What Should You Do If Your Article Was Stolen?
Lots of us have had or will have one day or another some of our content stolen, and that really suck when it happens.
Recently there was a WA Forum thread about yet another internet marketer who has seen is content taken advantage of. If you want to read the thread here it is: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/wa_forum/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=89018
I have had some of my content stolen before and I know it's not fun and one feels very frustrated as it seems that those mega sites where our article was stolen from don't even care.
However, DO ALWAYS take action, regardless of the results you may get from them. In many cases they will take action and remove the stolen content from their sites in the case of directories or from ranking in case of Google or other search engines.
I wanted to thank Jatdebeaune AKA Joan who provided the address to contact Google and I took the liberty to use this on my blog post that you can read here:

One thing is sure, if we don't take action when we have an article stolen, it will only encourage thieves to do it even more.
