Duplicate Content
Matt Cutts replies with specifics on duplicate content
Now, think about it like a search engine who has come across the following situation:
- Two pages appear to have roughly the same content
- Page B has a subset of page A’s content
- Page A was published before page B
- Both pages use images from page A’s domain.When it comes time to rank the two pages, which one do you put first? If you are a user, which page would you like to see at the top of your search results? How would you feel if you were site A?
