I’m amazed sometimes by how many sites are out there who have copied my content. Occasionally I even see some of my better articles re-appear on sites like digg.com. I’d love to be able to stop this and hopefully Blogwerx is a step in the right direction.
Scoble came across Blogwerx recently who are working on tools that will help track splogs and other sites that are copying your content. I’ve just registered for an account and added my feed, but no results are showing yet.
I’m not sure what I’m supposed to do armed with the lists of sites who are ripping off my blog. I could contact each one, which would take an eternity, and ask them to remove my content. I’ll probably be ignored so this would be a total waste of time. It’s very similar to a service I recently evaluated at work that allowed you to track who was using your identity online, but didn’t provide the tools to go after the fraudsters.
Do you have a problem with splogs, or do you have any tips for stopping content theft?
