Would adding a news page hurt my site ranking ?
-
Hi Mozers
I was thinking about adding an industry news page where we would post articles written by others but give proper citation and linking.
Would a page like this hurt my SEO ?
Thank You

Hi Pzabarko,
An industry news page can be a great addition to any website if the content is handled professionally. If your page is cultivated with value-adding, well-cited content, then this will likely help your website in a variety of SEO factors. However, if your news page consists of little more than quoted (and subsequently, duplicated) content and does not add beyond the content derived from other sources, then Google will more likely see the page simply as duplicate content

Any article sites that actually still rank welll?
Hi All! After the havoc of Panda and Penguin - are there any article sites that still rank decently for the articles within? I'm not talking about using articles to get backlinks - I want to attract visitors to the articles themselves because of the message within the article. Yes, I know that for lots of reasons my own blog would be better. In addition to that, if you want to spread the message - which sites are recommended? Thanks! Aviva
