      If you have the same sentences or paragraphs on multiple pages of your website, is this considered duplicate content and will it hurt SEO?

        Hi there,

        Yes, that is correct. It will be considered as duplicate content. You can need to rewrite this content, otherwise, Google might not index those pages.
