Send a DMCA to google about them.
Fax them and their hosting a breach of copyright notice and send them
a bill per day for using your words.
Fill in the small claims court papers and send them a copy giving them
48 hours to cease and desist using your content else you'll serve
papers on them.

You can do something with style sheets/divs to stop your text being as
cut and pastey but they'll just save the page and rip it then (if
thats not what they're already doing) so prob not worth the effort.

Bustards!!!

Legally....can't help, sorry.

Advertising wise,

Promote yourself as the 'Original Medway Handyman' stating that you
are so good that people are hitching a ride on your coat tails /
reputation. As the 'Original and still the best' you can provide
years of practical experience and support this with references.
Reinforce the fact that you do not have to 'Copy people' etc etc


I am sure there must be some legal / copyright redress, but I am only
an Engineer so almost certainly wrong!!!!

ISTM that the similarity is not sufficient for you to win
a case for compensation.

So the guy has used similar section headings as you, but
his list of things that he does is different. You work in a

Anyone else working as a Handyman is going to have

I appreciate that, but some of the wording is actually identical.

For example, my site;

"Ever wanted a PC workstation, but couldn't find one to fit that alcove?
Ever wanted a pergola for the garden but couldn't get the size you wanted?
Or shelving that was either too big or too small?"

I have looked at both sites - I am unsure what they have "copied" -
can you give a bit more info.

Get a registered trademark.

Then, rather than your site having cut-and-paste-able text, your text
could be incorporated into an image that contains a pale background of
your logo/trademark - so the whole thing is a jpeg or gif image.

If your trademark is registered with companies house, you may then
have a straightforward case against rip-off merchants (i.e. by
stealing even part of your trademark, they suggest some association
with your business - so you can claim doing so could harm your
business)

Someone else may be able to give a proper explanation, but I believe
the law is clearer-cut in relation to a registered trademark
(otherwise it's only passing off, and more difficult to prove).

See http://www.ipo.gov.uk/ - there's a big feature right on the front
page as the law changed to improve trademark protection on Oct 1st.

Explanation of the protection a registered trade mark gives you he

If they're copying your site word for word google might see one of

Google has no cause to do so, as far as I can see. You're ignoring the

==================================
You could ignore him / them because you can't prevent legitimate
competition. His / their actual trading name is sufficiently different
from yours to obviate the possibility of confusing your customers,
potential or actual.

If you genuinely feel threatened you might contact your local Trading
Standards to ask them to query this item on your behalf:

"Handyman365.net carry out building repairs, maintenance & home
improvements using experienced local tradesmen. We have business and
domestic clients throughout North Kent."

The name with *365* highlighted suggests that he / they are on permanent
standby and *tradesmen* suggests a properly trained and qualified person -
several in this case. Both seem a little improbable, although not impossible.

Yup in theory they can drop it from the index.
There are all sorts of problems that can happen from duplicate content
being scraped onto scraper sites which can then confuse google and
then the problems can really start.

It's the value of his copy that has been used without

AIUI a claim for passing off (or whatever) will fail in the small

You'd be a fool to pursue it as far as getting litigious. What he
needs do is make sure the oaf is capable at what he is advertising.

If not then the OP needs to post a notice to that effect and that he
is not in any way associated with him or her.

That doesn't want to be on the front page. Even page two is a bit near
the mark. People start looking at stuff like that they get funny
ideas. What he wants is people to get the idea of picking up the phone
and hiring him. Never mind the competition.

And he doesn't need to advertise the other site's address or phone
number. At best it is advertising, at worst it offers a line of
enquiry into a price war.

Be positive. Maybe the guy's good at things you're not, or has tools
that you don't. Maybe he doesn't speak English. Working together might

There's no such thing.

It may be an infringement of your copyright, but it's not theft.

Since this seems to be regular, you really need to consult a lawyer. You
can send them a notice to desist, you can dress it up all fancy, but if
they decide to stick two fingers up to you then you will need a lawyer
to pursue them.

.... you then have to decide if the loss to you is worth the candle.

You might not be losing much if any trade depending on where they are
located. Your 'honour' may well be smarting but only you can put a price
on that.

This happened to me about 10 years ago. I wrote some of (what is now) the
main FAQ on Central Heating, Valves and Heating.

The a local (to me) plumbing agency lifted it word for word onto their
site, along with the contributions from several other people who
frequently posted to uk.d-i-y.

The upshot was that whilst most of us felt ripped off to take matters
further was going to cost. Better to get on and do something useful...

I suppose I should be flattered that this is the second company to steal
my copy word for word.........

Anything I can do?

You share an interesting idea about the use of commas before 'and'.
Otherwise, the grammar on their site is consistent and different from yours
and very little of the text is identical. That strongly suggests that it was
written from scratch, although that is not to say the writer might not have
been influenced by having read the sites of competitors like yourself.

It would be difficult not to create a site for a handyman business without
using virtually the same words every time. If you want to be different, you
need to be the one to undertake that task and come up with innovate text
that won't be the first thing that comes to mind when writing such a site.
If you don't want to do that, you will have to put up with the competition
saying much the same things as you do.
