Last week, I talked about how duplicate content was a big issue at the SES Chicago conference.
Robert Scoble is up in arms about how some of this is handled. How is this splogger monetizing his traffic? Adsense does not appear present which can be a root cause.
I disagree with Robert that filtering and retooling web search for every new type of splog is the way to go. I do think that finding and cutting off monetization methods is the best long-term solutions. This, of course, will not be easy.
UPDATE: Someone pointed out that this splog is a linking authority splog, interesting concept.
I’ve not had anyone rank higher than me for my own content, but I have seen hundreds of blog posts with my work pulled surrounded by Adsense. Very annoying.
