What to do about sploggers?
-
Any clue? For the uninitiated: jerks with some technical know-how setup a framework for processing a variety of RSS feeds into something that seems to be a real web site but isn’t, then rakes in the dough on advertising and affiliate programs and the like. They steal content and make money off it while you get the fig.
So, what to do? Ignore them? Take action? Use a plugin? Any experiences?
My one thought was to hardcode a link back to my web site in the text of my RSS feeds… and perhaps leave it at that. It’s sort of like free advertising. I suppose the thing that -really- bothers me is that my content is out there making someone money, and people couldn’t even possibly get back to my site even if they wanted to.
Thoughts?
