I have been receiving comments from some other bloggers on my websites who are concerned because other blogs are copying their articles. They were asking how to avoid that others are stealing their unique content and they are concerned that it will impact their domains with pagerank, especially if the ones stealing their blogs have a higher pagerank. Unfortunately everyone with a blog has experienced that their blogs are copied – my own blog is no exception. My own experience is that it works to report it to DMCA, but for the ones I don’t report, they do not last long anyway, as they in time get filtered out by Google, so I do not bother too much about it really.
