A website use my website

Hello guys,

I was searching on Google about my website, and I found another website use my website contents, like the second website point its domain to my domain, exemple:

www.myweb.com/folder/anypage.php

other website has the same

www.otherwebsite.com/folder/anypage.php

How can I do to block it to use my contents ? to block it to point the domain to my domain ?

Thanks in advance

If they’ve copied the wording word for word and put it onto their own pages, there’s nothing you can do except complain to their hosting provider (if you can ever find them).

The provider is under no legal obligation (to my knowledge) to have the site closed or reworded. That said, i’m not a lawyer. Most providers will say that the content does not violate any laws, and so they are not required to do anything. (Remember, you’re asking them to give up a paying customer, so they’re not likely to go along willingly)

Hello, I still believe that someone has a solution, no ?

That htaccess command wouldn’t help, because they aren’t showing your website as an object on their website, they’re scanning it with PHP.

What may be a good idea is make a PHP file which outputs the client IP address. Then run that file on the copy website. This will output an IP address, then block that IP address with .htaccess.

This won’t have much effect if they’ve cached your pages - so a stern email may be all you need.

They copied the content to their website, you can not remove that using .htaccess. They also hotlinked to some of your images, which are now unavailable on their site due to your forbidding it.

That’s correct :tup:

the problem is when I checked their Whois info, I saw the IP of my website, who can this be inpossible ?

thank you so much, but I did and added the following

[COLOR=“Red”]RewriteEngine on

Options +FollowSymlinks

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} website\.com [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} website\.org [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} website\.net
RewriteRule .* - [F][/COLOR]

but you can still access ( ex: www.website.com ), the only thing changed, that some images not display, why ??

by the way, I added the line in my .htaccess file in my website httpdocs

Read this http://www.javascriptkit.com/howto/htaccess14.shtml

It explains how to block domains using your .htaccess file
