can i just right the copyright details at the bottom of my site pages
, as i created it so i own the rights, or is it not as simple as that. ( Looks a bit unprofessional without this at the mo) something like "

Just take a look at the copyright notice at the bottom of my website - that's all you need.

Copyright is implied whether or not you post a notice of copyright.

A copyright notice ads credibility though it isn't necessary. As I mentioned above, it is implied whether or not you place it on your site.
If you decide to stop someone from using your work, there are many inexpensive ways to start. You can simply send out a Decease and desist order and take it from there. You can create it yourself at no charge. You can step it up from there.
Often times, these matters are settled out of court.
