Hi There,

I've been looking at various options to increase traffic to my website, and I've been considering submitting some articles to one of those "Free Article" Database websites.

What I've found, though, is portions of my sales letter of my product being cut and pasted under the names of others, who are likely Clickbank affiliates.

Also, on one of these free article websites, I'm actually seeing links in my article to other products. For example, if my sales letter mentions an American Flag, there will be a hyperlink to a flag company. If the word "invested" is included in the sales letter, there is a hyperlink to a financial services company.

The terms of service for this particular website says that the content has to be original and owned by the poster. Well, I'm seeing 3 or 4 copies of my sales letter at this same website.

Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what did you do about it?

I'm a tad annoyed. I guess because I did so much work in creating my own product, I half expect those who want to try to benefit financially from it to do their homework and to write their own article.

Thanks in advance for any insights that you can provide.
