Have 2 sites, one PPC - one organic, can I be penalized for duplicate content

gfaul · 02-01-2012, 07:50 AM

Recently we had a review by Google saying our PPC campaign was paused and under review, not compliant per the Google policy, we have sinced fixed the issue and the campaign is back running.

My question is this, we have another URL that is ranked organically and is of the original content we started with, both sites were similar in content but the PPC was a lander page and the other is a traditional 10 page site, both selling the same product and has the same look and feel.

Now that the PPC is back up and running, can the adwords campaign get paused again due to the content on my organic page (this page has never had or used a ppc campaign so no need for compliance here correct?)

And what i mean by compliance was just some text, Will I have an issue with Duplicate content here? html code, images etc....

Any Feedback is appreciated

Different domains mean the content is not classed as duplicate.

Get new content on the organic site first, let it get indexed and backlink to it. Then publish to the ppc site where it wont matter if it gets indexed and you wont need to backlink it.

Can't see that being an issue.

I wonder if they gave you the "Doorway Page" error...
