An odd duplicate content issue...
-
Hi all,
my developers have just assured me that nothing has changed form last week but in the today's crawl I see all the website duplicated:
and the difference on the url is the '/' so basically the duplicated urls are:
htts://blabla.bla/crop
htts://blabla.bla/crop/
Any help in understanding why is much appreciated.
thanks

you currently have
https://www.paydaychannel.co.uk/cash-advance-loans/ & https://www.paydaychannel.co.uk/contact-payday-channel/ with that problem
These are the internal links you need to change to fix it

Hi,
thanks for your email.
I do have a duplicated content issue on the basis of the seomoz crawl, and when I check the duplicated url it shows me those two (as an example but this work for all the entire website):
https://www.paydaychannel.co.uk/cash-advance-loans/
and
https://www.paydaychannel.co.uk/cash-advance-loans
I will check what you say...
thanks

you probably have internal links pointing to htts://blabla.bla/crop & to htts://blabla.bla/crop/
You can use screaming frog to find where those links are and fix them, but Google's algorithm is smart enough to figure this one out. I'd be very surprised if you experience any duplicate content issues because of this.

If anyone has any information on this it would be a great help. thanks E0 -
Minimising the effects of duplicate content
Hello, We realised that one of our clients, copied a large part of content from our website to his. The normal reaction would be to send a cease and desist letter. Nevertheless this would probably mean loosing a good client. The client dumped the text of several articles (for example:

Duplicate content question...
I have a high duplicate content issue on my website. However, I'm not sure how to handle or fix this issue. I have 2 different URLs landing to the same page content. http://www.myfitstation.com/tag/vegan/ and http://www.myfitstation.com/tag/raw-food/ .In this situation, I cannot redirect one URL to the other since in the future I will probably be adding additional posts to either the "vegan" tag or the "raw food tag". What is the solution in this case? Thank you

Standard Responses Causing Duplication Issues
Hi Guys We have a Q&A section on our site which we reply to customers using standard responses which have already been approved. This is causing a lot of duplication errors, however due to the nature of our business we need to use these responses. Is there anything that we can do to stop this? Matthew

Duplicate content - Quickest way to recover?
We've recently been approached by a new client who's had a 60%+ drop in organic traffic. One of the major issues we found was around 60k+ pages of content duplicated across 3 seperate domains. After much discussion and negotiation with them; we 301'd all the pages across to the best domain but traffic is increasing very slowly. Given that the old sites are 60k+ pages each and don't get crawled very often, is it best to notify the domain change through Google Webmaster Tools to try and give Google a 'nudge' to deindex the old pages and hopefully recover from the traffic loss as quickly and as much as possible?

Tags causing Duplicate page content?
I was looking through the 'Duplicate Page Content' and Too Many On-Page Link' errors and they all seem to be linked to the 'Tags' on my blog pages. Is this really a problem and if so how should I be using tags properly to get the best SEO rewards?

Duplicate content issues with australian and us version of website
Good afternoon. I've tried searching for an answer to the following question but I believe my circumstance is a little different than what has been asked in the past. I currently run a Australian website targeted at a specific demographic (50-75) and we produce a LARGE number of articles on a wide variety of lifestyle segments. All of our focus up until now has been in Australia and our SEO and language is dedicated towards this. The next logical step in my mind is to launch a mirror website targeted at the US market. This website would be a simple mirror of a large number of articles (1000+) on subjects such as Food, Health, Travel, Money and Technology. Our current CMS has no problems in duplicating the specific items over and sharing everything, the problem is in the fact that we currently use a .com.au domain and the .com domain in unavailable and not for sale, which would mean we have to create a new name for the US targeted domain. The question is, how will mirroring this information, targeted towards US, affect us on Google and would we better off getting a large number of these articles 're-written' by a company on freelancer.com etc? Thanks,
