I think many bloggers and Gseners have encountered this situation before and currently: your hardworks and articles has been copied words-and-words from your site and used as "their content". Some of the copycats may even use them to earn money from Adsense! Recently, I have noticed at least two sites that have copied my site's articles.

One is Yuki, once a frequent poster in Adsense Help Forum. She has copied nearly all the articles without any paraphrasing. When I asked her to remove the articles, she claims that all of them are the gift to her from her friend. LOL. I then requested her to remove the articles immediately and she said she don't know which articles that have been copied from mine. She further defended that those gifts are "handwritten" gift that make her hard to remove. LOL again. At the end, after a long struggle, she finally removed them and has now copied from the others. Sigh~

Another site that I have detected is www.sharedhelp.com/forum. The Admin, again, has copied nearly all of the articles without any acknowledgement. This is somehow ridiculous. I told the admin to remove, and my relevant post has even been deleted. Now, this site still contains those articles of mine. Please be aware of that.

So how can one defend his/her site? The easiest solution is to post a warning banner from Copyscape. I also chose one to put on bottom. This is the minimum level of defend. In fact, if the copycat really wants to copy, this banner will hence have no effects on that. Therefore, you need to have the second defense line. This is a little trick of HTML.

The one I once used was:

You have to put it into the HEAD section of your HTML template. Through this way, visitors are no longer able to right click in your site, nor highlight the text by left click. There are also some HTML-related methods that can popup a warning window when your visitors are trying to copy from your site. Since the one above is powerful enough, I am going to reveal secrets here.

Good luck!

G'day,

I just did a quick test on the copying protection that you put on your posts, and just want to let you know that I was still able to highlight some text on this post and preform the key-combinations to copy and paste some text into notepad. Just as a test, a small snippet that I copy is show below...

I was interested in your techniques as I just started my blog and am concern about other people copying the text as well.

Sorry, I don't have any good suggestions to stop the copying.

Cheers,

This might be perfect for you - www.rightclickrevenue.com <- non-affiliate link

Protects images, text, but allows people to right click on links and still get there normal content menu. It really is a great product and has a growing affiliate program.

I'd love if just by doing what you say we could stop other from copying, but the fact is that one way or another it's fairly easy to break each and every kind of defense system.

I tried using several methods, but then I realized that it's just something more to worry about all the time, so I just gave up on that. Look at it this way, if somebody reads what you wrote and applies it, then the purpose of you writing it is fulfilled whether he knows that u wrote or not.

At least in my case, when I write something I don't expect any sort of thanks, if it comes I welcome it, and if not, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, I just felt like saying something :)

My browser has an option in its settings menu to ignore any code that tries to disable the right-click menu or interferes with selecting and copying text.

Hi 666,

You are right. This method is getting less effective in the new browsers. I am still figuring out a new way to tackle that.

Thanks.
