   Very cool, but I’m still confused. You’d have to enter an exact phrase, or simply cut & paste your entire post into the search criteria? So you’d have to do it each time you posted?

   This sounds like a cool trick to catch those lazy webmasters who use auto-blogging softwares to steal contents for their Google Ad-sense Blogs. I will try it out. Thanks for the tip.

   I think you should read the post slowly again. The steps are simple. I wish I can help make it simpler but the author already did a great job

   Great tip! It was so good I actually stumbled it.

   I’ve been using google alerts to find blogs with a similar topic to my blog, but hadn’t thought to use it to look for scrapers.

   Thanks!

   NaijaEcash, since the author of this blog is a close friend of mine, I think I’ll just ask him about it later. If nobody could understand my question, I guess I didn’t word it properly, because it was not the steps I was questioning, but the search terms.

   The insult was not necessary.
