Duplicate content issues for therapy site

duplicate content concerns for therapy site

[Prudence]

Hello all

I'm in the process of setting up a therapy web-site that will contain around 3000 therapists. Each therapist will have their own page with details and information about themselves and their practice.

I am however concerned that this info provided to me will be the same as the content on their own, or other therapist sites. As this would be considered as duplicate content I'm wondering if there are any (ethical) options available to me. Should I start thinking about putting this info in my own words for each individual page?

Any ideas?

You could do that, but it would probably be easier to ask for the information under pre-set paragraph headings - as it's unlikely they have the same paras, then you'd be ensuring they provide at least slightly different content.

I would certainly double check it and ask that they provide a UNIQUE listing...
