One of the main downfalls of websites is that they are unaware of duplicate content. If your web page has pages that use similar text,
such as a disclaimer or long piece of information in the footer than you may have a duplicate content issue. What does this mean? It
means the Google may penalize that web page and decide not to include it in it’s index. That also means that this page cannot pass page rank. The good news is that it is not that tough to weed out duplicate content in most instances. A good measure to use is to make sure that you match the number of duplicate content words on your site, with at least as many page unique words. That will steer you
clear of this issue. Use our duplicate content checking tool to determine if you are at least 50% unique with you on page text.
