I've been creating a number of blogger.com blogs for SEO purposes after learning this model from someone experienced just for the sake of getting links within the posts towards my main landing pages. Here's what happened: I set up 7 blogs with 2 - 4 posts each, all pages targeted on different keywords. Each post has been bookmarked for better page rank. Everything was fine, traffic was flowing in and each page of these blogs was indexed in Google. I have to mention that I was using duplicate content on every blog (except for a few posts). I have been using duplicate content on several other sites without getting them de-indexed. When I've checked if they're still indexed I've noticed that Google has sandboxed all my blogs (none of them appear in the results anymore). Therefore lots of useless work and efforts for peanuts.. What say you? Has anyone been going through this before? I mean I haven't heard of google de-indexing blogger blogs before..
Yes..Really shocking. So I have one question how many times we can use our one content for blogs..? Is it necessary to use new content in every post?
It's not a rule of thumb that you'll get de-indexed for duplicate content. My blogs have been sandboxed (they're completely thrown out of google) that is why I am asking someone more experienced to explain if such a thing can happen simply because of duplicate content.
