Called the Google Scraper Report, it was announced by the head of Google’s web spam team Matt Cutts on Twitter.

The Google Scraper Report form doesn’t promise any immediate fix — or any fix at all. Rather, it simply asks people to share their original content URL, the URL of the content taken from them and the search results that triggered the outranking.

I saw the same post and thought of posting it here. You beat me to it. Looks like a useful tool. I haven't had to worry about scrapers outranking me for awhile, but it's not that uncommon when your site is new. Hopefully this will prove to be another way to get rid of the scraper sites.

There's not as many of them as there used to be. At least I'm not noticing them. There was a time when "autoblogging" was all the rage with the noob adsense crowd.

That is a very good thing, but I was wondering how to prove that they have copied your content and not you? They may claim that you have copied their content, does Google has something to detect this or do we need to have registration like copyright to prove that the content originally belongs to you.

The above link will usually be good enough to show proof that you were the first to create the contents.
