Since it’s common to share music through internet somehow it has also become more common to people to republish whole blog posts and images. Since I’ve done some jobs as a photographer I have a different mindset than the people who thinks it’s okay to copy and share whatever you want.

Good post. Stumbled it for you.

I’ve had a number of my articles copied in their entirety on other websites. I think this is a common problem for bloggers. Fortunately, it’s usually easy to take care of by contacting the host of the offending site, but it’s still a hassle and can cause indexing problems with Google.

Fairshare.cc offers a great service for free where you subscribe through rss and they send you duplicated versions of your site’s content.

Rich and Zuzanna I am glad that you will find use of this information. I am also aware of the risk taken when deciding to share content online but it shue would be nice if we could have the good old days back again when it comes to these things.

Peace and Light

I write a lot of original content on several blogs and I maintain a photoblog. When I began blogging and sharing original photos several years ago I understood that it would probably be stolen at some point; this doe not mean I agree with it nor am okay with it. It does explain why I receive so many things through the various social medias that are identical to 5,10,15 or more other sites with the exact same material. Talk about clogging up the social media site with junk. I, as an individual, find it tedious and nearly impossible to track down the original source of the material. I think you should either create it yourself or give proper credit in accordance with the copyright’s terms of use. Your post does provide some valuable links to great resources for those who wish to see where there content is being used on the net.
