Google Duplicate Content Myth 2011

So, I tested it out on one of my WordPress site and removed all "noindex" tags from categories, tags, search, errors, archives....

Google does not penalize for on site duplicate content when it comes to the structure your site. Google is smart enough to pick and sort the content on your site.

i urinate on google.. and google gargles...

Klen · 09-02-2011, 07:32 AM

Yes it is probably myth,but i already started developing scripts which should eliminate duplicates to zero so fuck it :D

Dupe content is a fucking falacy script and plugin developers started to profit.

My best mainstream site, wich gets tens of thousands of visits a day is a wp blog with no seo plugin, indexable tags and categories, etc etc.

It should have tons of onsite duplicated content and be super penalized by google bit it gets tens of thounsans a day instead.

Oh, and i havent updated it in 14 months...

google myths are made by seo experts

TheSquealer · 09-02-2011, 07:55 AM

The problem is that people don't understand the origins and meanings of these things. This started many many years ago and it was addressing the problem of ranking by keyword stuffing and repeating content throughout a site (footers etc, multiple pages with the same paragraphs, blatantly stuffing the site with excessive keywords on every page etc) and ranking each page for the same phrases. There has never been any real issue with duplicate content for anyone other than spammers and this has never impacted anyone.

To be addressing this or even talking about this in 2011 is so absurd. Google is barely comparable to what it was when this "myth" became popularized.

MediaGuy · 09-02-2011, 08:10 AM

Google doesn't care about duplicate content as long as the whole site isn't a dupe with only a different url.

Especially since rss and Atom syndication went through the roof.

Some guys have hundreds of blogs and cms roll-outs with exactly the same content and different css/layouts or structure, and they aren't penalized.

The first/oldest one is always the highest ranked though.

:D

My Pimp · 09-02-2011, 08:30 AM

That does not suprise me. Google is very smart.

potter · 09-02-2011, 08:40 AM

So let's say it is a myth, and Google doesn't care.

How does that make it ok for webmasters to simply be lazy and not do proper upkeep of their sites?

Your site shouldn't have dupe content, if there is dupe content you're doing it wrong. If "Page A" exists at two URLs on your site - you should fix that, not come up with excuses of why it's ok. Lazy bastards...

they dont penalize it, they just dont index it, so no point really changing anything about your structure.

ManPuppy · 09-02-2011, 10:00 AM

True, there is no penalty. However, because of ManPuppy's categorized structure, I use link rel="canonical" to divert the "juice" from individual video pages to their parent category pages, where the video descriptions are duplicated. Before I did this, Google was indexing the individual video pages, which were not ranking highly, if at all. Collective juice pointed at the category pages has given many of them first page rankings for some of my target keywords very quickly.

JamesGw · 09-02-2011, 10:15 AM

Canonical urls are always good, since they focus all of your link juice as manpuppy said. That said, I've never had a problem with duplicate aside from having a hard time ranking two duplicate websites on the first page for the same phrase.

always was like that. noindexing categories and such was seo myths and parnoia.

AdultKing · 09-02-2011, 04:37 PM

As fris said, there is no "penalty", they will just ignore your site.

If you have a site full of duplicate content then over time it will just disappear out of the Google SERPS or at best end up in a supplemental index. If it's manually reviewed then definitely say bye bye to the site.

Original, quality content wins - there is no debate about this.
