Report Duplicate Content to Google
Once you’ve been able to figure out all of your copied content, it is high time you visited the Google DMCA page and choose the “Submit a legal request” option.
Now, select all of the other options based on your own case
On the following page select the below options:
- Reason: I have discovered content that may infringe my content copyright.
- Google Products: BlogSpot/Blogger
- Copyright: Yes, I am the rightful owner or I’m authorized to stand in favor of the owner of a full right that is apparently infringed.
- Work in question: As the case may be.
Once you’ve done all of these, you’ll receive a link which will redirect you to a page where you are going to report those pages on the Blogger/BlogSpot blog that is duplicating your blog content.
Note that you’ll have to choose “Web Search” as the maiden option if the blog copying your content is not Blogger/BlogSpot.
The links for the different forms are as shown below:
- Use this form for Blogger blogs copying your content.
- Use this form for other blogging platforms copying your content.
- Use this form for WordPress.com blogs copying your content.
- Use this link for LinkedIn.
Simply fill out the form and report those links. You can report several links using a single form.

Hi Israel, thanks a lot for this training. I just try to get my head around this. I just found out that my title and feature image is stolen by an 'adult site'. I didn't steal my content, the site not even had content just images.
I realy want the image they stole removed from there site though as I don't want to be linked in any way and not in any way to this site as there 'adult images' they use are hihgly improperty.
Can I use the form to report this in this case or should I do something else as only the feature image got stolen?(I made the image on my own phone)
Thanks for your advice.

But this is for me not accurate and not practical unless you find someone duplicated the whole topic. Because there are millions of posts out there, you might report someone and harm them, even though they didn't really copy your content!
I agree with you that we need to preserve our effort but still, when you have the same niche as many others, it is inevitable to write about the same topic or part of it sooner or later. Therefore, it is not the best choice to report anyone, you think they have stolen your content. if they copied the whole thing then it is a different story.
It is just my opinion, but if someone stole the whole thing you can report them, but finding the same sentences or topics is normal for websites with the same niche. So I am not really happy to spread such training without more details about what to report and what not to report, to avoid confusion and harming innocent bloggers. Some people might use this training to remove the competition from their way.
Accept my opinion.
