What is the solution when someone re-publishes your blog?

Recently, I published an article titled as "8 Best Sources to Study Blockchain Technology"

Here is the URL to the article: hxxps://cointelegraph.com/news/8-best-sources-to-study-blockchain-technology

I found that following website has re-published it by removing the backlink in the author bio.

URL: hxxps://bitgator.pro/2017/08/11/8-best-sources-to-study-blockchain-technology

I tried to contact the website through different mediums, but there is no response.

What's the solution? Does it impact my content?

    Cointelegraph is an authority site so odds are it will beat the duplicate scraped domain/page when trying to rank a webpage.

    When there's two duplicate pages on two separate domains it basically comes down to which one has the better internal/external link profile.

    Note, I didn't look at the scraper site link profile, but I know from experience cointelegraph has been around and ranking pages for a while.

    Not this one only, there are 4-5 links that did the same.

    hxxps://www.btcethereum.com/blog/2017/08/12/8-best-sources-to-study-blockchain-technology

    I hope it won't impact much to my content. Thank you, Yukon.

      That happens to most authority sites, lower, weaker, scraper sites scrape the BIG sites for free content.

      I wouldn't worry about it.

      Keep in mind scraper sites are build it and forget it type sites, those guys aren't usually building backlinks. They're weak in the SERPs.

    You could also look at Mark Hess's product called 'WP Content Guard' that blocks copy-paste thieves.

      Always wanted to use something like that, is there any side effect when using this?

      Show me a site where it's being used if you know of one, if you would.

      Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

    I've only just installed it, but if you google the product and watch the video, you'll see for yourself how it works. It's working well on my site in the test mode (site isn't live yet)

      If it works the way it says on the sales page its of very limited use. Sites that take content like that also use scrapers (not just copy and paste) and don't really care as much about hotlinking images. Theres not way to really protect content on the web. If your browser can read it the source can be extracted without any copying or pasting.

    That's a crazy shame, isn't it! Not sure if it's an honor to be scraped or not. It sounds like this is a matter of accepting the internet way of doing business. Thanks for letting me know.

      Good things are always copied. Just forget about others and keep doing the best.

      Thay is normally the key to success.

    I just ignore it, and the problem goes away. Because where your attention and energy goes, grows. And where you do not place your attention and energy, disappears.

    As your presence expands this is humanly impossible to stop. Take it from a 10 year blogger with thousands of posts and 126 eBooks out there I release, and everything works out OK. Price of having a decent online presence

    You can reach out to them and ask them to remove your content or You can take legal action against them.
