Is There a Whois function for Blogger Blogs?

It was going to happen sooner of later. Someone took one of my EZA articles, posted it on their Blogger Blog. That's great. That's how it's supposed to work. But they removed the links back to my site. The Blog has no contact page, the poster's name isn't a link to his email. No contact form either.

Is there a way to find out who owns a Blogger Blog so I can kindly ask him to put the links back in?

The lesson learned here fro some of you is to take full advantage of Google Alerts! I always set up an alert for every one of my web properties, article names, my name, and anything else that is somewhat unique to my business. That way, when someone else takes about my piece of the web, I hear about it. My Analytics would have never shown me this because there is no back link.

  • I have not heard of whois for bloggers blog.

    But if the bloggers uses the blog under a domain name, you can check the whois at any domain name registrar website if he does not subscribe to those whois privacy services. it would be great if there is a blogger's whois
  • You can scour the blog for any contact details that the person may have on there. You could also contact Blogger support or even Google themselves. It'd probably take ages for them to respond but if its worth it to you go ahead and do it.

    I'd personally charge it to the game and keep rolling. Sh!t like that happens man, I mean come on, its the internet dude.
  • maybe for blogspot.com, blogger.com...Google can provide the whois?

    • Ya, they're using a blogspot domain name.

      There's no identifiable contact info. anywhere.

      If there's no easy way to deal with this, I'll ignore it. It's just irritating.

      Worst case, I'll leave a comment to my own article! lol

    • Eric,

      That's perfect. I'll take that route.

      Kirk,

      Thanks, but the content is EZA content copied to Blogger, not Blogger-hosted content. But thanks!
