Hey,
I got an interesting question here.
My site:
Botanical Slimming Soft Gel

I have purchased and invested a lot of quality content into the website but yet I am finding that other websites use the content and get it indexed even before my website is indexed with it.

Running through some of the content with copyscape I find that it appears word for word on other sites but yet my site is not in the copyscape search. The funny thing is that I uploaded it prior to ALL of them.

Is there a reason that my articles are not being indexed by google? And no I know it isn't sandbox because my site is still in the top 100 just my articles are not being indexed for some reason?

      Yes I have also pinged it. It was on the 5th term just 2 weeks ago but then it suddenly dropped to 47 and I also notice that they failed to index the content pages.

        I can see you have 32 pages indexed and this is the number of posts in your blog (according to the categories menu on your footer). Is that correct?
        If so, what is exactly your problem.

          Hmm for some reason when I search through copyscape for content already on my blog it does not trip any searches with my blog. It only shows feeds and other sites that siphon contnet from my blog.

          I am concerned that if this is so that google might mistaken my blog as copying content or an auto blog.

          The problem in short is I am curious why copyscape isn't tripping my content that is already on my blog instead only tripping my content that is on other people site. Also copsycape is using google to search the content .

            How do you search on copyscape? I use the free version and enter the URL of the page I want to check. If you do it this way, the only results you will get are other pages with content matching your, but not your own URL.

      Check your robots.txt and if you've got "noindex" meta inserted in the HTML.

    They are scraping your WP-Feed.

    Change your feed to snippet...

    Wp-Admin > Settings > Reading > For each article in a feed, show > Summary

    Also, make it a habit to add your anchor-text keyword in the first sentence of each article/page, make that anchor-text link directly to the same exact page.

    This way If they still scrape the article, you might stand a chance of getting a one-way backlink. Most scrapers are so damn lazy, they never look at pages once the site is up & running.

    If you are worry about indexing your pages, i should say that 34 pages of the domain you said are indexed yet and if you are worry about the rankig of them, you should optimize them using on-page and off-page optimization techniques.

    I tried to check out your site but it was loading super slow. I did see you have pages indexed in google. If not all of them try checking out your internal linking structure to make sure all links are good ones. also check out webmaster tools and see if you have any crawl errors.
