There are a few ways that you can witness content scrapers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a01. Perform a Google Search<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It is the easiest way of finding the content scrapers who are robbing your content. You have to perform a Google Search with the titles of your posts. While it does sound like a tedious method of finding them, there are probabilities that you may come across a few.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">2. Trackbacks<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Using internal links in your posts will get a trackback when a website robs your content and links back to you. This way, you can spot the content scraper without much effort.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">But, if you are using\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/akismet.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Akismet<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">, many of these trackbacks will show up in your spam folder. You have to go through those to spot them as well. Note: This method only works if you have internal links.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">3. Ahrefs- The SEO Toolset<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">You can use an SEO tool like\u00a0<\/span><a class=\"editor-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/ahrefs.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Ahrefs<\/span><\/a><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0to observe your backlinks and watch out for your scraped content.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">4. Google Webmaster Tools<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0Google Webmaster Tools can also help you to find scrapers. Below the &#8216;Traffic&#8217; area, you will notice an option named &#8216;Links to Your Site.&#8217; There are possibilities that you will find some scrapers on this list. There may be lots of links that are pointing to your pages.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">5. Use Google Alerts<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This tool helps you to get notifications whenever a certain keyword gets indexed on Google. You can also utilize it to find content scrapers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Whenever you publish a post, you can set up a Google Alert for the exact title of your post. You will be notified when someone does content scraping and republishes a post with the same title.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">How to Deal with Content Scrapers<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">You can deal with content scrapers in many different ways: the Do Nothing Approach, Take Down approach, or Take Advantage approach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Let&#8217;sLet&#8217;s take a look at each one.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">1. The Do-Nothing Approach<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This is the easiest and simplest approach you can take. Generally, most popular bloggers follow this because it takes too much time to fight the scrapers and waste energy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The famous blogs do not worry about it all because they are the authority website in googles eye.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">However, this approach is not suitable for others because the smart content scrappers present the stolen posts as their own, and the original website becomes the scrapers in Google&#8217;s eye.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">2. Take Down Approach<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This approach is opposite to the &#8216;Do Nothing Approach.&#8217; In this approach, contact the scrappers directly and ask them to take back the content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">You can also demand to give you credit as the original content source. If they disagree, you can file a (DCMA) Digital Millennium Copyright Act with their server host.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The other way you can take them down is by redirecting them to a dummy feed, where you can send them huge text feeds of gibberish or even send them back to their own server. Later, it will result in an infinite loop that will crash their website.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">3. Limit Individual IP Addresses<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">When you get to know who steals your content, you should block the IPs from which it is scraping your content. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Access your logs for their IP address, and then block it with something like this in your root .htaccess file:<\/span><\/p>\n<pre><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> Deny from 123.456.789<\/span><\/pre>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">How to Take Advantage of Content Scrapers<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">This approach helps to take advantage of content scrapers. It can help you make extra bucks and help in your SEO as well.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Most of the content scrapers use your RSS Feed to Robb your content. So you can take advantage of them by following ways:<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">1. Adding Internal Links<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0\u2013<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">It is essential to create as many interlinks as possible within your site. These links point to your other articles relevant to the one readers are currently reading. The internal links in your article help you increase page views and reduce the bounce rate on your site.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> Secondly, When someone loots your content, they may keep these links intact. And that can help you get backlinks from the people stealing your content.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> Lastly, it allows you to swipe their audience. You have to place your inlinks on interesting keywords and make it tempting to click them. When this article is robbed, the audience of the scraper&#8217;s website may click on it too. This way, you will also end up stealing the scraper&#8217;s audience.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">2.<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0Auto Link Keywords with Affiliate Links<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Following content scraping, there are possibilities that you may lose some traffic. But, you can still take advantage of that by adding affiliate links to certain keywords. You can use plugins such as SEO Smart Links, Ninja Affiliate, and ThirstyAffiliates to replace assigned keywords with affiliate links automatically.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">3. Utilizing RSS Footer<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">\u00a0\u2013 <\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">The All in One SEO Plugin helps to add custom items to your RSS Footer. You can use your footer to add anything you want.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">For example- You can promote your own products to their RSS readers by adding banners. Once someone steals your content, those banners will also appear on your scraper&#8217;s website. By this, you can get a backlink to your original article from scraper&#8217;s site, which lets the search engines, Google, and others know that you are the authority.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">4. Reduce and Prevent Content Scraping &#8211; Full vs. Summary RSS Feed<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Aside from interlinking, auto-linking keywords with affiliate links, and Utilizing RSS Footer, you can switch to a summary RSS feed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">There is a debate in the blogging community whether to have a full RSS feed or summary RSS feed. Without going into details, one of the benefits of having a Summary Only RSS feed is that it helps to prevent content scraping in WordPress.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">You can change the settings by visiting your WordPress admin panel and navigating to\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Settings \u00bb Reading<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">. There, change the settings for each article in a feed show summary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">In this way, only the summary for the RSS feed will be visible, and the content scrapers will not be able to steal the complete feed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>To Conclude<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Content scraping is when content is stolen and then republished on another site without the knowledge and permission of the owner. Here, we have discussed how you can catch content scrappers, how to deal with them, and how to take advantage of content scrappers. And finally, how you can prevent content scraping in WordPress.<br \/>\nWe hope this article helped you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you want to prevent content scraping in WordPress?
