    Hmm it can do yes, the odd one you might get away with!

    If you have loads of pages then I would suggest not having any at all


    Kind of worrying question from someone who sells seo services!!

    let me tell you the better way to find and remove the duplicate meta descriptions. Go to web master tools and open html suggestions tab and you can find how many duplicate meta descriptions you have out there .. remove them all because they are harmful for your website specially after Google Panda

    Ofcouse having duplicate content, meta titles and meta descriptions can hurt your search engines placement and rankings, if you use Google's webmasters then you can check if your contact is doing his work correctly.
