  Searching in google today, I found this site: rssing.com who index wordpress sites tag feeds and present them in their blog. Clicking a link to full text keeps you in the site, and present my blog embedded in their websie. e.g. http://kingwoods16.rssing.com/chan-9171528/latest.php
  I want to stop them from indexing my site and embedinig it. How can I do this?
  I already reported google about this site.
  It looks a very phishi site.
  I assume this is relevant to other wordpress.com users and blogs.
  Many thanks,
  Tamar

  Hi there,

  RSS is the means by which your blog’s entries are made available for readers who want to keep up with what you’re doing but don’t have the time or energy to visit every site they want to read every day. Instead they use an RSS aggregator such as Google Reader.

  While I was not previously familiar with it, rssing.com seems to be a site which is attempting to take snapshots of RSS feeds to assist site owners with their RSS needs. They actually provide on their homepage the means by which you can have your site’s information removed from their database if you do not want it included!

  We also have a help article which details the steps that you can take to help prevent content theft on your own site. You may want to review it and take any steps which you think are appropriate!
