Duplicate content on my domain
-
I have several pages on my domain that are using the same content except for changing a paragraph or sentence. Do I need to create unique content, even though much of the information pertains to a feature and is related?
-
Whatever you do don't memorize the content in your efforts to alter it in each variatio. Leave your desk/laptop and have a cup of coffee/tea. Write down the content in your own words. That doen't always work for me, but I am able to get good variations when it does. Another thing I rarely do, but find amusing is I getting a cup of coffee and going where my colleagues go for a smoke. While eavesdropping on their conversation, I try to replace the subject of their discussion with the subject the page I'm stuck on. It is often bizarre but I get a few good expressions and synonyms.

There is a very good chance that some of these pages will be filtered from the search results.
So, your current content has some risk of being filtered. It might not happen but it could.
It is always best to produce unique content.
-
I would write as much unique content as possible, even if there are feature sets that are the same, explain how they are applied to each different product.

I have an eCommerce Site with in some cases, 100s of versions of the same product. How do I avoid "duplicate content" without writing literally 100s of unique product descriptions for the exact same product?
For instance, one item where the only difference is the Sports Team Logo is different, etc... or It comes in a variety of color Variants. I'm using Shopify.

Duplicate Content - Delete it or NoIndex?
Last month I realized that one of my freelancers had been feeding my website with copied / spun content and sadly, there's lots of it. And of course it got my website to be hit hard by the last Panda update. Now that I've identified the content, what the best thing to do? Should I delete it permanently and get 404 errors or should I set the pages' robot meta tag to "nofollow"?

Duplicate content issue in SEOmoz campaign.
Hi, We are running a campaign for a website in SEOmoz. We get a dup content issue warning: http://www.oursite.com and http://www.oursite.com/ are being seen as 2 different urls. Only difference among 2 urls is the trailing slash at the end of the second url. Why is this happening? I was aware of www vs non www but never heard of an issue related to the slash. Thanks for your help!
