Having been there and done that I would warn against having two or more websites selling the same products with the same titles, numbers, pictures & descriptions. If you must set up different domains with the same products then you must create two, three, (however many sites you have) different on page descriptions and preferable photographs, style titles, numbers and meta. You should also consider the fact that it is likely that the sites will share a server and have the same cross site company information. Both of which can send negative information to Google and other search engines. It is pure folly to expect to rank well for two or more sites selling exactly the same products with identical information. Not to mention the additional work associated with writing all the content, producing graphics and keeping the site up to date.

I think you posted this message before seeing my last response, but you'l notice that they use "results" (like us) and google it picking up on that,  but your site has nothing after the number

Hey Russ, there is no canonical issues for the pages I have demoted.

OH! I thought it was a new snippet that we were talking about - somehow Google showcasing Free Shipping or COD more prominently. Thanks for clarifying this more Alick!

Thanks for your answer. Yes, its possible when I am the owner of the blog. But having my website placed on some other blogs blogroll which is recurring shouldn't harm my website until the following points that you have addressed. "But if the area on the page is titled: sponsored, advertising, etc, google will know the link is paid for and if it's not nofollowed it could be a problem. Is the link paid for? If yes, be careful. Also review the other links around it, if it's surrounded by other external links that aren't relevant be careful." Thank you, you addressed some valuable points. Regards, Susan Smith

Hello Nick, Thanks for your answer. We determine that we got penalized when we found that most of our primary keywords which sent us traffic got disappeared from the ranking after the penguin update. We did not rush with the decision of using Disavow, we lost our ranking in May 2012 and till Dec 2012 we tried to make corrections to get aligned with the Penguin guidelines. We did not see any improvements and in Jan 2013 we decided to use Disavow. Yes, we did used Open Site Explorer to extract our backlinks, we also used Ahrefs and Bing to collect backlink data. Our concern is with the unusual change in the number of backlinks in Google webmaster tool. After we sent our Disavow list Google immediately removed all those backlinks from their record and we saw a sudden decrease in our number of backlinks in the Google Webmaster tool, this appeared to us that Google is re-considering our website, but after a week the backlinks that were removed and disavowed appeared again in the webmaster tool. In fact we disavowed twice and if you see the below table again you will notice an unusual fluctuation in the backlink numbers. Date     Scenario 03-Jan     Google webmaster shows 112,317 Backlinks 07-Jan     First Disavow List Sent 07-Jan     Reconsideration Sent 27-Jan     Google webmaster shows 38,678 backlinks        No Improvements in ranking 04-Feb     Second Disavow List Sent - (Does not include backlinks we disavow in the first list) 05-Feb     Google webmaster shows 7,164 backlinks 11-Feb     Google webmaster shows 1,892 backlinks 12-Feb     Google webmaster shows 36,808 backlinks Backlinks are the cause for Penguin penalization according to Google and other experts, therefore we are so much concerned about mentioning and discussing it. ================================================================== We are also expecting an answers from someone at the SEOMOZ Staff
