Chris, Google doesn’t give you exact number of backlinks now. Try Yahoo Explorer instead — in Yahoo search, type “linkdomain:starmometer.com”.

For duplicate content, you can always file a DMCA complaint on the scraper’s web host.

Thanks kuya. Isang question na lang po. Last year my google backlinks are more than 100. Pero ngayon po bakit naging 20 na lang? Napenalize po kaya ako ng google for duplicated contents dahil meron nga pong website na kumokopya ng posts ko? Ok lang naman sana yun kasi nilalagay naman niya yung link kung san nakuha yung contents kaya lang i’m worried na baka napepenalize na pala ako dahil dun.

@ Chris

No, it’s not part of the exploit. That one is a scraper site. It gets your content from your RSS feed and auto-publishes it on its site.

One of the softwares that can do that is a WP plugin called FeedWordpress.

I noticed there is a website (16q.com) that automatically copies my post to their site. The second i publish my post, naka-post na rin siya sa website niya. Is this the result of the said exploit? Di ba kapag duplicated ang content nape-penalize ng Google? I am really worried about this.
