What To Do When Your Website Copy is Plagiarized
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
But it's no fun when a competitor changes their website to look like yours and copies the content.
This happened to a client of mine and he's fighting back.
Don't let copycats steal your idea. Know how to confront and neutralize.

Zara Altair OMgoodness never thought someone would copy a site!!! how childish and how awful for the creator
ReplyDeleteThis is a GREAT post Zara!!!
Jeff Bond Yeah. #sucks
ReplyDeleteMicheleElys MER I'd read about this sort of thing happening but it feels very strange and kinda like intellectual rape when the whole thing is copied.
ReplyDeleteMicheleElys MER I had another client who implemented this strategy. I wrote tons of educational material about website and copy, wrote unique customer targeted content for his new website. actationnow.com - SEO for a New Website
ReplyDeleteAfter it was done, his sister-in-law, "in marketing," told him he needed more content (content is king thinking) so he copied and pasted content, including images from other sites, "created" testimonials, etc. I was so glad my name was not attached to that project.
Zara Altair WOW, can't imagine copying someone' else work or words/content. It's personal!! It's their life experience.
ReplyDeleteA little funny note on this. I am a Superhost on AirBnB, a lady up the street copied my description for her place LOL She had her own fotos LOLOL I thought it was hilarious she could not write her own welcoming to her place. hehehehe it tickled me,
However, this stealing a website content. WOW
Zara Altair it is a rape of IP!!! But it's still a _WOW your kidding, for a website that could be personal, free flowing from the internal parts of self _
