How to Prevent Site Theft

Preventing Content Theft
1. Check the search engines for stolen text or articles. Copy and paste a section of the original text into the search engine. Put the section of original text in quotes. Review the results of the search for other Web sites with very similar (plagiarized) content, or a copy of the exact text. Another option is to send the text, or the Web page URL, through CopyScape. This will bring up a listing of sites with a significant amount of words being copied.
2. Turn in Web sites guilty of copyright infringement. Contact the hosting company of any sites that have stolen your content. Send a copy of the content removal request to the owner of the site also. If you do not hear back from the hosting company within two weeks, report the site to Google's Spam Report, and other major search engines. If the content thief is using Google AdSense, or other PayPerClick services, for illegal activities (such as stolen content/images), report the site.

3. Disable copy, paste and right-click options. Insert JavaScript into your site to prevent copy, paste and right-clicking without your permission. Wordpress blog users can simply download plug-ins to automatically disable these options.
4. Create a clear policy that states your site does not tolerate content theft. Insert a 'Do Not Copy,' or 'Protected by CopyScape,' banner on every page of your site to scare off potential content thieves. Write a detailed section of text in your Privacy Policy indicating that the Web site is copyrighted, and not open to re-distribution.
Preventing Image Theft
5. Place a visual copyright watermark on your images. Image watermarks can range from a full symbol across the picture, to a small section of text in the corner of the image. Create a copyright watermark in Photoshop, or other image creation tool. Include the copyright holder's name, date of copyright, and the rights management (eg. Creative commons type license). Make the watermark slightly transparent to allow visitors of your site to clearly see the image.
6. Use a low resolution image to protect against image theft. Images that are 550 pixels, should be saved at 72 dpi when used on the Internet. This will prevent the image from being re-sized without creating a grainy effect.
7. Disable copy, paste and right-click options. Insert JavaScript into your site to over-ride browser clicks. Prevent downloads of images by placing pictures as a background to tables using CSS code. While right-click downloads will still be functional with this method, the downloaded image will appear transparent to the image thief.
8. Stop search engines from indexing your protected images. Insert a META tag to prevent search engines from indexing your images, while still allowing them to put the rest of the page in their search listings. JavaScript can be added into the root directory of the site to tell 'bots,' or spyders, to disregard the image directory of your site. All major search engines should honor your request to remove your images from public searches.

How to Find Alternatives to Google

1. Try Dogpile. Dogpile is a prominent search engine on the web that has never really gotten as much publicity as the big guys. Dogpile doesn't come out with new additions and new ideas to making money. It simply relies on good old-fashioned web searching.
2. Check out Zabasearch, if you are looking for a person. Zabasearch is quite honestly the most powerful free people searcher available outside of the white pages. With Zabasearch, you type in the name of the person you want to locate along with a state of residence if you have it, and it usually pops out a large number of accurate addresses.

3. Browse through some of the 100 alternative search engines found on a link in the Resources section. This list has search engines that can be used instead of Google. They may just turn up things in your searches that Google misses.
4. Use AOL, MSN or Yahoo!. These are companies that have been on the Internet for a long time and are trusted sites that are alternatives to Google.

How to Measure AdSense Success

1. Log into your Google AdSense account. After login you will be directed to the main AdSense page where you are likely to see summary information including estimated earnings, recent traffic information and links to additional resources and reports. If your account is new, statistics generation may take a day or two after AdSense code has been added to your site.
2. Find the section titled 'Performance Reports'. This section is where you will find all the information you will need to track and manage your AdSense campaigns.

3. Locate the navigation links on the left side of the page. These links allow you to view your statistical data by day, week, month, and by various other categories as well, such as by specific ad unit, ad size, or custom channels you have already defined in AdSense.
4. View statistics for page views, clicks, and Page CTR (click through rate). These are the primary benchmark statistics you will want to track.
5. Gather statistics for clicks and page views for a period of time. If you are gathering statistics by month, collect several months' worth of data. Using a spreadsheet application, enter the monthly data in a way that allows you to view each month in chronological order.
6. Analyze the trends of your data by viewing from oldest to newest. If possible, create a graph that allows you to chart your numbers visually. This makes viewing trends easier. Healthy statistics will show upward movement, indicating that page views and clicks on paid advertising links are rising.
7. Review the CTR for the collected time periods. The CTR allows you to analyze page views and clicks together. The higher this number is the greater your AdSense success. Follow the trend of this number for the collected period. There may be ups and downs, not every period needs to show increased rates. However, the overall trend should be an upward climb.
8. Consider the analysis of each statistic collectively. If one statistic seems to be improving but another is lagging, determine what might be the cause. For instance, if page views are increasing but your clicks are going down, consider moving the ad to another spot on the web page. Positions at the top of the page will get the best visibility. Once you have considered all the data as a whole you can begin to make an assessment about their overall success, helping you make improvements where necessary to improve monetary effectiveness.
