Duplicate Content - Joint Press Releases

[sarita-220119]

One of my clients posts Joint Press Releases with it's partners on their blog. The client's partner posts the exact same press release on their website.

I think this must meet the Duplicate Content flag... does anyone have experience in dealing with this?

Sarita,

this is why there is the possibility of canonical tags. More info about canonicalization: learn through moz.com

When you have written the item and share it through any kind of software or partner I would suggest publishing the original first with a canonical tag to your own site, then sending it to the rest and asking them to include the same canonical tag. That way you should be doing fine.

Regards

Jarno
