Title: Has anyone else noticed Stack Overflow clones in Google search results? They come up frequently for me. I can&#x27;t help but wonder who&#x27;s behind these. It can&#x27;t be hurting Stack Overflow&#x27;s SEO.<p>So far I have saved 5 different domains, and it looks like 2 have vanished.<p>- [dead] http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.codeitive.com&#x2F;0izVUjjXVP&#x2F;selective-foreign-key-usage-in-django-maybe-with-limitchoicesto-argument.html<p>- [dead] http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.codedisqus.com&#x2F;0QmqWVgjgg&#x2F;hide-label-in-django-admin-fieldset-readonly-field.html<p>- http:&#x2F;&#x2F;w3facility.org&#x2F;question&#x2F;image-servingurl-and-google-storage-blobkey-not-working-on-development-server&#x2F;<p>- http:&#x2F;&#x2F;goobbe.com&#x2F;questions&#x2F;3109325&#x2F;how-can-i-disable-a-third-party-api-when-executing-django-unit-tests<p>- http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ciiycode.com&#x2F;0HyN6eQxgjXP&#x2F;django-admin-inline-popups<p>I actually wrote Stack Overflow support about this in April 2015, but so far nothing has changed. Here&#x27;s the thread:<p>Me: &quot;Hello,
 There a lots of spam results on Google. As a web developer, I am frequently googling for how to resolve some programming issue. Often, I get these spoofing sites that link to stack overflow.<p>I would suggest adding a stricter robots.txt or perhaps blocking some of these bots that are scraping your site.<p>Here is an example.

I&#x27;ve passed the information along to the person at our company who handles such issues.
