Plagiarism - How Do I Handle It?

by Why9999
2 replies
I just noticed that one guy took one of my blog pages and turned it into an ehow page that is page 1 number 1. I was just about to submit this same page to eza - I'm just learning of the benefits of article writing - but want this jerk's page pulled.

Does anyone have any experience in this area? How can I convince ehow to yank this?

Any help would be much appreciated...

    EHow is part of Demand Media. Use their contact link at the bottom. Give them the full address of the article (do a C/P from your browser) Direct them to YOUR original article along with the date of creation. It may take some time to hear back from them, but you will hear back.

    EHow used to be all general submissions but now everything written for EHow goes through Demand media and they are the only ones that can take the article down. The "author" cannot access the tools to take it down.

      Thank you very much for the info. I will do that. But I have a general question in order to do things properly for the future:

      Can someone give the standard protocol that they use to protect themselves? I could, for example, email these to my email and thus get a date whenever I create a page. What is the best way to protect yourself legally?

      Also, does Google keep a history of your site maps? I have "backups" stored so I can pin down pretty close to when I did it, but I'd like to do it the official way.
