Try to avoid this common SEO mistakes...

thanks for the tips! but how much duplication until it is considered as a duplication page? a paragraph? entire page?

 

personally for me, i don't really count what is my keyword density. I just write my articles in the way that i think brings out the points and perhaps insert an occasional deliberate keyword instead of using 'it' or other descriptives. I believe that at the end of the day, if your article is good content, it will reap the benefits.....

 

seems it's becoming a habit?

Threads such as this that infringe on another's intellectual property rights should be deleted and the poster should be banned. pathetic.

 

Especially when they go on other threads replying to "Wanted Ads" and promoting their SEO Expertise.

 

KC, The duplicate content you mean does it mean that you can't use the same content if it has been used in the main site?

if i put the my identical content on another domain site (which i purchase for its PR7) it is consider as black hat izzit?

What would be the right way to do?

 

yeah that would be considered as duplicate content if the same article exists on more than one site. what you can do is play with the text by changing it without changing the meaning of it and for that you have to be good in your editing skills i must say.

 

Irregardless of external or internal domain / pages, we should not never use duplicated content.

Notice they use the word, substantially. This would answer quirkyericia's doubt

Is duplicate content decided by site age? I mean older site is the original?

 

no, that would be flawed. there has to be an allowance. reproduction of various media occurs naturally, and Google can't expect every single thing to be "unique."

 

he got what he's done. his rep is red now.
hope he learnt from this mistake.

 

Thats Correct. I too vote for the same. I have reported this thread.

 

good piece of info ...
thanks for the knowledge you gave us

 

Let's not be too harsh. Just give him a slight warning, and next time he should just credit the original writer. Perhaps his intention was not too copy, but he forgot to give credit.

I myself believe in forgiveness.
