The best way to find if someone has copied your content is by doing a Google search or using tools such as Copyscape , which allows you to find content that is even partially identical to yours.
Once found, you can contact the site to request their removal . I already anticipate that in 99.9% of cases, however, you will not get an answer, I tell you from experience
The second possibility is to request the removal of the content directly from the hosting provider of the site in question . To find out which one it is, just go to ICANN Lookup and enter the site that cloned your content to find out which server the site is supported on.
Simply contact support and provide all the details:
- the URL of your site
- the URL of your content that was copied
- the URL of the clone content.
In this way you will be able to request the removal of those contents
As a last resort, therefore, you should put yourself in the hands of a lawyer or go directly to Google’s doors and ask for the content to be removed from the search results.
Hacking attack
There are two types of websites: those that have already been hacked Indonesia Phone Number List and those that have yet to be.
(Stefano Novelli)
Another technique that is used to conduct a negative SEO attack is classic hacking, such as a DDoS attack . In this case, hackers penetrate your site and from here they can really do a myriad of damages, such as:
- edit your robots.txt file and de-index your website completely
- redirect from your pages to another website
- edit or delete your content
- add spam pages
- … and other unclassifiable damage.
Of all the possible attacks, this is undoubtedly the worst. And as you can well imagine, not just for a matter of SEO
How to defend yourself from hacker attacks
There are several ways to defend against hackers:
- The first is to use a high-performance hosting , such as SiteGround , and install a site security plugin on WordPress , such as WPScan , WordFence or SG Security
- Always use strong passwords (and change them regularly!) and avoid using common usernames such as “admin”
- Enable two-factor authentication, which prompts you for further verification Numbers Lists after logging in. This prevents someone from being able to penetrate your site even if he has access data (username and password)
- Also always keep all WordPress themes and plugins updated because unlike common beliefs, it is through outdated plugins that most of the attacks manage to go through
- Make regular backups of your site . If you use SiteGround , they will be done automatically by the server
- If you have suffered an attack, contact your hosting provider immediately and have the logs sent to you to understand where they came from. Then contact an ethical hacker to close the breach and secure the site.
