How can i contact the owner of this site over copyright theft
-
Hi i am getting a bit fed up of people stealling our content and now i have come across this site that has stolen content from us but cannot find any email address or contact details and would like to know how to contact them or how to stop this site from stealling our work.
here is the site
any help would be great

good news, the content has been removed. i contacted the website they did not reply and contacted the person the website was working for and told them we would take legal action as we have done this before. they replied and have instructed the website to take down the content.
now a question. shall i still contact the hosting company and tell them what has been going on so the site is closed as it seems they are dong this to other people.
this company behind the website is working for a hypnotherapist by building links and driving traffic to the site, would love to know who the company is.
through checking i have found yesterday that the same company had taken a large number of content from us but now they have all vanished.
this is very wrong and i am just wondering if the hypnotherapy company knew what was going on or not?
this company seems to have different websites building links pretending it is fresh content.
would be interested to know more about them and what they have been charging to steal our content

I've had this happen to me on numerous occassions. I used www.copyscape.com to find the infringing material.
I first contact Google and Yahoo to have the content removed from search results. Next, a few days later, I send a DMCA complaint letter to the hosting company and the website will be removed, usually within a few hours. Then, the website owner will usually contact you and you can discuss as to how he/she will remove your content from their website.

just looked at that link colin but not sure which one i should tick. it list products but do not say anything about content theft or other site etc, any advice would be great. i have contacted him and will see if he contacts me back. tried the who is, but when i filled it in it would not send kept on saying about the address field not filled in, but i filled it in.

Looks to me like an article farm. Basically, a link directory disguising itself as a blog for purposes of building links. Probably not the sort of site you actually want a link from.
I would contact the guy who runs it to see if he can be reasonable about not stealing your content. If he won't comply, I'd report him to who.is like the other poster recommended, and report him to Google here:

thanks for this. can anyone let me know what this site is about and how articles get on there. it seems to me some sort of marketing site as the article that they have stolen is http://caiii.com/weight-loss-hypnotherapy-has-become-a-vital-tool-for-weight-loss/ and the link in the article as well as the bottom of the article is a link to our competitor.
if anyone has more information about this site then i would love to hear it.

Shows it registered to someone named Tran Khanh
Email: khanh.tbk@gmail.com
Good luck!

look this site up on who.is and there should be a link at the bottom "Is this domain infringing on your copyright?" - could give that a go...

Using different sections from all over your site to compile a blog post, bad idea or ok to do?
I have a large site that sells various products, I have been on a kick creating new content relating to the many aspects of upkeep with these products after purchase, I wanted to create a blog post combining all the info for the group of products, but will be reusing some of the FAQs and even tips, since I'm more or less relocating the info. Since this blog post is using many different sources on our site, using a rel=canonical isn't possible. Is there anything I should watch out for, Will rewording / phrasing here and there be enough or should I steer clear of this as a whole?

Network of small sites or one large site
Hi there, I am taking a group of mums through how to set up a blog and how to build up traffic to that blog. Should I suggest that we all blog on the same domain so www.dsdsds.com/myblogname or get them to set up their own domains. My aim is for everyone to support each other, share and link content so would it be more powerful if they were all on different domains or on the same one? Would love some insight as it is something I just can not get my head around this part. Thank you so very very much 🙂

Will a comment section on my site help with seo
I have never been a fan of comment pages such as the sun http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/showbiz/tv/4783642/bruce-willis-appears-on-the-one-show-in-awkward-interview.html but i was told the other day that not only is it good for the reader but it is also good for seo and increase the number of times that google would visit the page and i would like to know if that is true. if you have added a comment section to your articles i would like to know if you have noticed any change.

How can I resolve a duplicate page issue?
I have (an attached) report that shows duplicate content for a blog page and I'm not sure how to resolve the issue. The blog/website is hosted on wordpress.org, maybe it's something to do with having to add categories or tags - can anyone help please? SDtXT.png

Forum Site: Content Value Post Panda
I run a forum website built on Wordpress. We're about two years old. The theme of the site is a directory of attorneys, with each directory listing having its own blog account on our site. Through this platform, we receive 75-80 blog posts now every month of varying quality from our users. QUESTION: A good number of the blogs published on our site are also published on the attorney's law firm site as well (they're syndicating on our site). Will this hurt our site in light of Panda? A lot of the syndicated content is very well written and insightful. By contrast, Will non-syndicated but average to below average posts hurt our site? The authors almost always link back to their firm site. Would love some feedback on whether we should be happy about the syndicated content or whether we should potentially ban it?
