Spotting Bloggers That Steal Your Blog Link
I have taken some time to compare and learn the benefits of having a comment, number of views and the number of pingbacks to your blog. It’s happening behind your back and you have almost no control over the three listed activities. My discovery has been made possible by participating in a free article directory that I always make sure they link back to my blog. Other than having learnt how people can steal links from your site and limit your well deserved credit, I learnt the following:
- Quality articles matter when posting free article directories – You never know who will take interest in your article. Your article may get popular and many people may want to post it in their websites where the credit and links will direct them to your website. As you know as much as I do that first impressions count, poor articles can make you loose potential traffic.
- The topic is your first marketing point – I have written articles in the past for posting on article directories and the internet readers’ reaction tells me that people get attracted more to the topic than the rest of the content.
Having said that, you will notice the three; number of views, pingbacks to your blog and comments to your post. All these three have an impact to defining you and your intensions of participating online. Some people would like to link to your website but not post your article on their website.
This is how they do it. After you have posted an article on an article directory and for some reasons they like it, they take your article and post in their website. They make sure to follow all requirements for a valid pingback and then they remove your article from their website. In other words, if you follow the pingback link from your website, you won’t find the article in their website.
This is how you loose. When people search for information that bring search results with your article referring to the thief website, the traffic only gets to their website and have no way of referring to your website because all the information that could redirect people to your site has been removed. Guess what happens. The visitor then looks around for the information they were looking for in the wrong place – the thief’s website.
I have already hinted on how to spot such website, follow the link from your ping back and you’ll discover if you article is has been posted or not. How do you deal with such a situation: read part 2 to follow very soon or visit my website for website business advice.
