Infographic stolen Whats my best course of action?
-
We designed this infographic http://www.brilliance.com/diamond-buying-tips-infograph a year ago and now i see this http://visual.ly/us-2013-diamond-jewelry-trend chop up cut and paste job around. It is clear it is stolen visullay shows its published by inboudvisibility and designed by webds a seo company.
My question to all my fellow mozzers is what can i do about this? Any one have similar issues?
-
oops was typing as other people replied!!
No problem. When a tribe of people reply with similar advice it is all good.
-
I see that a comment was left on the knockoff graphic at http://visual.ly/us-2013-diamond-jewelry-trend. I agree with @Antony Wilson that you could offer the original version in return for a link back!

"Coupon Huntnig" instead of "Coupon Hunting" for no. 7. on the plagiarized version.
-
Great idea i will try that- It just upsets me that this type of stuff goes on and their is no real accountability to the people who did it.
-
yer why not or could you offer your original version in return for a link back?
-
What about the fact its all over the web as-well? Do i contact all the sites with that same idea

Surely reporting it to viaual.ly will get the infographic pulled from their site as im sure their T&C will state that the uploader should own the copyright ?

File a DMCA takedown notice might be the best way if you've already reached out to them and gotten nowhere. Tell them this is your next course of action if they don't remove your material that should get them listening.

You should definitely contact to the visual.ly team via http://visual.ly/contact form and report the "terms of use violation". I believe they will respond quickly.

The best Certification for Marketers
I have been working on Digital Marketing for long time ago,
Industry News | | Roman-Delcarmen
most of the knowledge that I have I learned by myself, researching, testing, asking, participating in communities like this one. But is time to go up to next level. Im not a Guru but definitely I'm not a newbie and I have been looking for the best, course and certfications on this fields Some ones are mandatory Google Analytics > Data Analytics Facebook Blue Print > Data Analytics Google Adwords > PPC But I'm looking for an Independent Organization who can validate my knowledge, time ago I read on Envato
"6 Professional Certifications for Freelancers", The American Marketing Association (AMA)
is that type of independent source. The OMPC look the same as AMA and then a lot of question comes to my mind https://omcp.org/ https://www.ama.org/ And I want to hear opinions of others marketers about it? Are they relevant?
Which has better recognition?
The people (who can hire me) will see useful those Certifications? As I see I have to invest money, time and a lot of effor so I wonder to know
which one is the best option.1 -
I have a new domain, how should i best use it?
Hi all, Recently signed upto Moz and loving what i am seeing at the moment.I do alot of microsites and push both adwords and affiliate programmes and products and earn enough to give me some fun money. For a long time i have wanted to get into the mobile phone market as i have spoken to alot of people who get anything upto £100 a time from affiliate programmes. I have just purchased a new domain after doing some digging around and though that before i dive into doing things how i normally would , i thought id ask advice on how to best utilise the domain i have bought. Ive just purchased newiphone.co.uk and will put up a holding page once all of the registration has gone through and i have access to everything. According to Google keyword planner the term 'new iphone' gets around 368k searches a month. Moz says this is an extremely difficult keyword to rank for with a 80% difficulty rating so i appreciate i wont be at number 1 in a couple of weeks. Id appreciate your ideas and suggestions as a community to see how i go forward. Many tanks in advancePaul

What is the best Press Release website?
What is the best press release website for getting a press release in front of writers and news sources? We have used a couple with OK success, but I would like to hear and learn from the experiences of others. Thanks *I am not concerned with the page rank of the press release site or any SEO benefit coming from the PR website itself.

Best way to recruit quality SEO staff?
We are in a nice position in that we are growing everyday. As the result, we need more staff, but do not have the time to bring along someone without any real SEO background. I have used just about every source over the years to hire people with good and bad result.

For an SEO, with experience in some or all of the process: Link building, Keyword Analysis Site evaluation, eCommerce, Analytics... where do you go to find someone good? What about to find them yesterday? 😉 Obviously, they do not have to be expert at all, but they need to be familiar with all and have experience in at least two or three.1 -

What is the Best Way To Structure A Growing Internet Marketing Firm?
I have been asking a lot of personal friends (who own SEO companies) this question and have found that it seems to be on all of their minds. From BlueGlass to a small start up consulting firm, it seems that everyone is doing things different and constantly shaking it up. I am wondering what SEOMozers are doing/have done for their company structure?
