Question -- Hello Serge. My question has to do with potential duplicate pages. About two to three months ago, we outsourced some of our site's work to an outside content writing firm. I don't think that they know too much about SEO, since they took some unique content that we had on 8 of our site's pages and re-duplicated that same exact content on another 8 to 10 'new' pages of our site.

Why they did that is beyond me and I shook my head in disbelief when I discovered that about a week ago. All they did was create duplicate pages with the same content on them, but using different links with different keywords in them to link to those newly created pages. So my ultimate question is, can Google or Yahoo penalize us with this? Thanks Serge, you're simply the best, and may God bless you.
