A Website Has Stolen My Content by Thewhizzkid1(m): 7:56am On Jan 20, 2018
Good morning all. I just discovered a website has two of my contents on their blog. They stole two articles from my blog and posted on their blog. I'm so angry and upset. Please what actions should I take?

No action... just keep working hard and make sure you always index your contents. smiley

Write a blogpost on your blog notifying the public that 'that website" stole your blogposts. Mention the particula website URL, info in their about section, the affected blogposts, take screenshots of the thieving site&blogposts, with date, and use the screenshots in your blogpost. Link back to the thieving site from your blogpost.

When your article is published, send a mail to the admin of the thieving site notifying them about your article, use their contact form, paste your blogpost links there

Look for the contact info for the domain owner(whois), send them a mail, with the link of your blogpost about your stolen articles.

Publish your blogpost on NL.

Why all the above: some blog owners could employ writers to publish content on their site. The(blog owner) might not know the articles are copy pasted from somewhere else. When they get to know, they would gladly take the articles down and deal with the copy paste publishers.

Report to the nearest Police Station.

But on the other hand, there is something called PLAGIARISM.
Once your site has been indexed, search spiders crawl your website and recognise your content as original. Any website that copies your content would only be committing the sin called plagiarism and this sabotages SEO in the meanest way.

So long as you have integrated a SITEMAP and submitted same SITEMAP to search engines for better indexing, sit back and stop worrying about bloggers copying your content. They only do so at their own peril.
