    Hi,

    I have read that having duplicate content can hurt your ranking or even get you blacklisted..

    I run a few websites in parallel niches. By and large, the websites carry their own content but a few articles I have penned are featured on more than one website (due to a crossover in interests).

    Is this advisable? Will this be problematic for me?

    I have noticed that a lot of article websites have duplicate content but seem to be doing ok with the SERPS...

    Thanks,
    Paul

    There will be no problem with this. There is no duplicate content penalty - Google filters duplicate content.

    Alan,

    Many thanks for that. I was getting worried there - even heard that Duplicate Content was against AdSense's TOS...
