Find out whether a copy of your shop is showing up on Google and in ads

Copied shops show Google and ad reviews your original, legal notice (Impressum) included, and show your customers someone else's shop. AntiClone finds them, secures evidence and, after its own review, reports every copy you confirm in your name until it is offline.

Your shop runs on WooCommerce, Shopware or another platform

Enter your shop. AntiClone compares it for free with every shop in the index and usually emails you within 24 hours to tell you what it found.

You will get an email with a confirmation link in a moment. The check only starts after you confirm.

Google sees your shop, your customers see a different one

Pattern: zero instead of o, .net instead of .com, hard to tell apart in many fonts

A mirrored copy sits at an address that looks confusingly like yours, or under a completely unrelated name. Behind it is your entire shop with all its products, photos and texts.

When a search engine or the ad review of an ad network requests the address, it is shown your real shop, with company name and address. That way the site passes every check with your name.

A person in a browser sees your products at the same address in a different design and at bait prices that make your real price look too high. Payment often goes through a form that asks for card details.

If you open such an address yourself, you see the other shop and take it for just another merchant. That is why you cannot find a copy like this on your own.

The scheme step by step

The copy harms you on Google, in advertising and with your customers, even without a single sale

In times of SEO and GEO, that is visibility on Google and in the answers of AI search, a copy can do serious damage to your shop. If it shows search engines and AI systems your content and your legal notice, it can take over exactly the visibility you have built up.

  1. It competes on Google for your own search terms

    Because search engines read your real shop on the copy, legal notice included, it can show up with your name in search and in AI assistants. It takes places that should belong to your shop.

  2. It can run ads with your name

    The ad reviews of the ad networks are shown your original too. So the copy can advertise on exactly the terms you pay for yourself.

  3. Its buyers complain to you

    If the goods never arrive, the customer blames the name that Google displayed. Questions, complaints and bad reviews end up with you.

You confirm the copy with one click and AntiClone takes care of the rest

A single email to the hosting provider is rarely enough. A copy disappears when server, domain and payments all fall away. For that, AntiClone prepares every report, checks every case you confirm and then sends the reports in your name.
