Preventing Blog Scrapers
2008-01-21 19:44:00 I read Problogger's blog every once in a while as I often find good tips in there. Today I noticed just such a post. The post is about Blog Scrapers and it is something that I have often wondered about. Scrapers are people or bots that take your RSS feed and use it as their own blog or content. Often with no link or mention of you. They do so purely for the advertising revenue. They hurt us by doing two things. 1) they dilute your web site ranking by causing search engines to think your content is duplicate content. 2) they are making money off your work. [More]

Lets Pay Scrapers More - Making Money Online Blogs Just Moved to You Tube
2007-12-11 07:17:00 We all know that people copy videos, and then upload them to You Tube. Why? So they can put a link to their site for some of the traffic. While they(Google) have tried to keep this down to a minimum, it still occurs on a massive level. The last Mr T commercial for example has 400 of them. When a popular video is released, people download them, and then upload them to You Tube to get some hits. While this is great in making some video advertising viral. It does mean it gets abuse with people ripping off other peoples work. Now the people who upload someone else's content will get paid even more.Anyways guess what You Tube just announced a partner program that will let You Tube users get paid for people watching their videos. They haven't yet released how this was going to happen yet though the TechCrunch article seems to mention adsense ads from the You Tube site. I think they will start making the embedded videos more like the video adsense ads or the Metacafe videos th...
