using of other people articles without credit!

vijay08 · 10-10-2009, 01:06 PM

I noticed something of late, and I would like warrior members to please to explain this to me.

I wrote an article title making a smart stock investment and I submitted the article to four articles directories, after some days I google the title and found it on first page of google and it was on number one (1st) position.

I discovered that this article has been republished by so many sites without my signature or credit the said article to me.

My question now is, is this type of practice allowed or permitted?

Most article directories want credit due to the author. But once the article appears elsewhere without credit to you, all you can do is ask the site owner to remove the article or give you credit. If they are nice, they will do so.

Otherwise, you don't have much recourse. Getting a lawyer is not likely worth it to you. You could politely threaten the site owner with legal action if they don't want to give you credit or remove the article....but unless you carry through with legal action, it might not achieve much.

Frustrating but that's the reality of being online.

The article is definitely your work and all reputable article directories ask for a back link crediting you any time it is reposted. You should ask the webmaster to do so and if not threaten with legal action. You definitely have the right.
