Privacy Policy Page

[lirikh]

Hey all, I just wanted to know how do you guys setup your privacy policy page? Do you copy/paste it? Change a few words? Or completely re-write it?

I'm curious about it because I don't want to have duplicate content on my website, and I'm not really good at writing legal content on my own.

Where's the best place to outsource these kinds of thing?

Thanks!

Oh and I forgot, kinda off topic, where's the best place to outsource article writing?? I want someone to write some articles for my website, but I don't want to pay too much as I think I can do it by myself -- it's just that I'm not a fluent writer and writing gets me demotivated :P
How much usually does a 600-700 words article cost?

If you're using Wordpress, install "Easy Privacy Policy" plugin. Has everything you need for most sites, including adsense sites. You can even add custom text.


Didn't see the last part until I sent the msg. I use 99centarticles, if I'm not mistaken the person is on WF. I'm in no way affiliated with them, but their work is awesome. I usually get one of their 500 word article with distribution packs, and that runs about $8 an article.

You can order it without the article marketing for cheaper. They don't have 600-700 articles listed, but I think you can custom order.

Does every website with that plugin have the same privacy policy page? Or does the plugin spins the words?

I'll check out 99centarticles, sounds good. I don't want the distribution pack though as I don't article marketing -- don't find it much useful.

You can get the basic privacy policy from freeprivacypolicy.com. Then do basic modification and enjoy

Lots of privacy policies must be very similar, I would just spin a few parts manually,
should it be noindex ?

Why are you worrying about duplicate content on your Privacy Policy page?

You are very, very, very unlikely to rank for it in SERPs regardless of the fact that it is seen as duplicate content or not. Anyway, in the highly unlikely event that your privacy policy page ranks high enough up on Google for anyone to click on it, unless your website is about Privacy on the web, your SERP visitor is pretty likely to exit almost immediately.

If the duplicate content issues worry you that much, just put a noindex meta tag on the page.

I search in google and find a good privacy policy from other sites and after that I simply copy and paste the policy and I do make a little changes before publishing..

Can google associate duplicate content of one page, for this instance the Privacy Policy page, to the entire website -- thus affecting the whole website?

Unless you have the same privacy policy somewhere else on your own website you won't get a duplicate content 'penalty'.

Its fine to use one from somewhere else on the web. Change a few words if you want but it doesn't really matter.
