Internal Duplicate Content Question...
-
We are looking for an internal duplicate content checker that is capable of crawling a site that has over 300,000 pages. We have looked over Moz's duplicate content tool and it seems like it is somewhat limited in how deep it crawls. Are there any suggestions on the best "internal" duplicate content checker that crawls deep in a site?

If you want to a free test to crawl use this
https://www.deepcrawl.com/forms/free-crawl-report/
Please remember that URIs & URLs are different so your site with 300,000 URLs might have 600,000 URIs if you want to see how it works for free you can sign up for a free crawl for your first 10,000 pages.
I am not affiliated with the company aside from being a very happy customer.

Far no way the Best is going to be deep Crawl it automatically connects to Google Webmaster tools and analytics.
it can crawl constantly for ever. The real advantage is setting it to five URLs per second and depending on the speed of your server it will do it consistently I would not go over five pages per second. Make sure that you pick a dynamic IP structuring if you do not have a strong web application firewall if you do pick a single static IP then you can crawl the entire tire site without issue by white listing it. Now this is my personal opinion and I know what you're asking to be accomplished in the literally no time compared to other systems using deep crawl deepcrawl.com
It will show you what duplicate content is contained inside your website duplicate URLs what duplicate title tags you name it.

You have a decent sized website and I would recommend adding a free edition of Robotto.org Robotto, can detect whether a preferredwww or non-www option has been configured correctly.
A lot of issues with web application firewall and CDNs you name it can be detected using the school and the combination of them is a real one-two punch. I honestly think that you will be happy with this tool. I have had issues with anything local like screaming frog when crawling surcharge websites you do not want to depend on your desktop ram. I hope you will let me know if this is a good solution for you I know that it works very very well and it will not stop crawling until it finds everything. Your site will be finished before 24 hours are done.

Correct, Thomas. We are not looking to restructure the site at this time but we are looking for a program that will crawl 300,000 plus pages and let us know which internal pages are duplicated.

If the tool has to crawl more than a crawl depth of 100 it is very common to find something that's able to do it. Like a said deep crawl, screaming frog & Moz is but you're talking about finding content that shouldn't be restructured.

If you looking for the most powerful tool for crawling websites deepcrawl.com is the king. Screaming frog it Is good but is dependent on RAM on your desktop. And does not have as many features as deep crawl

Check out Siteliner. I've never tried it with a site that big, personally. But it's free, so worth a shot to see what you can get out of it.

Duplicate content. Competing for rank.
Scenario: An automotive dealer lists cars for sale on their website. The descriptions are very good and in depth at 1,200 words per car. However chunks of the copy are copied from car review websites and weaved into their original copy. Q1: This is flagged in copyscape - how much of an issue is this for Google? Q2: The same stock with the same copy is fed into a popular car listing website - the dealer's website and the classifieds website often rank in the top two positions (sometimes the dealer on top other times the classifieds site). Is this a good or a bad thing? Are you risking being seen as duplicating/scraping content? Thank you.

Product descriptions & Duplicate Content: between fears and reality
Hello everybody, I've been reading quite a lot recently about this topic and I would like to have your opinion about the following conclusion: ecommerce websites should have their own product descriptions if they can manage it (it will be beneficial for their SERPs rankings) but the ones who cannot won't be penalized by having the same product descriptions (or part of the same descriptions) IF it is only a "small" part of their content (user reviews, similar products, etc). What I mean is that among the signals that Google uses to guess which sites should be penalized or not, there is the ratio "quantity of duplicate content VS quantity of content in the page" : having 5-10 % of a page text corresponding to duplicate content might not be harmed while a page which has 50-75 % of a content page duplicated from an other site... what do you think? Can the "internal" duplicated content (for example 3 pages about the same product which is having 3 diferent colors -> 1 page per product color) be considered as "bad" as the "external" duplicated content (same product description on diferent sites) ? Thanks in advance for your opinions!

Is an RSS feed considered duplicate content?
I have a large client with satellite sites. The large site produces many news articles and they want to put an RSS feed on the satellite sites that will display the articles from the large site. My question is, will the rss feeds on the satellite sites be considered duplicate content? If yes, do you have a suggestion to utilize the data from the large site without being penalized? If no, do you have suggestions on what tags should be used on the satellite pages? EX: wrapped in tags? THANKS for the help. Darlene

Is a "Critical Acclaim" considered duplicate content on an eCommerce site?
I have noticed a lot of wine sites use "Critical Acclaims" on their product pages. These short descriptions made by industry experts are found on thousands of other sites. One example can be found on a Wine.com product page. Wine.com also provides USG through customer reviews on the page for original content. Are the "Critical Acclaim" descriptions considered duplicate content? Is there a way to use this content and it not be considered duplicate (i.e. link to the source)?

Concerns about duplicate content issues with australian and us version of website
My company has an ecommerce website that's been online for about 5 years. The url is www.betterbraces.com. We're getting ready to launch an australian version of the website and the url will be www.betterbraces.com.au. The australian website will have the same look as the US website and will contain about 200 of the same products that are featured on the US website. The only major difference between the two websites is the price that is charged for the products. The australian website will be hosted on the same server as the US website. To ensure Australians don't purchase from the US site we are going to have a geo redirect in place that sends anyone with a AU ip address to the australian website. I am concerned that the australian website is going to have duplicate content issues. However, I'm not sure if the fact that the domains are so similar coupled with the redirect will help the search engines understand that these sites are related. I would appreciate any recommendations on how to handle this situation to ensure oue rankings in the search engines aren't penalized. Thanks in advance for your help. Alison French
