article duplicate content

Networking_now · 06-10-2009, 04:37 AM

this debate goes on for ever. but i have seen many decent marketers have their articles on multiple sites. so it works to some extent

ken_p · 06-10-2009, 05:33 AM

what about article flipping? i thought thats the way to avoid, duplication of content.

googleninja · 06-10-2009, 05:47 AM

personally i never really believe duplicate content is of a big issue especially if most of you;re traffic is from paid advertising like pay-per click and stuffs

ladysuccesstips · 06-10-2009, 07:18 AM

I think it also doesn't matter much. Have also found a bunch of duplicate content which is sometimes competing with each other. What important is the quality backlinks it generates your site.

Jon Alexander · 06-10-2009, 07:56 AM

duplicate content is getting less and less effective, because all the engines are getting better at detecting it.

Just so that this thread doesn't descend into a misinformation pile
of poo, it's been shown time after time..

There is NO duplicate content
penalty for content on multiple
websites.

Google has even posted this on their webmasters blog.

that's right. It's just that the modern filters se's use mean that duplicate content no longer does you much good. SE's want to provide a 'good user experience'. Showing 10 results for the exact same article on one page is almost a definition of a bad user experience. Which is why they spend (and are continuing to spend) such a lot of effort filtering it out.

Kay King · 06-10-2009, 09:35 AM

That's the problem - you get over-explanation and over-interpretation which leads to more confusion and to more wrong assumptions.

There are hundreds of terms that, when googled, show a first page of results filled with sites with the SAME article on them. That's because with articles, the term is "syndication", not "duplication".

Duplicate penalty does not apply to article marketing. Even google says so - and they should know. Threads on the topic are often started by people hoping to get their links seen.

issue of duplicate content is contentious, as a content writer myself for a leading SEO company i know the importance of unique original content. But, its sometimes just too time consuming to post different unique articles on different websites. I agree with the above poster, but if you have an ecommerce site I think it's always best to make sure the content you have on it is unique.

Kay King · 06-10-2009, 09:56 AM

I agree - unique content is best. However, that doesn't mean (as I think you know) that using reprinted articles is bad.

Both types of content have their uses.

In other words, NO DUPLICATE CONTENT PENALTY.

Jon Alexander · 06-10-2009, 10:14 AM

Google, AFAIK, makes no distinction between an 'article' and other content. I'm not aware that there is some little guy in the Google basement reviewing every piece of content in the universe and saying 'Yup, thats an article, nope thats not, nope thats not, Yup, thats an article'.

It would be funny if it were true, of course!

shopperama · 06-11-2009, 02:47 AM

I agree that there is no duplicate content penalty. Thing is I believe there is no benefit either. For the sake of user experience Google will show only what it's bot calculates is the "authority" version attempting to find the contents origination.

Brian.expert · 06-11-2009, 03:00 AM

I guess its fine to have duplicate content on multiple sites. Even some people have their same articles posted on multiple sites and thats seems to be fine for all the sites as far as the search biggies goes. So far I haven't seen these sites getting banned from searches!

hmigroupllc · 06-11-2009, 07:21 AM

Bottom line is always - there is no duplicate content penalties for material on multiple sites so - what is your goal in article marketing?

Google will only rank one of your copies of your articles. But that doesn't necessarily make it bad to submit it to multiple directories.

Submitting the same artlices gets your link posted in many different places. It is as simple as that.

People will click your links, whether it is duplicate content or not.

So, I publish an article first to a big directory like ezinearticles. Then I distibute it to multiple directories.

Sometimes I spin it. Sometimes I re-write it. Most times, I don't bother. I get links either way, and people come to my pages.
