Thanks for pointing this out. This explains the results I've been seeing in tests of ripping off my own sites on different servers and services (as a publisher, I constantly see my content in places I didn't authorize it.)

The concern is that I can easily knock off my own sites, get them up to traffic and ranking, then drive consistent revenue before I see drop off on the original site. Since this kind of thing is very easy to do, publishers and domainers alike need to diversify their revenue or risk getting knocked off.

Best,

Justin

Check, and the sad part is that I'm having a hard time getting one of my sites indexed by G but the sites that steal my blogs, word for word, get ranked pretty high.

Identify them and block their IP.
