AntiLeech – Protect your blog from sploggers
I have faced a good deal of problem with sploggers.
While I had one who just stole every post of mine, another kept picking up all my posts because it had the content “copyright”!
And that is because my feeds include a copyright notice.
Owen has released a new plugin title AntiLeech which helps fight sploggers.
AntiLeech does not prevent the splogger bots from accessing your site. It produces a fake set of content especially for them that includes links back to your site (and mine, too, ok?) and sends it only to them. When they steal this content, it appears online just like normal, except now you’ve turned the tables on them and have provided them with useless content.

Brilliant post!
Have you heard about Numly.com? They allow you to register your works online and return a verifiable Numly Number for proof of copyright submission. To my knowledge, sploggers do not strip their Numly Numbers from their posts. This provides proof of where they picked up the original copyrighted post.
Hi Chris,
Had come across Numly a long time back and thought it to be a great idea.
However, I didn’t want to invest at that time. Maybe in the future
