Sometimes This Can Happen
First I want to say sorry to the person that I was talking about here, it is not his site, so he have nothing to do with this.
Today I had worst day here at WA. I found out that someone made the same website as mine and it was terrible experiance that I don't want anyone to experience ever. I was working very hard to build something and it was not the reward that I got, at least not for now.I will not give up, and I want to thank you all for that.
A lot of people was really trying to help me out and to support me thru this, I think that I would probably give up after this, so big thanks for all of you.
By the way I still think that my site is copied by other person, but I am very glad that it is not the person that I thought it was, and maybe he is even not part of this community, because his domain is not registrated thru WA (I found that out by your help here).
I will countinue to build my site to beet that bastard! :)
Thank you all again, and sorry if I made some problems to anyone.
Good Luck All!!

Whoever copied your site is a sad soul for sure. I would inform Kyle for sure. Additionally, I would inform Google, Yahoo, Bing, etc. Keep in mind, your pages are probably indexed before his/hers so you will get better Google juice regardless
Lastly, if someone is going to copy your site, they are probably not in it for the long run. His site will be de-indexed sooner rather than later. These folks are lazy and don't tend to stick around too long.
Thanks, but I afraid that is not going to happen because the guy know what he is doing. He is in this waters for long time now, so I don't think that my site can have a chance against his, to be honest.
I worry about this with my sites too but I hardly ever see it happening. Maybe more than we think. We look at other sites just simply for ideas that we put into our own creation. But flat out copying is just being either not thinking clearly or just a plain Lazy ass. I hope with the help of others You can iron it all out...........Scotty B :) → ♫
Thanks Scotty, I really hope that too. I had big beliefs in this place, and now I don't know what to say. I don't want to lose it, I know there is a lot of nice people here that really wanna help.
Well don't be in a bad mood just yet. Investigate all avenues of this situation and get to the bottom of what's going on.
I am sure you will find satisfaction at the end of the road
That is quite concerning! Especially as a new-ish member myself.
I can't imagine all my hard work going down the drain for someone who doesn't want to put that hard work into their own creation! So, I can understand your frustration.
I hope you find some help with this situation.
Thanks for the support, by the way if I am right, and I am pretty sure I am, the one who did this have a lot of knowledge, so I don't know why does he need to do this.
That is horrible! I am so sorry this happened to you. As Laurie advised, you may contact Kyle directly through pm. I hope this issue gets resolved quickly for you.

How infuriating! You can contact Kyle directly about this, by sending him a private message : https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/kyle

Kristina, in trying to be objective, are you sure that you are not over reacting?
We have a top WA member that has had an affiliate marketing website that relates to football items. If we are talking about the same person, his website has been around long, long before you even thought about joining Wealthy Affiliate.
Yes, there are some similarities between the two of your websites. Yet, they are not identical, so it does not look like it was copied. Colors are different. The menus are different. Pictures are in different places. Even your text is different.
Yet, anyone that chooses to talk about the Baltimore Ravens is will be discussing similar stats. After all, you are talking about the same team. Similar colors will be used. Similar Raven logo will be used. People that like football know what kinds of things other people interested in football talk about.
Additionally, anyone that discusses Baltimore Ravens blankets that are sold on Amazon will have almost identical product information. After all, we are talking about the same item.
This is going to be true of any football team.
As another example, we could be discussing Canon Rebel cameras, for instance. I wouldn't have to see what you wrote or your website to know that there will be a lot of similarities between our websites. After all, we are discussing the same product.
I hope this helps you some.
Best wishes.
I completely agree with you!!!
I don't want to tell who he is, and you are right for some things, but whole site of his is based on what my site is too. Its not problem the team, its problem about the product, and how he build the pages. I PM him about my site, so do you think that it is nice of him to take whole of my idea and make the same site, about same things, with the same page concept? I would say that is stilling. And I put money and effort to my site, of course he have better knowladge of me, so should I just throw what I invested now?
Kristina, the other site doesn't even have any affiliate links within that specific post! And you have dozens of more articles than that other website. I don't see how they could be copying you (if they are, they're doing a really poor job).
He is still making the site, but you can easily see where it is going. He didnt put amazon links yet, but he will (get your .... on amazon today) you think that he will not put the link? He made the categories he just need more time for the content.
I am not 100% sure, but it looks like you may have both even used Woo Commerce to create the posts. It seems like that is a Woo Commerce plugin layout. That could be adding to your confusion.
If you really like your niche, continue focusing on writing great content in your own words.
You being you, will probably choose to eventually promote your website to different audiences. Keep in mind who your audience is.
There is probably not going to be any super popular product that does not multiple people trying to promote the same items.
That is why we follow the training about knowing who your audience is, writing for that audience, and looking for low hanging keywords.
You choose a slightly different title and keyword than he did. So, you might end up ranking for that while he might rank for his. Try not to worry too much about what similar sites are doing. You could go crazy that way in the beginning.
Stay focused on your goals and dreams. Football is a popular niche and this is a great time of year to be building up content for that niche.
I found the site. It's copyright dated 2019, domain name registered 2019-01-31 has amazon affiliate links on 2 posts, does not have privacy policy or legal disclaimers, no about me page.
