Avoiding Google Duplicate Content For Technology Sites
I have came across this question from a guy in Google webmaster forums asking, what about technology sites where it becomes inevitable that you need to use the datas that has been used by thousands of other sites across the net? like if you are running a blog about mobile, it become inevitable that you need to provide the details that are given out by the mobile company and you cannot practically alter those datas and substitute it with your own and same thing goes with recipes too.
He asks does Google has any special rules for these sites that it permits these sites to have duplicate contents?
Question is sensible but the answer is no, Google doesn’t have any exceptional rule to these sites and if it so, every spammer in the world would start to run the sites which has exception practically ruining these niches. Though you have to use the same datas provided by company on these technology sites and also sites which deals with recipes. However there is a difference in which how every person forms a particular sentence, no two person has the similar way to explain about anything, everyone carries their own way of explaining things and everyone’s content is unique in that way, that’s why we can see though there are lots of people talking about the same thing over and over again in the internet, but there is not a single instance where two person writing about the same thing is an exact match of each other.
you can very well use the datas provided by the company in your technology sites but its not enough if you just use those datas to explain about a particular product in your sites, you need add some extra details as well, like a review of the person who already used the product or if you are experienced with the product you can very well add your own view on it, you can mention to whom a particular product will be useful, what age group of people might like the product etc.. adding those contents to your technology will make it look more unique from others and also avoids your site being penalized.
