Does having a few URLs pointing to another url via 301 "create" duplicate content?

[IoanSaid]

Hello!

I have a few URLs all related to  the same business sector.

Can I point them all at my home domain or should I point them to different relevant content within it?

Loan,

It seems like you're asking two different questions here: Do multiple 301's pointing to a single page create duplicate content--and Is it better to point 301's to your home page or a more relevant internal page.  Is that right?  The answer to the first question is no, you don't have to worry about duplicate content being caused by your 301 redirects.  As far as the second question, it's usually best to point a 301 redirect to a page on a site that is the most relevant to the one being redirected.  However, if the page you're thinking about redirecting isn't getting any search traffic and/or doesn't have any external links gong to it, your redirect won't really have an impact on your SEO
