Site Using other Blogs Posts
I wanted to share with you a site that copied my entire blog post from yesterday and put it up on their blog. The only way that I found out was through Deb at Living Montessori Now. I’m not sure if there are other bloggers work on this site, but it looked like there could be. I just wanted to let everyone know in case it was theirs! I have asked that the writer take down my post and to stop copying. I hope that they do! Here the link if you want to check it out.

*UPDATE* They are using alot of blog posts and it seems as if it is automatically posting the information. I found this post on the new list! š I am also seeing posts from my other blog too. Hmmm…not really sure what to do!

Jessica, I am really upset, but there isnt much I can do. I told them to stop, but I guess that short of getting a lawyer involved there isnt much else. Do you have another idea? I would love to hear it!!!!!

You have a blogger site. Go to the top of your dashboard and Report Abuse.

That’s terrible! You may want to start stamping/marking your photos with your name or the name of your blog, like other sites are doing (like I should be doing!). You can also try making your photos right-click disabled (I do that in my password-protected picture galleries). That means if someone right clicks on your photo to copy it, they won’t be able to!

They have a Facebook page, maybe you can report them to Facebook (I don’t know if your photos are on their FB page). There is a link to the left that says “Report Page.” http://www.facebook.com/pages/Casa-de-los-Ni%C3%B1os-Las-Terrenas/298270750214394

Suzanne~ I tried that, but they have to be a google service to do anything! š
Lisa~ I should mark the photos, but it so much work! š Thanks for sharing the FB page. I hadnt seen that. I messaged them. We’ll see. I’m starting to think there isnt much I can do. They seem to have it set up to automatically post them! š

Stephanie, I sent you an e-mail about this yesterday. There are some steps you can take in your blog code to foil bloggers who are stealing posts through automatic feed.
I did notice that the “blog” section of the site was not accessible from the home page of the site. You needed the address to get there.

This site is weird. They don’t even have ads, so how do they profit by stealing blog posts. They also make no attempt to conceal that the posts aren’t their posts.
