Can Duplicate Content Coexist On Different ccTLDs? Yes

Jun 17, 2011 - 8:15 am 5 by

One of the questions I received during my trip in Spain was how Google handles duplicate content across ccTLDs, localized domains.

Now I see the same question posted in a WebmasterWorld thread, where Tedster answers it dead on:

No negative effect. Matt Cutts has re-affirmed this, even recently. Localizing the language idioms in your content, currency names and so forth - that is the only piece I'm aware of.

Yes, Google's Matt Cutts answered it and I played the video at the workshop at ISDI - here is Matt's video:

Thanks Matt!
