Someone has posted an old blog entry of mine on their blog. They've labeled it a "guest blog" but given no attribution. The other tags they've assigned it are arts, handicrafts, health insurance, miranda de ebro, and salvos.

Its a trick to get around spam filters. The idea is to make their sites seem like a legitimate site to the automatic spam filtering algorithms (because if they come up with a way to tag that site, they will also tag legitimate sites like yours)
ReplyDeleteYep. It's a fake blog. Report it to abuse@wordpress.com and they'll take it down.
ReplyDeleteThanks for explanations!
ReplyDeleteHow do you find these things? If someone quoted my blog, I doubt I'd notice, unless they just happened to hit one of the key-words I google, or it gets picked up by Technorati.
