Duplicate content in Top Level Domain and country specific website
- by Ando
I have myproduct.com which is my master product page.
For UK I also own myproduct.co.uk which is a copy of myproduct.com with some localized content: landing page, promotions, prices, and specific tags.
But there is also duplicate content: myproduct.com/FAQs/ is the same as myproduct.co.uk/FAQs/
I don't want to do a redirect from myproduct.co.uk/FAQs/ to myproduct.com/FAQs/ as I don't want people to leave the localized website.
The myproduct.com/FAQs/ is my "go-to" FAQ page and it's the most likely to be up to date - so I want this page to be indexed my search engines, where as I don't care about myproduct.co.uk/FAQs/ being indexed (unless indexing this page would increase my page rank :) ).
What to do now to be SEO friendly & SEO optimal?
Stop indexing of myproduct.co.uk/FAQs/ via robots.txt?
Do some rel="alternate" hreflang="x" configuring on both /FAQs/ page?
Something else?
