How to protect your articles from illegal copying?

Question

Copyright

I wrote a nice and useful post in my blog. I write unique content on my own, go through all the circles of hell through testing, collecting information, analyzing and publishing what people are interested in reading. Of course there are social sharing buttons. networks that link to my page and allow you to read the article on my site. And then I ran into trouble, a person copied my entire article as a separate post to his public, and at the end of the article he published a link to my article in text.
I'm at a loss, tell me how to behave in such a situation? What can be done? I spent my strength, time and desire, and the person simply took away what does not belong to him.

Answer 1

it's the Internet, baby
1) confirm authorship - register in Yandex Webmasters and Google Webmasters, Google seems to have no confirmation, but - you can feed it a sitemap, and when it is indexed, post it for everyone
2) fight plagiarism: a) complaints hoster/vkontakteer; b) remove a competitor from Google search results - DMCA complaint
3) work with the audience

Answer 2

and at the end of the article text posted a link to my article

In fact, he completed the minimum program, he said that he took the material from a certain source and refers to it.
As a psychological shield, you can post copy terms on your blog, but that won't help much. Take an example from the leading media, they are copied many times more.
You can be happy that you write good content that people are willing to show others by linking to you. This is the key to success!

Answer 3

Yes, nothing special, while you are looking for one, they will already copy 10, and there is also a rewrite, when your text is changed a little and it seems that in fact it is yours, but formally it is no longer yours ...
