Duplicate content on my WP blog?

So I know duplicate content on the same site is bad for rankings. I made one post sticky on the home page, so it is in two different places on the same site.

Do you guys thing G is punishing me for that? It may be interesting to note that it was one of very few articles that ranks higher on Yahoo than Google.



Thanks,
Blake

    Just don't interlink them and don't do this for every post Or use static HP with unique content

      Just try to avoid duplicate content, and rather fill your site with quality unique content, Google loves that.

        Well, this technically is duplicate content. But, i personally, and have seen MANY blogs with this layout that are #1 for their target keyword. So i wouldn't worry about it too much.

    The nest is: NEVER DUPLICATE any content even if it is your own. It will hurt either of your blogs.

    Google wouldn't punish you for that, but I strongly suggest you write some high quality content on your sites.
