Hello friends,

since one of my websites is completely despised by Google, I tried a lot of things to get ouf this Google hell. From buying indexing services to restructuring and optimzing size&speed, but nothing helped.

However, I found a nugget of hope. I discoverd that a lot of my competitors are running the same websites under different domains. The same layout & content, just a differnt name.

Could this help for my case? I really don't want to delete my current domain, since it's running good on other Search Engines and my social media is under the name.

[ BTW Google bot is somehow loving my privacy policy page, crazy litte critter ]
 
if the domain is penalized / blacklisted it could work with a different domain. But if the content is penalized it probably won't work....

You can probably afford $15 to spend on a new domain to find out...

Ok I'm going to try out with a new domain. The content should not be penalized
 
Maybe they are using PBN's and you don't.
 
Hey friends,
There was an unexpected change, after I created a copy. Google started to reindex my pages on my old website! Even when I use site:domain there are hundreds of serps instead of the previous 3!!

I'm not sure if this has something to do with the copy or if Google changed something, but I'm cautiously optimistic
 
Update: Altough I ran the websites under different domains and GSCs Google still managed to label them as duplate Content and started weirdly interlinking the canonicals.

This means that you can't just host a 1:1 website. Altough I had changed some things about the copy, it didn't seem to be enough. Right now I'm doing more drastic changes.

Out of curiosity (as webmaster), could you give some pointers to those more drastic changes?

That's what I'm doing:
  • Restructure parts of page layout
  • infiltrate long text paragraphs with invisible watermarks and other stuff (My rivals are also doing this)
  • Color change
  • Rephrasing automatically generated text
  • slightly changing source code
It will take time to see if this solves the duplicate issue.

Google's penalty may be momentarily avoided by moving your website to a different domain, but doing so carries some risk. Google may deindex both websites if it finds duplicate content. Instead, identify the cause of your current domain's penalty by removing low-quality backlinks, making sure your content is unique, and looking for manual actions in Google Search Console. Examine the tactics of your rivals as well; do they employ spinning content or canonical tags? The safest long-term solution is to fix your current domain. Since Google favors your privacy policy page, look for problems by contrasting it with pages that do not perform well. Recovery requires patience and the right SEO tweaks.

In that case, Google would load a bullet named "duplicate content" and shoot that bullet into Google search visibility for those websites (my obvious guess based on Google search guidelines).
 
You have good chances that it could work with a new domain, because a lot of SEO is built also via PBNs, backlinks etcs, with a new domain you have a fresh history. But maybe you should also "hide" pages that google could not like, e.g. make it not indexable with robots.txt.

I don't know. My competitors in my niche have tons of duplicate websites and they get millions of visits

I'm still trying. If this won't work out I will delete it, but it's still a big experiment. I already deleted pages and unindexed a ton of pages in the copy.
My strategy is to use the copy as a fundament and branch out the website in such a way that Google won't think its a copy. I'm not sure how the end result will look like. Will it still me twin or a fundamental different website.
