In the blogs section on HubSpot, users have the opportunity to create multiple blogs. My company uses one blog for Website A and one for Website B. Before Website B was created, we had published some of its blog posts on Website A. When Website B was created, we republished all posts of a certain category on Website B and set up redirects for them from Website A.

Question: If blog posts are published on two different blogs on HubSpot but redirected to one, does SEO suffer as it’s duplicate content? Or do the redirects cover that issue? Data point: HubSpot shows different metrics for these posts depending on which blog you look at them through.

Hi @cbalhorn ,

Having duplicate content on 2 blogs is not a practice that I enjoy, as I believe content is created for one blog, for one persona and not generic for A / B testing on multiple blogs. But let’s go.

When you use an content in one blog that not is unique (is copy), you need to configure the **Canonical URL for not to be penalized**.

Clique to edit you post, go to “ **Settings \> Advanced** ”, and insert the URL Canonical (URL of original content). Look:

Best regards!
