EzineArticle & Blog - Same Articles. Will I Be Penalized?

    Guys,

    I need to clear this doubt of mine. Say, if I submitted a keyword optimized article to EzineArticles, then later posted it on my blog, does it count as DUPLICATE content? Will Google 'penalize' my blog in this case?

    Vice versa, if I post it on my blog first, then on EzineArticles, does the Big G view my article as duplicate?

    Any thoughts? Thanks

    Ben

    Alright, thanks. I guess I'll just post them on my site and get Google to index it then.

    Rewrite the article and post it at both places, with a link to the original from the ezinearticle to your blog post.

    Ideally you should rewrite the articles before submitting them o the article directories.
    Submitting the same content will just result in duplicate content.

    It would likely be considered duplicate content with ezinearticles winning out due to greater authority. You won't necessarily get penalized for one duplicate article though.

    yes it is going to be considered by google as a duplicated content , but it`s not necessary that you will be penalized by that , it will just give you bad ranking .
