Dutch company has hi-jacked my web site!

How do I get them to stop?

They have mirrored my page, placed a redirect on their server, and have replaced my page in the Yahoo serps. It is still my page, but it has their title and a search bar in a frame above my content. I would simply break the frame, but it will not help my Yahoo listing.

I have tried contacting Yahoo and the Dutch company, but I get no response.

Help!, it is killing my ranking.

I just had this happen to one of my sites too. Easy way to get rid of competitors.

I tried fixing it, but Yahoo is still showing the cache from the other site, and it's been 10 days.

Definitely something that needs to be looked at by Yahoo.

I've got a dozen of them doing this to me. In the old Ink they would usually dissappear about every three months. It really begin to grow when Yahoo purchased Ink. Normally the companies doing it will ignore you. Many can override your results based upon the size of their site IMO. Personally, no I don't think it will get corrected anytime soon.

Yahoo reps here have been asked repeatedly about this and related problems. I have seen no indication that they have a handle on this problem. I agree, 2_much, it does appear that as a result, redirects can be used for evil instead of for good.

I will check for info about this and will try to get some answers for you.

[simon03]

can I block them with htaccess?

It is hard to understand your exact problem as it is not described well, but have you tried blocking their IP address from your web server?

A week ago, my site disappeared from Yahoo serps. I just discovered a mirror copy of my site listed under a different, scripted url. I imagine the duplication is part of the reason why I was penalized.

I just found 4 other url's indexed in Yahoo that mirror my index page. How do you stop these from getting indexed in yahoo? I hope my email to yahoo will help get these mirror url's removed so my rankings can recover. Finger's crossed.

Could any one stick mail to me with example, like:
search term, stolen copy results and original content site.

Regarding Hijacked sites:

It turns out that the site was not hijacked or copied in any way. Some other sites were delivering the pages in question inside a separate frame. It in no way affects the ranking or evaluation of the framed pages.
