Content Scrappers are one of the serious problems you’ll deal if you own a blog or a website. I totally hate those jerks who use copy-paste method in filling their own blog and earn traffic from your hard work. For individuals who know how to code, they’ll just sit and relax by making auto-blogs. Autoblogs are automated blogs that gets your content through your RSS feeds. Aside from having duplicate content in google’s cache you’ll be competing with yourself too since your post just belongs to you. Anyway, I’ll show you guys a service which protects your blog from being copied and earn traffic if they were stolen.
The image above is a snapshot of the words that is being stolen in my blog. I made a dummy account in blogspot and tried copying my own content from this blog and posted it on my dummy blog. The site where I got this service is called TYNT. What you just need is to register your domain name to TYNT’s site and attach a script to your blog and you’ll get a free account that reports the content which are stolen from your blog.
What really good about TYNT is that they add an attribution link to the content stolen, so if ever they pasted it in their blog there will be a link back to where the content is stolen hence providing you instant traffic in case they topped the SERPs. They also provide a link to the site who copied your content so contacting the content thieves will be easy in your part.
TYNT is available to popular blogging platforms like WordPress and blogger. The only problem i see in using TYNT’s tracking service is that the script used can easily be removed if you change a theme in WordPress(self hosted). I think they should have a plug-in based tracking service instead of attaching a script. Anyway I shouldn’t complain to this one specially that TYNT’s service is free!. If you’re a blogger I strongly suggest that you use TYNT’s service it’s a 4.5 out 5 stars for me.
