Blog linking in combo with low quality blogs
-
I was wondering if anyone can help me with a question that just came to my mind when I received my first spam.
It was a comment with nothing but tags for one of the poems I put on my blog. When I checked where it came from I was redirected to another blog on which the owner simply posted the link to my post in addition with lots of tags, but no additional comments.Now the question is: Can I do anything against people using my articles, linking to them in their very own blogs on WP, just to receive traffic? And does anyone know by any chance, if I can do anything against blogs like that on other blogging sites or even against people who own that domain?
Don’t get me wrong I don’t mind people referring to my posts at all, but I do mind if in their posts is nothing but the link so it looks pretty much like they cannot come up with something to say and instead use other people’s work to receive hits.
Thanks a lot in advance :)
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

It sounds like you’ve discovered pingback. And no, other than sending them a DMCA take-down notice, there’s not much you can do. Oh well, be happy, and take contort in knowing that this make help your SEO. :)

Oh thanks, I didn’t think of the pingback thingie. But what is a DMCA take-down notice? And what does SEO mean? Sorry I ain’t familiar with the abbreviations.
