Removing copyrighted content via Google DMCA dashboard - my experience. earn by blogging adsense income

I manage a few different tech-related websites, and one of them has a recurring issue with spammy websites copying its text and posting it as its own. I usually find these things through copyscape, and most of my requests through the Google dmca Dashboard are successful. In other words, the spammy site owners tend to act pretty quickly once Google threatens to remove their pages from the index.

But here's a new trend... the webmasters for the crappy websites are replying to Google and saying that it is their content, or that they do not have any infringing content and therefore the claim is unmerited.

So what does Google do in that situation? They email you and tell you that you need a subpoena in order to get the content removed.

In other words, as long as the webmaster for the spammy site replies to Google that they have put in a good faith effort to identify any infringing content, and they no longer are in violation, then Google drops the case. They don't actually bother to follow up and see whether they really have removed the content.

The most recent time this happened, it was a very blatant copyright issue that continues to exist. Of course, I have sent Google all of the necessary information including screenshots of our two different sites next to each other to demonstrate the copyright infringement.

The moral of the story is, if you own a crappy website that plagiarizes content, then all you need to do is reply to any Google removal request and say that it is unmerited. And if the original copyright owner does not hire a lawyer, then Google will basically do nothing for them. And your crappy site will remain indexed. It will probably never rank anywhere near the original site, but it will still be there.
