Fair Use

A problem with the Google search results ranking is that for some reason content scraped pages can often rank higher than the original blog post. This can be pretty discouraging for a blogger trying to write useful articles. I have been having this problem as well, with scraping sites taking my original writing for their own and then outranking my post. This is discouraging to say the least.
