How to Fix Duplicate Content Issue of Manufacturer Details Paragraph?
-
I am surviving with Google's crawling issue. Google had not index my product pages yet. I have Google a lot and read too many articles to get it done. But, I did not get satisfy answer with it.
I just checked my product pages and found that: There is one tab with Manufacturers Details containing one paragraph.
This content is available on too many product pages with same manufacturer. You can know more by visiting following URL.

So, Does it matter to stop my crawling? If yes so How can I fix it?

I have read entire blog post which was recommend by you. Kate Morris has given us such a great post and suggest to create unique content on product pages.
But, It's quite hard for me to create unique content for Manufacture Detail tab for 7K+ products.
Can I go forward with Ajax or Java Query to make it hidden. So, crawler will not able to crawl that content. What you think about it?
-
No, That content is displaying in all product pages. I am able to find out that content in source code.

Hi CP,
This is an issue for all stores that use the information supplied by manufacturers without any change. Unfortunately the sheer number of people out there with the same content duplicated across hundreds or even thousands of sites, makes it a serious problem.
Search engines will see this as low quality content and it will certainly make it more difficult to rank above your competitors. After all, by copying everyone else, you are not providing anything of extra value for the user.
Katie Morris wrote a blog post recently on this subject - eCommerce Syndicated Content: How to Win. In it she explains how you can improve your content very easily by doing some clever, but simple editing to improve rankings.
Hope that helps,
Sha

Is the extra paragraph content on a different URL or just hidden with Ajax?
look at placing canonical on these pages and having a unique product page for every item.

Partially duplicated content on separate pages
TL;DR: I am writing copy for some web pages. I am duplicating some bits of copy exactly on separate web pages. And in other cases I am using the same bits of copy with slight alterations. Is this bad for SEO? Details: We sell about 10 different courses. Each has a separate page. I'm currently writing copy for those pages. Some of the details identical for each course. So I can duplicate the content and it will be 100% applicable. For example, when we talk about where we can run courses (we go to a company and run it on their premises) – that's applicable to every course. Other bits are applicable with minor alterations. So where we talk about how we'll tailor the course, I will say for example: "We will the tailor the course to the {technical documents|customer letters|reports} your company writes." Or where we have testimonials, the headline reads "Improving {customer writing|reports|technical documents} in every sector and industry". There is original content on each page. The duplicate stuff may seem spammy, but the alternative is me finding alternative re-wordings for exactly the same information. This is tedious and time-consuming and bizarre given that the user won't notice any difference. Do I need to go ahead and re-write these bits ten slightly different ways anyway?

How to fix duplicate content errors with Go Daddy Site
I have a friend that uses a free GoDaddy template for his business website. I ran his site through Moz Crawl diagnostics, and wow - 395 errors. Mostly duplicate content and duplicate page title I dug further and found the site was doing this: URL: www.businessname.com/page1.php and the duplicate: businessname.com/page1.php Essentially, the duplicate is missing the www. And it does this 2 hundred times. How do I explain to him what is happening?

Duplicate Content and URL Capitalization
I have multiple URLs that SEOMoz is reporting as duplicate content. The reason is that there are characters in the URL that may, or may not, be capitalized depending on user input. A couple examples are: www.househitz.com/Pennsylvania/Houses-for-sale www.househitz.com/Pennsylvania/houses-for-sale www.househitz.com/Pennsylvania/Houses-for-rent www.househitz.com/Pennsylvania/houses-for-rent There are currently thousands of instances of this on the site. Is this something I should spend effort to try and resolve (may not be minor effort), or should I just ignore it and move on?

How to use internal tracking without causing duplicate content issues
Hi, We've been testing internal tracking for 4 weeks on a couple of pages using the basic string ?internalcampaign=X, but hese pages have started appearing in the search results. We don't currently have the facility to add canonical tags to correct this. Does anyone have any other solutions to this problem other than deleting the internal tracking or adding filters on the server? Thanks!

Cross-domain duplicate content issue
Hey all, Just double-checking something. Here's the issue, briefly. One of my clients is a large law firm. The firm has a main site, and an additional site for an office in Atlanta. On the main site, there is a list of all attorneys and links to their profiles (that they wrote themselves). The Atlanta site has this as well, but lists only the attorneys located in that office. I would like to have the profiles for the Atlanta lawyers on both sites. Would rel=canonical work to avoid a dupe-content smackdown? The profiles should rank for Atlanta over the main site. This just means that G will drop the main site's profiles (for those attorneys) from their index, correct? No other weird side effects? I hope I worded all that clearly!
