I haven’t tested that myself but my guess would be you wouldn’t get penalized for the same content in a different language. I’ll be posting about a script sometime in the near future that allows you to automate multiple languages on a customized site which might be of use…not sure how much it would help a blogger account though. Either way, why would Google penalize you for offering support in multiple languages? Sounds somewhat counter productive for them.

A bit of research into the subject has turned up several resources saying that Google does not penalize for this.

Hi Rob,

I came across your blog today, thru googlelady.

You have a great blog rich with grade ‘A’ contents.

You are doing a good job please keep it going because I’m sure going to be a regular on your blog.

Can I seek your candid opinion on something?

My blog is about Telenovela Stories, right? If I get original content in Spanish language and then translate it into english, then re-write some parts of it and post on my blog can it be called content duplication?

The CD or DVD of the story is not available in my country hence this option.

What do you think? Because I don’t want to be penalised. (read something about it on googlelady).

You can check my blog. I’m a newbie in the blogging.

I eargerly await your response.

Thanks.

I like what you wrote as well. Titus, I am in full agreement with you also. The dude who was trying to argue the point was probably jealous on the inside.

You have a good point here.

Hard work invested in the wrong activity can’t bring the results you expect. The problem is that most people never heard of the Pareto principle and other similar ones, and they invest so much time and energy in the wrong activities (maybe not the wrong, but definately “not so good”).

Good post, congratulations!
