Thanks. I must start looking into this as I’m developing a few more blogs at the moment
Way to take matters into your hands and have the offending site shut down. Good work! I am surprised to see Google’s Adsense people acted quickly. Did they simply agree with you, or did you have to prove they copied your work?
I recently had someone copy a review I wrote, they even hotlinked my images (only reason I knew they even copied it).
After sending them an email, they removed it. If they hadn’t have, I would have had to fill in a DMCA form I believe.
Copyscape is very good for hunting down any webpages containing your words, and I’ve also got a script that adds a logo to all images that get hotlinked.
I had someone copy an article in my Internet security site. I meant to send them an email asking them to please remove it. The site in question looked like it had all duplicate content, hastily put together with a bunch of Google Adsense ads. Pretty pathetic copying the work of others without permission. I can’t see them getting a lot of traffic or revenue from Google Adsense though, as I said it is full of duplicate content. I’m sure Google will penalize the site for using duplicate content.
Those sites are created quickly for the sole purpose of trying to generate income from AdSense. The are many of them out there, and they don’t generate very much, if anything at all. Once Google finds out, their AdSense account will be terminated.
