    Hi guys,

    I'm just concern if I would be penalized by SE if I have multiple websites but has similar templates/layout and pages.

    Please I need advice..

    Thanks in advance

    IF you are saying about design, layout number of pages and same products then you wud not penalize. But if you have same content for all of ur sites then you wud penalize..................

    I don't believe the same layout/template will affect anything. There are actually tons of websites out there that have the same templates, and they do well. Like what was said above, it is the content that matters. The words on the page are all that really affects your rankings. Focus on making unique content and don't worry about the templates.

    nothing with same template or design.Search Engines go for content.If you are using some free templates then try to edit most of the things.

    if you use same templates,layout, pages that is not penalized by SE. i think you are using duplicate content, bzc your site is penalized by SE!
