Duplicate Content

[Kdruckenbrod]

When I say duplicate content, I don't mean that the content on a clients site is displaying on another site on the web or taken from a site on the web.

A client has a few product pages and each product page has content on the bottom of the page (4-5 paragraphs) describing the product. Now, this content is also displaying on other pages, but re-worded so it's not 100% duplicate. Some pages show a duplicate content % ranging from 12% to 35% and maybe 40%.

Just curious if I should suggest having each product page less than 10% duplicated.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Yes that would be fine even you can make <10% duplicate.

Thanks

Hey there,

absolutely, let's have less than 10% duplicated.

If the products are similar (just different color, size...), use the canonical tag. If the products are different, there shouldn't be a problem to write original content for each of them.

Hope it helps. Cheers, Martin
