Knowledge base for seo, announcing new articles on blog (dupe content)
-
Hi all,
Im thinking of creating a knowledge base with all many asked questions in my company. This could be a great Link-bait source but also nice ranking opportunities i think.
But sometimes some new articles are so actual that i also want to blog them.
Can i for example double post them (or post a big excerpt) on the blog and canonicalise it to the KB article?
Will links to the blog have equal value to KB links? And will this work? -
That's the route to go.

I don't see anything wrong in this approach unless you're using the canonical tag. But for KB, I'd suggest to structure in a way that, it's not seems to be the page full of links.. Rather, write 3-4 unique lines with every link. In this way, your KB will look more powerful, credible and because of fresh content the chances of getting it ranked will increase.
Hope this helps!

Yes, you're giving the answers already yourself. Lucky you! Indeed use a canonical tag to point back to the original articles either on the blog or the knowledge base.

Duplicate Content Discovery
I was hit with Penguin on April 24th like a ton of bricks. Luckily my cash cow keyword was kept safe and still is today with even an increase in traffic over the year. With some other main keywords I used to rank far I fell off the board on that day. Since then I have been slowly trying to clean things up as much as I know Today I was sitting down with my coffee and Penguin mindset and I decided to use copyscape again to review duplicate content issues and something I noticed which I either didn't before or didn't think was an issue was my footer. In my footer I used a blurb from some other site in my niche a long time ago. Which I discovered they used from one of the main sites in my niche. Anyways I noticed that my footer is what kept coming up as being duplicate content and was always at an overage of 28% according to copyscape. My question is should I be worried about the footer? Is 28% a lot?

Is it considered as duplicate content ?
Hello, I see a lot of errors on my webmaster tools because of this ajax code on my questions pages of the site (screen) : www.dismoicomment.fr The code : | / ADD ANSWER FORM |

| | $(' Vous avez déjà répondu à cette question. ').appendTo('.answer-add-message'); |
| | }); | I have add a line on my robots.txt : http://www.dismoicomment.fr/robots.txt for remove all urls with /answers/. These urls with /answers/ aren't indexed in google. Do you think that it is dangerous and that can be considered as duplicate content ? 1129546035.png0 -
Duplicate content via syndication?
I have a full text RSS feed of my blog available for users with RSS readers. A few sites have said they would like to republish the unedited feed on their site (so my blog postings show up on their sites with links back to my site embedded). I'm wondering if this is a good/bad idea (to let them republish my postings) and/or if I should do anything in the feed to protect myself from an SEO point of view? Am I at risk of some kind of duplicate content penalty from Google, or will Google figure out that I'm the original source (which would be good) since the blog postings have links back to my site? Thanks!
