Blog your way to profit
June 3, 2008
I have several blogs and for a while I have wondered whether to link to them from each other, or re-use content from one on some of the others.
Blogging is a great way to make a profit, but keeping up with the amount of content creation you need can be difficult. That’s why the idea of re-using your own content, or somebody else’s sometimes, with permission, is so appealing.
However, there’s often talk about a ‘duplicate content penalty’ that Google supposedly slap on you if they find that you’re not producing totally 100% unique content.
Pretty much pure myth, but most people believe it. In fact most people believe it without having any idea why. They haven’t done any research into it. They hear ‘facts’ proclaimed in emails and forums and there’s usually no evidence to back up the point of view - just loud argument.

In fact ‘duplicate content’ made Jon Leger money last month. You can read more about that at shareapost.com
