Of late, it has come to my attention that someone is stealing this site’s (my) content.

I guess I should be honored that I am writing something that someone finds useful.  On the other hand, it offends my sensibilities that these folks did not have the common courtesy to request the right to reproduce my content — which by the way, I would have granted– or provide a link to or mention of my original posting. Afterall as a BLOG publisher I want people to read my materials.

Anyway I found a wonderful posting on Lorelle’s site that provides a brief how-to guide on dealing with content theft. I highly recommend you read Lorelle’s  articles/ post s on the subject (and there are quite a few).

As for my journey into this realm, I’ll add brief notes of what I have done in this post (so watch for updates here):

  1. My first activity was to send the offending site a Cease & Desist demand (you can find guides on how-to write these by searching the web).  In the demand, I allowed that even at this late stage I would grant them permission to use my content if they met certain conditions such as asking me for permission and providing links to the original pages. This action was not as easy to accomplish as you might think.  Their site has no contact page… so I posted the cease and desist demand as a comment to every posting of mine that I could easily find as a WordPress Comment.
