What Is Page Hijacking?

page hijacking is copying a popular Web page from its original site to a third-party site so that it becomes indexed by search engines. After the links have been established, the content of the page is changed to reflect its real purpose, or it may redirect the user to a different site.
 
Page jacking is stealing the contents of a site by copying some of its pages, putting them on a website that appears to be the legitimate site, and then welcoming people to the illegal site by unreliable. The term page jacking is a combination of the words Web page and hijacking, signifying that a Web page has been hijacked.
