Duplicate Content: What You Need to Know

One of the most important aspects of any digital media or SEO strategy is avoiding duplicate content. Duplicate content is defined as two or more pages on the internet that are identical or very similar. It is a major issue for search engine optimisation and can have a major impact on your website.

With over 35 years experience, we can work with you to develop an effective and comprehensive SEO strategy that ensures the content on your website remains original and engaging.

The Effects of Duplicate Content

When search engines find duplicate content, they are less likely to show any of those pages in the search engine result pages. As a result, the website visibility in search results is severely reduced, leading to lower numbers of website visits. This can have a major impact on your website’s potential to generate leads or sales.

Duplicate content can also lead to a poor user experience. Visitors to the website may find themselves being sent to pages with very similar content or copies of the same page. This does not provide any real value to the user and may lead to a greater bounce rate on the website as visitors quickly move on to a better website.

How to Avoid Duplicate Content

Zero42 Ltd can help you to develop an effective strategy to prevent or address any duplicate content on your website. The first step is to identify any existing duplicate content that may be present on the website. Once identified, the website content can be modified and improved to make sure that it is unique and engaging.

It is also important to minimise the risk of any future duplicate content appearing on the website. This can be achieved through the use of good website structure, information architecture and meta data. By implementing these techniques, you can make sure that any content that appears on the website is accurate, up-to-date and unique.
