Switching to Partial Feeds

I am switching to partial feeds for time being as I am experiencing content theft from a splog which is republishing all the post that is being posted here. This splog about which I am talking about is ripping content via my feeds and since I was using full feeds the whole post gets published there within no time.

I am also experiencing bandwidth theft (which is precious) from my site as the images are also hot linked to my site by this splog. Till I am done dealing with this splog I will be using partial feeds as it stops content theft to certain extent. I hope you all you would cooperate with me for time being. :)

  1. You can protect bandwidth with hotlink protection which cpanel provide. I was also facing bandwidth theft in one of my site, someone was using images from site in his myspace profile. I enabled hotlink protection to protect bandwidth theft

  2. Ashok I have already enable hotlink protection but for some reason it doesnot work properly.

  3. Hate those splogs, good content, hard work being ripped off…

    Good luck Shiva.

  4. I hate those freaking splogs. Is there any other way to protect against them?

  5. Thanks Techz :)
    Hey Carol,

    I am still figuring out various ways in which these splogs can be dealt with. :(

  6. One way to start with is reporting splogs when you see them. I already did with few that backlinked to my ctrinity blog.
    I used splogreporter.com .They have also a Firefox extension but not compatible with 2.0.
    You can use the bookmarklets though.

    As for how to make them take your link off their site, i wouldn’t know.
