It was hard for me to believe even with my own eyes mostly because of the initial shock of a national retail chain entering these online industries; apparently they see a huge market with the everyday Joe getting online.

I don’t see many “My content has been stolen!” complaints, but this thread at Cre8asiteforums seems to have a happy ending. LOL
“There are 2 blogs that are scraping ours on a daily basis. One of them has some absurdly long name and the other has the words black hat in the name.” - SEOigloo

When I got into SEO, Google’s PageRank (PR) was the golden topic. Everyone loved talking about every little aspect of it. If you knew a lot about PR, you were considered like an expert SEO, LOL.
Things have changed in the last 5 or 6 years and more and more webmasters are shouting “PR […]

http://webmaster.live.com/ping.aspx?siteMap=http://www.YourDomainName.com/sitemap.xml
source: http://forums.microsoft.com/webmaster/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2827197&SiteID=79

<title>Sitemap Generator - Live Search Webmaster Tools</title>

<body>Thanks for submitting your sitemap.</body>

You’d think that someone with as much SEO savvy as Danny Sullivan of searchengineland.com would know better than to drop a spammy link on a vulnerable site.
He not only dropped the spam link, he wrote the “Get A Free Link From Wired” article explaining how everyone could get a free link from wired.com’s new wiki. […]
