question about site cloning?

I was thinking about cloning a site across 2 or 3 domain names. Is that seo suicide?

Thanks for advise,

Google Translate sites 2 and 3 to avoid the duplicate content penalty.

elite,

You mean convert the text into 2 or 3 foreign languages?

duplicate content only applies to seperate pages within one site. If duplicate content was was a problem with google then articles that were syndicated across many websites, like the wallstreetjournal would cause problems for these huge sites, and they would avoid it (which they dont). You should be ok. Change up the layout of the pages, and the order of the content.

I have two identical websites on 2 different domains around 1 year ago and I never had a problem at the time.
