I'm not getting much traffic-wise, but since they're only posting an excerpt and such not much harm is being done. I haven't done anything about it so far, but let me know what you do, and good luck! @nepspeed82,

About the scrapers, I've encountered about two already who's posting my content under some strange author "abu khalagit" something. And I found it because it's sending me traffic from their site and one of the highest referrer actually. They never really scrape my feed hardcore, just a portion of it with a "read more" anchor text that links back to me. I got to hand it to them for not forgetting to link back to me except that they didn't asked for my permission to repost my feed. I want to report them to google but I was having second thoughts since it's a also link back to my blog which helps with my traffic too. I don't know maybe I should leave them alone for now. <em>nepspeed82's last blog post..<a href='http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/ulupongdotcom/~3/276713100/soge-shirts.html' rel="nofollow">Soge Shirts</a></em> I’m using full feeds too, and I kinda find it inconvenient to jump from my reader to the feed’s blog.

Now after reading your post I am reverting back to partial feeds. Since my site offers several sections for readers to look at, the full feed could actually pull away from that and readers could miss some older greater posts. <em>Koka's last blog post..<a href='http://kokasexton.com/word/index.php/2008/04/the-naked-vlog-campaign/' rel="nofollow">The Naked Vlog Campaign</a></em> I have always been a fan of offering the full feed view.

@m-alo,

Obviously my content is more important to me than my design, but both do go hand-in-hand. I can’t have my content wrecking up the design, but I can’t have the design be the only thing I care about. It’s a tough balance. Thanks for sharing your opinions!
