Duplicate content in the same site...

Hi ...

I am interesting to put in my site in 10 pages a "Why us" Paragraph which include few lines of text.

I am not sure if I am going to have problems with search engines and especially google.

Any ideas? Am I going to get bad points because of a duplicate copntent?

Thanks!

Guy.

 

i was thinking about a similar thing to put on my site, too. However, I believe that after Jagger it is better to change almost every text slightly.
The question that comes to my mind: Do i really want google to be my god?

 

Ok, so how Yahoo and MSN act compares to google?

 

I don't think you'll have a problem with duplicate content. Otherwise all sites would suffer because their headers, footers and navigation are essentially the same on all pages.

As long as the text you "repeat" on each page isn't a "substantial" portion of the total page content, you should be OK.

 

I agree.

As long as it isn't the only thing on the page, then it shouldn't be a problem.

 

I will also chime in to agree about the a small amount of repeated text not causing any problems. It seems that people have become overly sensitive about this.
