Content Duplication Issue

[djshah]

Hi,

Check below my question,

I have 2 websites,
Website1 = main website. Original site
Website 2 = Franchise/affiliate website of website 1 and have same content of website1.

Is there any chance of Google Duplication content issue? If chance then what is the solutions?

How to inform Google about franchise websites?

Main point – we have to do SEO on website2 also, so is there SEO possible for website2 - our franchise/affiliate site?

Hii djshah,

I think you can take the help of url canonicalization. Both url’s will be live and google will use canonical url for removing the content duplication issue.

ya but is it possible to do SEO on canonical urls?

but be careful google is more intelligent than you....
