We all know that “CONTENT IS KING“! – but this only really applies when the content you are talking about is unique. The content you get from the article directories, including the big ones, such as EzineArticles, GoArticles and ArticleBase, is DUPLICATE CONTENT!

You all probably already know that the search engines, especially Google, frown on duplicate content on your website or blog. Some say that Google penalizes sites that have duplicate content and reduces their position in the search engine ranking pages or SERPS.

To be honest such a penalty has never been proved, but there definitely is a downside to having duplicate content on your site. If you need web content and you want your site to rank well,  it needs to be UNIQUE CONTENT! But is there such a thing as Free Website Content that is also Unique?

When you have content on your site or blog that is also found elsewhere on the internet it is most likely that Google will consider the page with that same content, which has the most authority to be the originator of the content and that website will rank for it, however all other web pages on other sites with that content will just be ignored and not ranked. More like a duplicate content filter than a penalty!

So we have established that if you are going to put content on your site then it does need to be unique to rank in Google’s search engines results pages. Getting web content is easy and much is free, but…
