Post earning articles to many sites?

    I own web sites that publish news from different areas (IT, hobby, health,etc.). Every now and then I pick up an interesting articles and receive lots of visitors (and clicks). A couple of weeks ago, by mistake, I posted the same article on two of my sites and visitors started clicking on both ads (they didn't know it's the same article). Of course, I got more clicks/earning.

    I got afraid that this is against Adsense TOS and deleted the article from one site. Now I am not sure if this is really forbidden.

    My question is: if I suspect that a certain article will receive lots of visits/clicks, can I post it on more than one site?

    I have over 50 sites that have Adsense on them. I is never a problem to have the article posted more than once on different sites. Take for example ezinearticles.com. They have adsense on most of their pages and almost all of the articles on this site are posted on other sites.

    So you're saying that it's completely legitimate to have THE SAME article WITH ADSENSE ads on all of my sites and google will not ban me?!

    There is a line in their TOS saying that it is not allowed to have duplicated content. What did they mean with this?

    Can you point me to where they say this? I can only comment on my own experience and what I see. I have not had a problem with it and article sites are created for the purpose of doing it.

    I can't find it in the TOS. But look at this link http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/AdSense/thread?tid=692e524581a6c4a2&hl=en

    Even the post you point to states "substantially duplicate content". If you are reposting an occasional article, that is hardly substantial duplicate content. I think you have no worries.

    There is no need to worry as said by jilliani as you will find many website having identical content..you can take example of new website.

    if you will copy some of the text of any article and just paste it in google search box then you will see the results that at least five websites on internet has the same data with same wording so this is not a crime i think so but copied data in my opinion will decrease your revenue earning
