WebProNews for example

Once a week I get the free **** newsletter.

Every week it seems to have articles on the matching the most popular threads on WebmasterWorld.

How many other websites or ebooks just rewrite WebmasterWorld posts?

All of them - WW is the Alpha and the Omega.

I kinda get ticked about that. Got the "new sites being delayed" or whatever email today from them which is a copy of "new sites being sandboxed" from here. It's not the first time. They really need original material.

[edit_g]

Not to mention a certain site which scrapes content from a prominent member - which ##### me off something chronic.

<edited>no need for more publicity really...

Related Question: If someone who started a thread with a nice long informative post, then rewrote the post as a nice newsletter article (and included a few corrections/additions to the data (not other people's origional ideas) and sent it out, would it annoy you even though the info is in two places, as it was their info in the first place?

I get that too, but he's in my SPAM list now.

From a senior member on here too. You'd think they'd know better...

You think they'll copy this thread?
They could start out with "Copycat Sites Rewriting Content From Authority Webmaster Sites" as a title.
