Duplicate blogs across different domains
-
Hi,
I am running a blog for several English speaking websites ( e.g Australia, UK ) and I plan doing SEO for these websites. I want to know if it's a must changing all the blogs for these countries in order to avoid Duplicate Content ?

You really shouldn't be creating duplicate content of any kind for multiple clients. Even on different domains for businesses in different countries, this is not the best SEO strategy for you or the businesses. Work hard to create valuable, unique content ideas that the customer of the business may actually want to read, digest, and share.
If there's really no content for the business or industry, don't have a blog. Find other ways to include great content on the main pages to ensure there's robust, strong content for users to see and search engines to crawl and index appropriately.

I would like to use the blog posts I have for each country ( which are duplicated ) to target that specific country with the same content. What do you think ? what would you suggest regarding this.
Best,
Andrei

Hi Andrei,
It won't be necessary but also depends on the structure that you'll be using to set up your SEO campaigns. You could use the same content and pages to also do link building for other countries but next to that you could also change the content and make sure it will be more targeted to the other audiences in different countries.

Regarding internal duplicate content
Suppose two of my webpages from the same site are having 30% to 35% common content. The reason behind this common content is that I put same data and images (in the main content area) since both pages are partially related. But, title tag, meta description, h1 tag, urls are different.

Do Blog Tags affect SEO at all anymore?
We're trying to standardize the use of tags on our site amongst writers/editors, and I'm trying to come up a list of tags they can choose from to tag posts with - and telling them to use no more than 10 (absolute maximum) per post. We are also in the process of migrating to a new CMS, and have 8 defined categories that will all have their own landing page within our "News" section. TLDR: Do blog tags have any impact on SEO anymore? Are they solely meant to help users find articles related on popular topics, or does creating a tag for a popular topic help to improve organic visibility? Full Question: With the tag standardization, I want to make sure we're creating the most useful and effective tags; and the UX/SEO sides of my brain are conflicted. To my understanding, creating a tag about a high volume topic in an industry helps establish the website's relevance to Google/other search engines about that topic and improves overall relevance; but the tag feed page (ex: http://freshome.com/tag/home-protection/) isn't really meant for organic search visibility. So my other question is, is it worth it to noindex the tag pages in the robots.txt? Will that affect any benefit to increased relevance for Google (if there is any)? I'm interested to hear others' thoughts and suggestions. Thanks in advance!

Duplicate content, which seems not to be duplicate :S

E-Commerce Site - Duplicate Content
We run an e-commerce site with about 250,000 SKUs. Certain items, such as a micro USB car charger, will be applicable to several different phones. Example: http://www.wirelessemporium.com/p-165787-samsung-galaxy-proclaim-illusion-sch-i110-heavy-duty-car-charger.asp http://www.wirelessemporium.com/p-165856-sony-xperia-ion-4g-lte-att-heavy-duty-car-charger.asp As one can imagine with so many items, unique content for each item description page can be a challenge. What would be the best way to address this on a large scale?
