Is this dulplicate content causing me problems
-
Hi, i am going to try and explain this as best as possible as i am not used to working with k2 that much.
What i have as an example is a page which is here
http://www.in2town.co.uk/Cheap-Flights-Ryanair-News
This page is news about ryanair
now because i am working in joomla and i am working with k2, and i am also making each landing page a front page, i am having problems.
For people who do not use joomla i will explain. For the ryanair page which is a front page, i have to make a category and that category for all my content to go into is called ryaniar-news. Now i have the page above which is for ryanair news but the problem i have got is, because i have a category it brings up all the content as a blog format. so for example here is the category section in blog format. http://www.in2town.co.uk/news/ryaniar-news
Now i have managed to make sure that the articles are not showing but it brings up the title of the pages and i am worried that this will be seen as duplicate content and will damage the main page of http://www.in2town.co.uk/Cheap-Flights-Ryanair-News
I may have set everything up wrong i am not sure but if i have i would be glad if someone can tell me the right way to do it. I do not like the blog format and that is why i use a front page set up so i can have my layout the way i want it.
Can anyone please explain if my set up will damage the main ryanair news page or what i need to do to sort it out please.

Hi Diane,
I don't think that is duplicate content. I used Wordpress before and that is the same way I used to create menus and sort articles.
You simply have articles and sorted out by categories but have multiple pages or ways to access that article. I don't believe that is duplicate content. Duplicate content is when you have the a chunk of content within your website that is similar. However, I don't see that on your website. What i see is you have an article, but can be accessed via the main page and the category page.

Simple Blog Content Question
Which is better? To write my own blog post or, (with permission) use other high DA content on my blog. I'll probably do both, but I'm very curious as to what the search engines prefer or which is better for seo. Thanks in advance!

How do you find your ideas for content
Morning Mozzers, We have finally come to the point where we can start to focus on making good original content. We were wondering how you guys come up with ideas for your content. We are currently doing lots of keyword research to gather ideas and subject areas. But we are struggling with 'angles of attack'. Being an eCommerce site it is easy to do lots of "The 5 best products for this" type of content. But we feel there is limited value in these especially if we want to gain links to our articles in future as valued content. How do you come up with your ideas for more valuable and linkable content especially in very niche product areas. Thanks all.

Content Curation & Newsjacking
Greetings everyone! Its my first post, and I had a question in regards to content curation & newsjacking. I tried to dig around the forum a bit prior to posting this, but havent really found much that covered this topic specifically, but I was wondering if there is anyone here who currently does this, and if so, are there any tips that you'd be willing to share with someone who's just getting into it? Thanks

Promoting blog content
I've created a pinterest board, which kind of serves as a blog also as it tells people how they can save money on their heating bills this winter. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to promote it as a backlinking opportunity? Would it be good to also feature the content on our website? Guest blogging? Any suggestions would be welcomed. Thank you.

Who gets credit for content
Does it really matter if somebody takes your content changes it slightly and republishes it? This is my original article on history of house paints which was also published on ezine in Feb. and from google alerts I discovered this page http://www.franklinpainting.com/blog/home/a-brief-history-of-house-painting/ a minimally modified version. It is not easy to create content so these folks just copied and made a blog post. Their are now many versions of this on the web..who wins?

Ideas for making a mini-content farm more valuable to end users
I run a mini-content farm so to speak - a nationwide computer repair business. We have screened professionals that are specific to one industry. I was wondering if the SEO community would like to offer ideas on how to make this type of site more interesting to end users. What are some things that could be integrated into the site that are 'location specific' that would be of interest to users. I'd like to be able to offer a list of certified, screen, professionals that is searchable by zip code and town. We are planning on showing the quality control rating, as well as current certifications, and a checkbox showing that they were background checked. Customer testimonials are also in the works. Any other ideas?
