I am just getting started blogging. I have 36 years experience playing. I feel your pain. I hear what used to be “my” stuff in songs on the radio so exact sometimes, I wonder if they listened to old radio program archives from my home area. Anyway, posting a “help” plea here. I have tapped into a revolutionary new way to learn guitar (or other fretted instrument) and bass that gets people stage ready quickly. I’ve had shocking results with my students. One girl learned bass in a week, practiced unplugged for the rest of that month, auditioned for a band and got in. It was the first time she played the bass plugged in! I need help getting the word out. My blog is called the bcustom imagination. I’m not a marketer or salesman, but hope to replace my income selling this system, and some information products related to guitars & basses. I also build guitars and basses, repair instruments and some amps. If you or someone you know would like to own a bcustom instrument, I can be reached at axeman@basicisp.net. I will pay you for referrals that buy. Let me know either way. Thanks

Thanks. Yes I’m aware of that and I want my letter to appear on their sites.

Cheers Tony

Some of them are just scrappers, there is no “real person” behind. If you say that they use portions of your posts, I suspect scrappers. It happens to me too. In case you are not familiar with this concept, scrappers are automated blog-like software that take content from various sites on a given theme in order to build their own “syndicated” content, to sell advertising. So if this is the case, there is not much you can do than relax, everybody’s been there. Me included…
