Hi,
No it is not penalised. It doesn't add value either though. Unless the video makes your visitors stay on the page longer, then it is a good reason to use them. I use a lot of 3rd party video's on "how to make...." and these are very good for the "Average Time on page" of my visitors so that could be a good reason to put them on. Who made the video? If you are allowed to use them you can also republish them on your own Youtube/Vimeo account and change the video's name etc... and it will be regarded a "new" video.
Good luck! Regards, Tymen

Would you Consider this High Quality?
Hello, I have a wordpress website that i have updated with a lot of content about the products i sell.

Site wide 301 or canonical links.
Hi guys, I'd like add code to my header file to specify www. as opposed to just http:// for the canonical links across my entire site. How can I do this? I'd like it to be site wide code that I can just add to my header.php file which is included across the site.

Duplicate Content Question
On the home page of my site I have a read more link that takes you to a different URL with basically the same content, just more of it. Home Page: http://www.opwdecks.com/ Read More Link on Home Page: http://www.opwdecks.com/deckmaintain.htm I think this may be affecting my seo. Any suggestions on what I should do about this? Should I add a canonical to the home page and/or on the other page? Both pages are indexed by google. Thanks for any help or tips.
