Found this today with the Google Alerts keyword I have setup for my site name. Look at how many bids!

My only fear is that it'll be a scraped site, but in the end, I guess I'm kind of flattered. Actually, REW should be flattered since you have people out there wanted to mimic your work.

We have had our site posted for copying there several times. Those wanting to copy REW sites is probably because they figure they can have it done with a freelancer for less money. In the end, they'll probably get a junk site seeing as how their budget is between $1K-$5K.

I am never flattered when I see our site posted somewhere to be copied. I consider those wanting to copy anyone elses site to be thieves and unethical agents.

I didn't really take this post to be a request to be scraped though. It's more of a, "Hey...I like this site can you make me one like it."

I can see your point though. If it was scraped I'd be furious.
