Snipesearch DMCA Takedown Request (Please read in full before sending)

Reading the information below fully improves the the swiftness of takedowns.

Snipesearch is a manual inclusion search and aggregation service. Here is how it works.

You email your sites RSS feed to addmysite@snipesearch.co.uk and we check the feed. Providing the feed is not spam we add it for indexing. Every few hours the feeds are scanned for updates and the latest posts are shown in the correct catagories.  To avoid any DMCA issues we will not post FULL TEXT only the intro text part of your article, if your whole article is showing, your sites RSS generator has been set up to sent the entire text in the preiview/intro text section of the RSS feed. We do not check every post, simply the RSS feed itself so if your site is doing this we will not know as articles are imported automatically once added. If you are seeing the full article please review settings. 

Images in articles are NEVER downloaded, images will be displayed with your article ONLY of you have a featured image listed with your article and this image will ONLY be loaded if your site allows the image to be remotelly loaded.  This allows us to work on the premise that you both chose to send the image and allowed it to be remotelly loaded, this is an attempt to avoid any DMCA violations with images.

It is possible on occasion that you did not submit your feed yourself, but instead upon hiring an SEO company to generate you backlinks they may have mass submitted your feed, this is because XML feeds create fantastic quality backlinks and having articles remotelly published is one of the most effective forms of SEO link building.

The search service uses indexing and agregation, using a combination of our own indexing and remote search APIs to give you the most balanced search results possible while maintaining your privacy as our first order. 

Snipesearch has been fully DMCA compliant and ahead of the privacy curve since September 2009. 

We do not host any text or image content, it is always delivered directly from your feed to the user, in our custom display format. If your feed contains advert code, this will also be displayed.

If you see an article on our site that you do not wish to be published here, please fill in the form below and we will endevour to remove it within 14 days (we have a fairly large index so this can take time, but we will process every request). Please be aware removing it from our search index will not remove if from other locations on the internet, if your content is being distributed without consent it is best to locate the source as removing it from there will automatically purge it from hgere in 90 days or less, but will also remove it from any location it should not be on accross the net.
