Explain Your Case. Be as Succinct as Possible: Today, while trying to submit an article at IMNewswatch.Com, so I searched Google for “how to submit to imnewswatch”. On the search results, I found one of my posts copied, with my affiliate links replaced, and published here by an ABN member named Connor Mcintosh.
Then I Google-searched a phrase inside the article: “distributed in 55 different channels for traffic”. I wanted to know if he also submitted it on other places; lo and behold, the other one was on BetterNetworker, and of course my own original posts.

Explain Your Case. Be as Succinct as Possible: My colleague said it best. “The story is 2246 words in length. The first four paragraphs belong completely to Mr. Farrell. Everything else, right up until the beginning of the final paragraph was essentially scraped word-for-word from the original story.As determined by Copyscape.com, a service which employs special software to search for duplicate content on the web, 1541 words in Mr. Farrell’s piece were a duplicate of Ms. Fissori’s. Then consider that Ms. Fissori’s piece was only 1690 words long. That means he would have copied 91% of her work.”- Charlies Jay (BoxingInsider.com)
