    hi,

    I'm wondering, is there a possibility to harm my serps if Iv got same meta tags on two different websites?

    The 2nd site is partly generating content from the 1st one, they are not identical and there is nothing else duplicate except the meta tags.

    there is like 5% pages with duplicate meta on 2nd site and number of indexed pages with ''duplicate'' tags is increasing every day.

    The pages on 1st site are indexed faster then on the 2st one.

    examples:

    1st: nekretnine-hrvatska.com.hr/index.php?setLang=en
    2nd: croatia-official.com/realestates.php

    sry for my lousy english, I hope i made my self clear enough.

    tx!

    it would be better to have different meta tags.

    especially your title and description tags

    by my experience it does not matter that you hav same meta tags on different sites. Because both the sites are different. That's the other thing if u have same meta tags on same site. So just carry on with your work.
    Second u said about indexing so it depends upon the sites back links, not affected by same meta tags................

    I do not think if it is just the keyword meta tags it matters. However, if it is also the description and title you may have a little problem. Many sites copy meta tags from related sites but you want to make sure that your title and descriptions are as unique as possible.

    Also, you state that one site is generating content from another but nothing is duplicated except meta tags. That confuses me, can you explain that more?

    The site im pulling content of has additional text around the content im using on other site so small part (pictures and contact forms) are duplicated but I think its not that much to hurt serps.


    Thank you all for your answers,
