I am guessing that your content ranks below the original content that has been published on the other site.
Just to be safe what I would do is properly curate the content - I would introduce the article and then leave a small summery to the bottom of it - I would also link back to the original -
Duplicating content that is also on other sits is not necessarily a bad thing, it's true the original site is likely to get the bet ranking for that content, press releases, news reports, the constitution are examples of content routinely duplicated.
You need a certain amount of original content to not appear to be an automated scraper site, which search engines don't like. Unauthorized copies of others content can have legal implications, crediting the source with a link is often enough to prevent complaints.
The more harmful form of duplicate content is within your own site, things like a print formatted version of a page can if nothing else dilute the page's search ranking. The clean solution for internal dup content is the Canonical tag, used to mark the primary copy of the content.
If the dublicate content is from multiple domains of your own website than it will not be considered dublicate.
You can have duplicate content in your site but only till a certain level means 10 to 15% but not more than that. Google has launched a new algorithm" Humming Bird" which only takes unique content, crawls and indexes it. So if you have more duplicate please remove it as when google will find it will it will remove your site from the search engine.
Google will always ignore duplicate content and it may also leads to blacklist your site
Copying with permission is not a matter..
but it should be unique....
when you get copywriter content from others when it was already published in any other sites... i would recommend you to just ignore them.. or you should remold it using your own words....
and Google's new release humming bird algorithm... its Just Ignore all the duplicate content and it crawl and index only uniwue content in there index so...
better remove that content or remold it...
thank You
Being indexed has nothing to do with rank so just because your dupe content is indexed doesn't mean google will rank it and it probably won't because google hates dupe content.
I would definitly put fresh content which google loves and make sure its SEO optimized.
If you have any more questions hit me up. Im awesome at SEO

Google can harm your site ranking. I think, first you should to remove the duplicate content.
and
second, you can use canonical tag for duplicated content. so google will not harm your site. to know about canonical tag, search in google.
It's not recommended but OK in moderation. If you have too much dup content you'll get a Panda penalty. You should also link to the source. If you use the rel="canonical" meta tag it will stop the page from being considered for SEO purposes and will be Panda-safe.
Copy material can damage your website very poorly as Search engines might have even penalized your website. So, try some excellent SEO support to create sure the duplicate material is ignored by Search engines or tell them to absolutely eliminate it if possible. There's a organization who are providing test offer support until they take you to web the first page. You can try them.
Google Webmaster tool is the best free tool for find duplicate content in any webpage.
Hi, I have some duplicate content on my site. I called a few website owners who's article I wanted published and published on my site (well written).
Now, My page (with the duplicate content) is still indexed and ranked page 2 for an appropriate keyword. I just wanted to confirm that the content isn't harming my site.
In short, since Google has my page indexed #15-20 does that mean the duplicate content on my site isn't hurting my site ?
Or do i have to remove them ?
suggestions or fixes are appreciated.
Remove that dupliacte content as soon as possible...
dont know when will google catch it,..and you have to pay for it..
the content you post should be original
