Trackback Spam

It annoys me to have sites lift my posts, link mine or not, send trackback spam, and credit someone else. They don’t even get the site name correct. Don’t even try most likely. Especially since the sites in question are ad farms. Least they are in Safari. Never see the ads in Camino.

I have adjusted Spam Karma’s settings up a few notches. Might moderate legit stuff so I’ll have to monitor it closely.

Any way to stop sites from lifting one’s posts? myLot isn’t the only ad-filled site that lifts posts. They flat out framed the site. Guessing they or someone on the site subscribed to the RSS feed. Last I checked it was five someones. I don’t mind people adding it to their RSS readers just don’t like all the ads without the revenue. If I wanted ads, I’d have put them on the site.

And the sites that are lifting posts and creating trackback spam are badly designed ad farms and have no real content. It’s as if they had some spider crawling the web for a related word then lifting the post that contained the word. Irritating.

oh yea and I was wondering if I am the only one who is really p*** of by these **** ripping my RSS Feed and pulling them on their site. Haven’t found out what to do against it… *sigh*

When you find out tell me. I left a very pointed comment at that one site. But doubt it will show as it was moderated. They may or may not get the hint. Irregardless, they aren’t getting any free linkage from me.
