Geo Domains & SEO Issues

[RadicalMedia]

Hi

Is there issues to duplicate content on geo specific domains. For example we have a client with a .co.uk site who wants to create a .ie website for the local market, rather than sending them to the UK site. The content would be duplicated with limited customization. What issues would you for-see and how could they be overcome?

Thank you

I wouldn't have exact content.  If it is just one website use the same site structure but change the content.  You can vary your content and messaging, but portray the same theme.  Google doesn't like duplicate content anyway you look at it.  Just my opinion though.
