opposing view from Democrat Charles Schumer Congressman endorsing copyright protection for fashion designers.

In the meantime, Copyscape is an excellent suggestion. There are also several anti-plagiarism tools out there, one of which is Grammerly.com.

Thank you, Ching Ya, for your informative article.

And the worst thing is when established article sites like ‘articlebase.com’ approve scrapped content without checking. Anyone can submit articles to a site like articlebase and no matter how many DMCA I raise, I will not be able to deal with the problem.

I run a article directory too, but I ensure that people only submit original content. Check everything thought copyscape. It’s surprising that sites like articlebase who are infact ‘google adsense parterns’ allow scrapped content. These websites have thousands of backlinks and therefore the chances are that their scrapped content will rank high up than the original article. So these sites should really hire quality labor and ensure scrapped content does not go live.

But we are in a helpless situation here where the spammers win unless you have the time and energy required to keep sending copyright emails.

One week she submitted a ver batim copy of a CNN article from the previous day (not a headline article, but one that is in a niche that I follow). I very quickly spot-checked other articles of hers (by doing a copy/paste of a few sentences into Google).

Yeah, they all found identical content on other sites – a wide variety of sites (many of which seemed to be small, single-person sites).

Needless to say, the articles were purged from the site minutes later and I notified the “writer” that she was no longer welcome on the staff.

The funny thing is that she feigned ignorance and accused me of being a homophobe (the article touched on the treatment of a homosexual man several decades ago, but obviously this was not the reason for my negative reaction to the article submission).

Responsible site owners definitely don’t want plagiarized content on their site.

One thing that happened to me last year ( or maybe even now ) is image theft. No matter what you do , people can steal your images and post them in their own blog / sites / portfolios , only way to avoid this is putting an ugly watermark on your images , or if a good samaritan tells you your images have been ripped.
