    Hey guys,

    have some doubts here... I have an article that I wrote last time on my old expired domain, site doesn't exist anymore and I like this article alot. So I am thinking of using this article again on my new domain, will google penalize my article?

    Please give comments and advise thanks.

    Why not spin it a little to be sure. I have old articles that I know google has indexed and wanted to use on my new site as well. Not many, jut a few. So I got my trusted wordprocessor out, open up my article and thesauraus magic did the rest.

    how old is the old domain.

    If it is an year old then there is no issue of duplicate content. But always play safe, no one knows about Google. Try to change some keywords and title also.

    if you previous domain do not exist anymore? you can still use the article even without spinning it. Google will give a new impression on this. This is just like redirecting. When a certain URL is not existing anymore, the redirected one will take the reputation.

    Re-use is with little more twist or improvement in the content.

    Also check if that article wasn't copied somewhere and already indexed/ranking..

    i think it will be good as new article as the old page are gone now. but you may need to spin a little when submitting it to other article directory

    If you re-write the article, that would be best.

    hey if you use your old article then google will consider it spam so better is you can rewrite your articles or spin your article.

    Why Google should penalize an expired domain and its content? Your domain is no longer exists the article has been deleted from Google database too. But if you want to write it on another website, its more safety to write it again and change it a little.

    Just use it. It's OK. Google won't penalize you for just one article.
