What exactly is "Duplicate content?" I mean, to what extent is duplicate used in this case?
If one article is used on two different webpages but all the surrounding "stuff" is different (sidebars, menu, ads, layout, colors, etc.), is that duplicate content subject to penalty from the SEs?
What makes these two identical articles not identical? I could change one word and they would not be identical, but would that still be counted as "duplicate content" by the SEs?
If I totally rewrote the article and used two different versions, with different words (as much as that was possible), different phraseology, different emphasis, but coming to the same conclusion, would that be duplicate content?
Could one change 10% of the words, say, or re-order a couple of paragraphs and be safe?
Where do you draw the line?
