| Hmmm.... So, their article: http://www.wpexplorer.com/best-builder-wordpress/ Written by Tom Ewer, he writes for us too. In fact, Tom originally started working for us a number of years back, there is bound to be some cross over ;) He's a great guy, met up with him in real life a couple of times. If you enjoyed his article, check out his latest one with us here: http://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/buddypress-interactive-plugi... And our article which you compared with: https://premium.wpmudev.org/blog/10-drag-and-drop-page-build... Content is unique, as are the images. Three links appear to go through WPExplorer which would imply to me that they were a source whilst researching our article. Really sorry to WPExplorer for sending traffic through their link, we've corrected that for them. It's natural that content will overlap, especially for popular themes and plugins or where companies share authors writing for both sites. Companies will also naturally use each other as inspiration, especially in a close community. Not sure that really warranted all the commotion, you really could have just emailed them and CC'd us so that we could correct this matter. No need to make us chase, worrying that one of our staff had simply scraped content, which, of course, would not be cool. Your original tweet"@WPExplorer I’m pretty sure WPMUdev stole a part of an article from you. DM me I’ll send you a link." implied we'd scraped a chunk of their article and stole their work, that was a bit harsh really. Oh well, thanks for letting us know in the end. Next time feel free to just reach out, we're all human and we can all work together. Have a fantastic day. :) |
Of course content is going to overlap, however, affiliate links specific to a single site do not.
A part of your staff added a WPexplorer link in an article of your instead of the actual link. That link wouldn't appear there unless there were some copy pasting going on, the details don't matter, I saw the end result, and commented on it based on the information available.
p.s. Tom Ewer is Raelene Morey ? The post is attributed to Raelene Morey, so I'm not quite sure I understand why are you explaining how nice of a guy Tom is in real life. I'm sure he is, but the article isn't written by him.
Have a fantastic day yourself, today I learned a couple of things about the internet, thank you for that, I truly appreciate all your time spent on the discussion with me.
