I had a notice pop up a week ago about someone stealing my content and I contacted them right away and got them to take it down, but HubPages hasn't rechecked the hub yet so that I can have that notice go away.
I was just curious how long it takes to cycle back through because I don't see a link to push to have it be re-checked.
Oh Bugger.... You may have to do the exercise manually yourself then....
just like those of us on here who aren't so pampered
Whatever program internal to HubPages checks for duplicate content on the net runs seemingly randomly. It's even more random than whatever is is that calculates HubScore.
Also there may be a bug in that program right now as I'm finding the system hasn't been recognizing when duplicated content has been taken down for several months now (you don't get the little X that allows you to cancel the alert) and I've been following up on a trouble ticket about that with admin.
Ahh OK, I wasn't sure because it seemed like things were re-checked quicker in the past.
I'll just wait it out and see.
Oh, and after reading your one hub I mean "copied" not duplicate... I published the hub a year ago and a few places copied it.
I've never gotten a duplicate content alert, always copied...
But I'll just wait until it goes away.

I would like to make a suggestion to the TEAM here on HUB Pages. I feel that it would be a positive improvement here on the HUB, if all of the activity that is perpetuated by Hubbers, were made known.For instance... apparently - anyone can go around giving thumbs UP or DOWN to a fellow...

I'm migrating an article from my blog to hubpages. I've been able to get around the duplicate content filters in the past by ensuring that I have my 301 permanent redirects setup before publishing--it always works.I forgot to do that on the latest article I'm trying to publish, and of course the...

How often does google/hp check for duplicate content?I just updated a post - Lost in translation - with a rewrite of it on my website, and the original here. Just wondering how long it will display duplicate content on it. Thank you

I'm not sure if I asked this before, so I checked and didn't see anything.I like to manually check all answers to my questions of duplicate content. Since I don't immediately check answers as I receive them (or the notifications), I think this would be much easier if I had a checkbox or something...
