The title seems not interesting but here I am going to explain. I posted a unique article in articlesbase and I started getting backlinks from nowhere, 3, 4, 10, 20 per day from different websites. Thus, I noticed that my article has been reposted and syndicated by different autobblogs. I am getting a lot of backlinks from this autoblogs. Its a big help to boost my site's SERP....

Autoblogs and syndicators can be a net win for traffic and backlinks when they preserve your link and byline, but they can also strip links, reword your copy, or (worse) outrank your original. Several replies here already call that tradeoff out (for example and saw the upside, while and warned about rewrites and removed links). Protecting authorship is a mix of monitoring, simple technical controls, and—when needed—legal steps. (developers.google.com)

Practical monitoring (fast wins): 1) set a Google Alert for a short, unique sentence or your article title so you’re emailed when copies appear; 2) run a periodic Copyscape / Copysentry scan to find reposts and get alerts; 3) use Google search operators (site:, intitle:, intext:) or an exact-title search to locate copies quickly. Example query:
"Exact article title" intext:"a unique sentence from the article" -site:yourdomain.com . (google.com)

Technical options to request from syndicators: ask them to 1) include a byline + a working (do-follow) link to the original; 2) add a cross-domain rel="canonical" pointing to your original when the content is identical; or 3) better yet for syndicated articles, have the partner block indexing of their copy with a robots meta tag (<meta name="googlebot" content="noindex">) — Google now recommends blocking syndicated copies rather than relying on cross-domain canonicals in many syndication cases. Use the URL Inspection tool in Search Console to see which version Google has selected as canonical. Example canonical tag:

<link rel="canonical" href="https://yourdomain.com/your-original-article/" />

For noindex on syndicated copies:

<meta name="googlebot" content="noindex">

(developers.google.com)

If a site refuses to credit you or removes your links, document everything (CMS timestamps, screenshots, a Wayback snapshot) and contact the site owner/host asking for correction. If that fails, locate the host’s DMCA designated agent (U.S. sites show their agent in the Copyright Office directory) and submit a DMCA notice; you can also use Google’s legal removal/DMCA forms to request de‑indexing of infringing search results. Keep records of your outreach and the copy provenance before filing. (archivesupport.zendesk.com)

Quick checklist: monitor (Alerts + Copyscape), search (site:/intitle:/intext:), ask partners for canonical/byline/noindex, document timestamps, and escalate to host/DMCA/Google only when polite remediation fails.

This type of republishing is fine but if some one is rewriting your article and then publishing it with you link removed make me really angry...

I have experienced this. One ezinearticle of mine was edited, meaning only some words were replaced and posted as his own.

But there are worse. There are those who just copy and paste the entire article without any reference to you as the original source. Tsk! Tsk!

I totally agree with you on it. There are many people out there who don't understand what importance the unique content is.

If the article is reposted and syndicated by different autobblogs with same links you have posted, then its worthy as it gives lot of traffic to your site. These sites are interlinked to each other and they really help in improving SERP.

Yes you are right. Its not easy for some one when your unique content is being theft and you cannot do any thing to stop it.

Dude, are you crazy? These people are profiting over your hard work. Wouldn't you rather get the money that they're making? Damn thieves. I just submitted an article to ComLuv.com titled "Why Auto-Bloggers Must Die" and I can't wait for it to be approved. I mean, yes, they gave me credit for my site's link but when it went through their article spinner, it changed my domain name from "The Glaring Facts" to "The Blatant Facts"

9 of 10 autoblogs does not rewrite contents.

I often write quality articles - and I often get them re-published all over the Internet. Do I worry about that? No at all. I'm quite flattered honestly.

Member Avatar for jack jastin

Okay Mr silver, I really impressed your thinking of let republishing your article by auto bloggers and I will try also for my own site aswell but one confusion is there, I think this method will work out until unless some one is not going to play any thing with my own links. isn't it!
