Should I be mad about this? - GoFuckYourself.com

xxxjay · 09-16-2004, 10:32 PM

Call me parinoid, but does with site www.sex-hot-sites.com look VERY similar to www.jays-xxx-links.com? I looked at the source and it didn't seem stolen, but it damn near a mirror of my site.

Should I be mad about this?

AaronM · 09-16-2004, 10:33 PM

The answer is yes.

Now I will go read your question.

fris · 09-16-2004, 10:36 PM

damn jay i would be pissed, he/she must have either flashgetting your website and just replaced the linking codes.

Varius · 09-16-2004, 10:40 PM

Maybe I"m not getting it, but what exactly looks the same? Seems like different design, different colors, different layout.....

FreeHugeMovies · 09-16-2004, 10:41 PM

This is why it's not good to post about how much paper you are making. Ppl are going to copy any good business model. If they have not taken your source code, I don't see any problems with it.

fris · 09-16-2004, 10:41 PM

the pay site links "his first huge cock" then the content all leeched

Sly · 09-16-2004, 10:41 PM

No.

Jay do some more searching, a lot of sites have been doing similar things lately. They know you're successful, so they try to bank off of your ideas.

I agree.

Post stats, you're going to get copiers.

pornguy · 09-16-2004, 10:43 PM

I thought the same.

But hey It's up to you

If the code looks like something else, then I would forget about it.
Is it worth the time and trouble to chase the guy around?

stocktrader23 · 09-16-2004, 10:43 PM

Sorry man, but if I was going to do some sort of directory it would probably look similar as well. I wouldn't even have thought of your site if I had seen this.

Even if you don't post stats, you'll get copiers. Hence, the introduction of the GooglePriorityID. Everyone feel free to use it!

Care to explain how you could lay out a directory in another format? I imagine I could find some mainstream sites much older than both of these that are similar as well.

Well I had a perfectly good reason for posting my stats. I wanted people to realize that I was a successful independant webmaster and now I have an affiliate program, which should enjoy the same level of success, based on my previous success.

I'm not super pissed about it, but if you look at the page titles, the link structure, and just about every other aspect of this site - it is just my site with the colors switched and some different text.

They could at least try to be a little original.

That guys site looks very different than your site. Copying link structure and generic porn page titles is not illegal. I wouldnt worry about it.

SmokeyTheBear · 09-16-2004, 11:32 PM

I always think its foolish when someone tells a successfull webmaster what to change on his/her site ... but....

could you clean up that main graphic of yours ??? and make the background match

{fusion} · 09-17-2004, 12:44 AM

seeing review site after review site now, all cloned off each other its sad.

Pornopat · 09-17-2004, 12:49 AM

If you think it looks to much like your own site put a lawyer on it.
Dont get angry though. Thats just negative energy.

digifan · 09-17-2004, 12:57 AM

I think the two sites are different...

eiht_98 · 09-17-2004, 01:00 AM

there are probably another 1000 sites like yours

xxxjay · 09-17-2004, 01:33 AM

It's not the way it looks, sure the graphic and colors are different. My site is very deep and this site is identica...concidence? I doubt it.l Then if you look page titles, the way it is sectioned off, the way the galleries are made, and all of the interlinking - it's an exact copy.

I guess when somebody came up with a TGP they thought it was a pretty novel idea. I don't even have a name for the monster I've created. I guess I will call it the SUPER EVIL LINKLIST ON STEROIDS.

Not true at all.

sean416 · 09-17-2004, 01:36 AM

part of SEO is looking at the SERP's and doing what the #1 is doing. It's perfectly normal that you feel a bit raped when someone takes your idea and uses it without you knowing, but in all reality this is common practice and I could show you 100 sites that look more like yours.

Just me but it's different enough not to get mad over.

How did you find it?

The owner asked to trade links with me.

Matt 26z · 09-17-2004, 03:14 AM

They may or may not have been influenced by your site when positioning parts of their text.

That's about the extent of this.

ivil_klown · 09-17-2004, 04:36 AM

They're totally different, what's there to be angry about?

Reak · 09-17-2004, 04:43 AM

So i cant buy reak-sex-sites.com because you have jay-xxx-links.com

Tuna · 09-17-2004, 05:55 AM

There are other sites doing the same thing. maybe he copied them and not you
