  • Problems with Add-On domains on CPanel

    PS: This is a post which is a direct outcome of a discussion on IndiBlogger forum.

    The question was whether Google and other Search Engines treat Add-On domains differently? The direct answer is no, but it does affect your SEO efforts. The culprit here being CPanel, the trusted and proven Web Hosting Manager used by most of the Hosting Service Providers.

    I could not find a single post telling me everything I need, and I had to read through many forum threads to understand the issue. Hence I thought of putting it all together in a post, hoping to help fellow readers.

  • How can you make copying from your blog difficult?

    Well, this was one of the questions posted on the IndiBlogger forum, and something that I paid keen interested to. IndiBlogger forum was slowly moving away from the Sourav Pandey plagiarism case when this thread appeared.

    It is a well-known fact that many a times, you find your content has been ripped off by plagiarist and claimed to be theirs. I faced that with my Tata Nano April Fool scoop a couple of years ago. I hunted down the sites using Google Search and Google Image Search, sent out emails / comments to Admins of the site to get my due credit. Some obliged, some did not.

    Among the ones who did not were what we now call them Feed Aggregators. These websites chew your feed and put them on their site. The loss is the Ad revenues they get from showing off adverts and Google punishment on us for copying content.

  • Stop Plagiarism in every form

    This poem is dedicated to everyone of the IndiBloggers and those whose blog posts / art works have been copied because of someone who was exposed recently on Indiblogger Blog.

    Let the emotions flow,
    After hitting the heafty blow,
    A theif who ruts out anger,
    And now aware of the Danger,
    Everyone is up in arms,
    For he has lost his charm,
    Go in deep and read the shit,
    Let us kick his goddamn bullshit!!

    All form of Plagiarism is a crime. I have been personally subjected to it and have tried my best to protect my interests. It is, the same for every blogger/artist in any form of life. IndiBlogger has taken a step to expose one such blogger and all that we expected was an apology to all of his fans and readers and return of the prize money.

    After threatening for a legal action and cooking up ‘fictional’ stories of an unknown, deleted blog not searchable via Google on the IndiBlogger Blog, sculpting on his Facebook page blog and group page about fictional allegations best described only by him and a lot of flaming and usage of foul language from his fake ids on the IndiBlogger forum. I think its time that we stand united against Plagiarism of every kind, and by ANYONE.
