Todd,
Thanks for your response. Allow me to expand on our challange. We are an ACE Hadware store and sell hardware online. We have about 60,000 SKU's in our online stores. We have two problems when it comes to duplicate content.
First, all of our product content comes from ACE Hardware's catalogue. Since ACE Hardware also has an online store, all of our content will be exactly the same as ACE Hardware's. So it's duplicate.
Second, we frequently copy manufacturer's information and insert it into our site to help decribe a produc't features and benefits. So once agasin it duplicate.
With 60,000 SKU's it's not possible to rewrite all the copy, besides how many different ways can you describe a hammer.
Thanks,
Paul
