The title is the same but the content is different.

Will it harm my site? Hi, I just checked in Ahrefs, 16 to 20 different Blogspot sites have used images of my article and give do-follow links to them. The title of each article from which I have got the image backlink is the same but the content is different. What should I do? Are those links considered spammy links?   SCENARIO: there is no contact information on the Blogspot site. I think these sites are run by the same person. As the theme is the same. Even the logo is the same. Just names are different. He has also taken images from my competitors` articles.

  • Michael Martinez: They might be spammy links but if so they aren`t YOUR spammy links.

    If you`re really worried, then just disavow them. Don`t waste time and energy trying to track down blog owners who don`t want to be found.

  • Richard Hearne: Do nothing. Apply your time to more valuable tasks.

  • Zachary Toto: As mentioned, there`s nothing you need to do. You could implement hotlink protection to prevent them from using your images, but that only prevents them from linking, not scraping.

  • Amru Shaban: I get 60-100 of these every single week and I`ve been getting them for months on end now. My website is no behemoth so these should have burried it to the ground.

    But nothing happened. And nothing (bad) happens.

    So don`t worry about it.

  • Faraz Ahmed: Amru Shaban "behemoth"?What does that mean?

  • Amru Shaban: Some of y’all are lazy to Google a word.

    I meant that my website is not huge and, even though small, was not affected by the spam.

  • Faraz Ahmed: Amru Shaban Oh! man is that an English word I thought you misspelled it
